Carrie over at Reading to Know has a new review up of Is Christianity Good for the World? Her review is particularly interesting because she offers a rather unique approach. Instead of looking for a Christian debate “victory,” Carrie suggests that Hitchens’ arguments are the most fascinating part of the book.
I think one of the most interesting aspects of Is Christianity Good for the World? for me was Hitchens’ statement that he would be disgusted by the concept of forgiveness. …. I find that completely and utterly fascinating. He simultaneously rejects forgiveness for both himself and for anyone else. He makes a bold statement that to forgive is suicidal.
Read the rest of the review here. (And if you haven’t picked the book up yet, we have some nicked and scuffed copies available over here for only $5 each.)
