Makes Dawkins, Hitchens et al. look like bumbling incompetents
This book is incredible!
D'Souza is more philosophically astute than Dennet, has a better grasp of the scientific method than Dawkins and frankly makes Sam Harris look like a six year old with a below average intelligence.
PLEASE READ THIS BOOK. It is well researched, and the facts are backed up by a brilliant intellect. D'Souza faces his opponents head-on. No excuses. No compromising. Only facts and logic. Oh yes, and that very passé Christian virtue called honesty.
The only problem with the book is the title. It gives the impression that this book is a defence of
Christianity
, while it is effectively an attack on the hypocrisy, lies and sloppy thinking of modern atheism. EVERY RELIGIOUS PERSON, REGARLESS OF THEIR FAITH, SHOULD OWN (AND STUDY) A COPY OF THIS BOOK. Leading atheists like Michael Shermer have conceded that this book raises the current debate on religion to a new level.
Anyone who gives this book less than 4 stars is either an unthinking atheist fundamentalist, someone trying to learn English in a month, or an idiot.

Evidence of This Book's Power...
...is contained in the negative reviews on this very site. As military pilots say: "You know you're over the target when you start receiving flak." Obviously, this book has upset some atheists to the point that they feel a strong need to lash out with surprisingly vitriolic attacks.
It is rare for any work of reason and intellect to appeal so strongly to my faith. This book, though, has helped my faith by strengthening the "logical" reasons for God's existence. Powerful, well-backed arguments are plentiful in Mr. D'Souza's work-- and this book is no exception. This has, of course, caused the atheists to slam it because it dares to show that their "facts" and "proven theories" are mostly not so.
I was raised to pray for atheists, and I do to this day (I realize that would make many of them very angry to hear). Such sadness and loneliness must be contained in a heart that is-- atheist or not-- still human. Mr. D'Souza's arguments show us that most atheists lash out at the idea of hell more so than heaven. This makes perfect sense, given the selfish and sinful nature of man. Still, in their lonely and sad hearts, even the atheists are "programmed" to seek their maker... and, whether they like it or not, they will eventually find Him. How much better for them to do it while they still have life in them.
A
great book
for anyone with an open mind and a searching heart. I don't look for it to change the ideas of the hardened... but it will certainly help those of us (both religious and not) who are not so inclined to arrogance of thought.

great defense of historic Christianity
Dinesh D'Sousa presents a well-reasoned, historically-sound defense of basic truths of
Christianity
. The book's scope is enormous, all well-reasoned. It is a re-read as well as a
great book
to give to friends whose problem with one doctrine prevents them from examining other basic tenets of Christianity.
I have only read the overview!
First: I am Christian
Second: I have not read this book
Third: I gave it 5 stars because I'm not trying to "convert you with a keyboard"
but after reading the overview done by amazon, it looks to me that the book is going to prove
christianity true
. does the book do this? because it would be quite funny if it did because of the title.
Dont be mad just becasue i didnt read the book...
thanks
