Title: An Owner's Manual on How to Sin
Review: Well written, but troubling book that encourage Catholics to be...well, not Catholic. As Catholics we are all called to become saints. While for most of us (myself included) that is a slow and laborious process, and most of us are far, far from being saints, the reality is that "good enough" simply isn't good enough. I remember when I was in school, if I aimed just for a pass or a B, I usually got a poor result. If I aimed for a perfect test paper, I would usually get an A.Catholic truth and dogma has stood the test of time (2000 years). That it is difficult to adhere to, there is no doubt. I prefer to try to configure my life to an ideal, rather than to being just "good enough".I recommend that faithful Catholics stay away from this book, or simply read it as a testament to what is wrong in our society today. Do NOT read it as a guide for configuring your lives.
