To be honest I found that confusing and difficult to understand - something was "off" that I could not put my finger on, but your post makes me realise that yes, it did seem hypocritical.

I didn't really see it as such. I felt like he was advocating unconditional love towards everyone, not just people who believe like him.

I think religious tolerance is very difficult to achieve. Usually people tend to get too defensive about their own ideas, religious or otherwise. People often forget that while dismissing someone's religious ideas, they are being intolerant and are guilty of the same non-inclusiveness as they are accusing other's of. So, its easy to see why the author might have come across as hypocritical. But, I think he might not have realized this at all.

I think the author is sharing his personal experiences and beliefs. Spirituality is about finding your own truth. His soul is not bound by anything, its free.

He seems to advocate unconditional love (something he doesn't see in traditional Christianity because of its objective definitions of good and evil) but even in his own belief (which he considers not to be a belief at all), there are still many criteria needed for those who want to achieve peace, or happiness or whatever good he deems worth reaching for. Also, his basis for rejecting traditional Christianity is not very clear. There was no mention of a logical and thorough research to understand the Christian faith. The only thing I could remember that he mentioned was his conversation with his own father when he was still a child. This was about how a good God can send someone to hell. It was not explained however, how God respects the freewill of people and how it is the person himself who has the ability to reject God and thus go to hell if he does not desire to go to heaven.

I totally agree with you. The book lacks depth in the knowledge on how God operates

This is even more hypocrisy to justify his own beliefs as rational and that of the other woman as hypocrisy. I also disagree with either of them boosting their religion with a threat for non-followers.

Sounds to me like he's putting himself in the place of the very God he purports not to believe in. Who is he to pass judgment?

I think the authors dismissal of the Christian faith is a case of 'fighting what you don't understand'.
