This book was more than I was expecting. It does a great job describing the reasons one might want to abandon Christianity, without pulling any punches. It does an alright job at giving some reasons to stay.
What I wasn't expecting was the inspiring message in the third section, describing the possibility of a more open, all-encompassing view of how we could live, whether as Christians or not.

The book doesn't necessarily deliver mind-blowing revelations in every chapter, and some passages flow better than others, but the author was able to find ways to clearly articulate feelings that I've felt for a while. I found myself remarking at, and making note of several lines per chapter, which is pretty good as far as I'm concerned!

I only wish there was a version of this book written for an audience that didn't grow up in the Christian church, so that I can share this vision of the world with my friends from a more secular background!
