Negative Positive
Title: Not for serious truth seekers
Review: I bought this book looking forward to a scholarly critique of the Bible. What I found was a poorly written, poorly researched, poorly documented, poorly argued book that will satisfy only those who have already made up their mind about the Bible. It is not for the genuine truth seeker who seeks to weigh and evaluate evidence. THe author uses inflamatory language to degrade people who do believe in the Bible. Instead of consulting primary souce material that is readily available, the author quotes from secondary and tertiary sources, mostly from anti-Christian sources. The author claims that this work was his Doctor of Theology thesis. I can't quite understand how any reputable university could accept this work as scholarly research. The author and publishers comments are pure hype. Truth cannot be objectively evaluated by someone who has an ax to grind with whatever group he is evaluating. IF you are an honest truth seeker, this is not the book for you.
