The Bitter Pill of Truth II

"To those searching for truth -- not the truth of dogma and darkness but the truth brought by reason, search, examination, and inquiry, discipline is required. For faith, as well intentioned as it may be, must be built on facts, not fiction -- faith in fiction is a damnable false hope." Thomas Edison Your refill is ready. The medicine is the Bitter Pill of Truth. Are you ready and willing to take it? This next installment of the Bitter Truth series is another dose of strong medicine for the believer and non-believer alike. Whether you are strong in your faith and want to see what new arguments are being brought forth, or if you are insecure and are having doubts about your Judeo-Christian faith, and even if you are among the heathen, heretical, and soulless lot that is without faith-like myself-part two of the Bitter Pill series is for you. Many books about faith, or the lack thereof, never take a good, hard look at God. Those that favor God are biased, but can you blame them? Those that discount God, or criticize Him...well, some are great and insightful works, but many pull punches. I do not. This book will entertain a slew of new and thought-provoking ways to study the character of God. Is God the kind, compassionate creator that His faithful present to the world, or is He something else? Is God on our side and does He have our best interests at heart, or is He the vain, jealous Lord and Master He proclaims Himself to be? If one is to truly examine the character and steadfastness of God, one must not wear kid gloves, and one must be able to dissect not just what is in the holy texts and dogma of the Judeo-Christian faith, but also one must look at history and the world all around us-nay, the universe. Get your glass of water, make sure your skin is nice and thick if you must, and get ready to delve into a character study of the Almighty as you have not seen before. The truth hurts...are you sure you want it?
