This book is by far, the funniest and best book I've read. I laughed out loud on just about every single page! I'd read excerpts to anybody who would listen. And I was fortunate enough to meet A.J. Jacobs at a local book signing while reading the story, get him to sign the book, and take a picture with him. (Which he didn't do for a year because after all, the bible says not to make graven images of yourself)
Regardless of your religious beliefs and views, this book is not offensive. I am a non-denominational Christian and thought it was hysterical. To interpret the bible in its most literal way makes for a good story. I especially laughed at the part where the author actually STONES another man. Literally threw rocks at him. Well, more like pebbles. But still.
My all time fave that I definitely think I will read again and again throughout the years... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
