Not even to the “how insurance doesn’t work” chapter yet and I’m already thinking about how to get my neighbors/friends to make our own insurance company.

To be honest, I wasn't sure if I was enjoying this book in the first 100 or so pages. As it progressed though and a lot more of the character's personalities and backgrounds started to become clear (and interconnected), I think this book really started to shine and by the end of it I really did not want to have to put it down and start a new book.

I enjoyed this! I think everyone has the routines in life they get joy from and wants to do them well. Some things just come naturally to others. Personally I enjoy more variety and change (and social life) and so it was slightly harder to relate to Keiko, but I appreciate the aspects of having a calling, whatever that might be. The societal stuff got kinda incel/red pill-ish at times, especially with Shiraha and I don’t really understand the point of his character and ultimately what purpose he served other than to be a person I rooted against in the book. It’s a quick read and I pretty much knocked it out in one sitting.

I think while an important book to read, it is extremely difficult for me personally to read this book given the current state of everything. I’m already against the current state of religion in American politics, and while again understanding how we got to this point is important, currently I do not need to need to be sold more reasons to be upset about this. Highly recommend if you are interested in learning more about this, but just not the right time for me to read this book.

Jesus was no sissy-he was a ‘star athlete’ who could ‘become your life's hero.’ The Christian life was ‘total war,’ and Jesus was ‘Our Great Commander.’ Graham's Jesus was ‘a man, every inch a man,’ the most physically powerful man who had ever lived.
