"The truth of the world is that there is no longer any truth." This is my favorite saying that keeps spinning in my head because I always wonder what to believe. This quote implies that we held many beliefs that we thought were true but turned out to be false. We cannot differentiate between what is true and false. This is as a result of our minds being programmed without realizing it. The book, Divine Simplicity Day 3: Unity In The Community, by Yasher Echad EI, is a non-fiction book that focuses on how we are actually being manipulated by celebrities and the media who make us believe certain things are true. Yasher stands against TV shows such as "Martin's TV Show." He believes that people are so engrossed in the plot of such a TV show that they think that the two characters, Martin and Gina, on the show should be real-life spouses.

He went further by addressing television as TELL-LIE-VISION as a result of the lies it continues to tell audiences, which they find entertaining and realistic. Aside from the book talking about how the human mind is actually being programmed, it also talks about parenting advice, transgenderism, racism, religion, and many others.

What I like about this book is that it provides a lot of hard facts, citing many movies, songs, celebrities, and Bible verses to back up the author's point of view. The book is also educational. For example, I got to learn about the surgical procedure of transgendering. I never knew that surgery has advanced to the point where changing one's sexual organs is a possibility. Finally, the author did pretty well by making the length of the book short. The length of the book is what attracted me to reading it, since I am not the patient type when trying to find the end of a text.

The lack of table content is what I dislike about the book. I enjoy rereading some sections of the book, but owing to the lack of table material, I find it difficult to locate them. In addition, the book's title does not correspond to the content. When I first heard the title of the book, Unity in the Community, I expected it to clearly discuss diversity and how to bring the entire community together, but it instead mostly focuses on the immorality that is happening in today's society. Thirdly, some of the information in the book is unnecessary. For example, the part of the book where it talks about parenting toolkits is not new and provides no additional information to us. Finally, the author put forth a lot of scholars' works, but there was no reference section that mentioned where he got their work from.

The book is written in a compelling style with plenty of supporting evidence. So it's simple to figure out what point the author is trying to make. However, the book contains some grammatical errors and is badly constructed, making it difficult to read and detracting from my enjoyment of it. As a result, I'd give it 2 out of 4 stars.

This book is recommended for everyone interested in learning about the evil happening in modern society. However, this book isn't appropriate for people who are gay, lesbians, transgender, or atheist since they may find it offensive to read.
