Review title: As useless as prayer
Product review: I couldn't believe I spent money on this crap. The Secret is a book designed to lull you into a false sense of security. Rhonda would have us believe we live in a kinder-gentler universe. How about asking that, if you could, to the murder victims of last year if they agree with that. I'm not even sure if the famous people she mentions in the book actually agreed with that assessment either. Namely, Einstein. Or else why would he have fled Nazi Germany? I wish it were as easy as she makes it seem, that all you have to do is wish upon a star. That the Universe will reward you with whatever you wish for, as long as you believe. Great con job! I'm all for philosophy that sees the world at it's ugliest, and then goes from there. Like Schopenhauer, or Nietzche. If someone wishes to hide their head in the sand, this is definitely their book.
