The book is really interesting as it explores science deeply. I enjoyed the book but the error in the book was a bit of a distraction. The author should have done more on editing.

The author was very expressive in his narrative. Dare I say he was also persuasive. I found his thoughts on spiritual matters like God and the Trinity fascinating. It's a shame the book was riddled with a plethora of grammatical and structural errors. However, I found it a unique book. In my opinion, I'd give it a 3.

I would give it 4 stars.
I enjoyed this book as it made me think and ask questions. There were many things I agreed with yet many things I questioned, thought about and reasoned over. Some things I still question and a few I still have a disagreement. Overall I found the book informative and enjoyable and I learned a few things throughout. The author came from a catholic background but it relates very well to religion in general. The main point being no matter what religion or way of life, following Jesus command to love God and love one another transcends religious lines and interpretations.

I would have enjoyed this book if not for the frequent punctuation and grammatical errors. I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars. I loved that the author presented an unbiased opinion about God and religion.

I thought this book was a refreshing read. It is rare to see people question what they have been taught since they were a child, let alone go through an entire journey to find some answers. I personally found the author's commitment very inspiring. I also really appreciated how he was able to keep an unbiased and logical perspective throughout the entire book.

In my opinioion, Hunt has not done an extensive reasearch to write this book. There are no concrete evidance or sources to back up most of the points she discusses in the book. The readability of the book also effected by the grammertical errors found in the book, which one can suggest further rounds of proof reading. Hope the author looks into these aspects quite seriously and come up with better books in the future.

I would honestly give this book 3 out of 4 stars.As much as the book contains several grammatical errors,from my perspective,its not only about errors but the concepts being discussed by the author.He is bold enough to handle issues in the Bible in full length and that makes me contented.

The frequent mentions in the responses to this question of the typos and errors in this book make me want to avoid reading it despite its positives. It's a shame when I writer doesn't ensure proper editing prior to publication. I feel like it undermines the point of the book as well as harms the quality of the reading experience.

I would normally read a book describing God's nature and organized religion with an open mind. However, in this case, I just couldn't. Whatever postulations he made should have come with strong backup. Unfortunately, everything were opinions without logical backup. Secondly, the errors were too much to ignore. I rate it one out of four stars.

This book has a 1 out of 4 star rating and without hesitation.
I did not like it at all and I put a lot of will to read it.
Grammar mistakes, editing problems, make it material for a good editorial review. To that we add a delicate theme and not suitable for all audiences to address it.

I am also a practicing Catholic, perhaps not one of the most strict and conservative. I am in addition a student of the history faculty, which gives another perspective on the subject. But I am of the opinion that the issue of faith and its approach is always something delicate in the best of cases.
The risk of being shocking to non-practitioners, serious practitioners and other religious practices within Christianity, Judaism or Islam even faiths outside those of Abrahamic origin stand always a possibility. Which takes away the public from the book even within the church itself.

Quotations to other books can be confusing for those who have not read these works, even for those who read them to us in their original languages. This makes quotations obscure and difficult to understand out of specific context.

The main character is lost, covered by these previously detailed themes, making the book somewhat unattractive for my taste. The lack of support for their arguments takes away their strength, and the plot is still severely battered by this.

I will be giving this book a two out of four stars. It definitely needs to undergo further editing as the typos were nearly unbearable. I did not go with a three simply because between the errors and the real lack of direction. It is what I truly disliked about the book. However, I did like the viewpoints discussed. Theories are always fun to read, but it was all mostly philosophy rather than substantial.

While I thought the book had many interesting pieces of storytelling and the flow of the book was well done, the grammatical errors were frustrating to continuously read throughout the book. The majority of the errors were very obvious which detracted from the quality of the book.

I generally love books about controversial issues especially religion. We all have opinions about the existence of God and the author made his opinion known even though not in the most easy to read way. The book would have an higher rating if not for it's lack of, or poor editing. I rate it 2 out of 4.

As an English teacher... the grammar and spelling errors were just too much for me. I see those all day long with my students! I don't need to read them in a book. 1 out of 4
