No not at all. I found it easy to read and understand and the scripture was just a supplement for me. I only remember what I was taught growing up.Grace Bela wrote: ↑13 Jun 2020, 15:22With all of the Scriptural references and personal stories in this book, I don't think readers have to be too familiar with the Bible as long as they know a little bit about the Christian faith.Zoe Luh wrote: ↑28 May 2020, 16:01 I'm also noon-religious. I haven't read this book yet, I've been debating it strongly because it seems like it has a powerful message, but I'm just not that familiar with the Bible. I think we could probably both learn from the book by looking less at the specifics of the stories and more at the general message.

Well, I took quite a deep glimpse of the book. The author used His incredible imaginations to fill in possible spaces in the Bible, in the book of Genesis; furthermore, the author did not change any context of the Bible. The book sounds theological but it is fictional.Kirsi_78 wrote: ↑30 May 2020, 06:44 I have been somewhat religious quite many years so I have absolutely no idea what it feels like to read this book for someone who's not religious. It would be interesting to hear how it was, once you're done with the reading! Anyway, quite many of the laws and rules of our society come from the Bible and christian faith. Also the idea of what is good and what is bad in humans is more or less based on the Bible. This being said, I believe there are aspects in this book that also give great value to a person who is not religious. Naturally I might also be wrong with my reasoning... If you read the book, please do tell how it was!

Everyone can relate to stories with humanity at its core, so I say everyone should give this a try.
