Im not the greatest reader, unfortunately. When i read books, its because of prolounged exposure to a personality i enjoy. And even then, i feel like the writer tries to convince me instead of informing me. Ive bought Jordan Petersons book and i dont think that will be any different. I read Dawkins' The God Delusion and although it was super fascinating, and has good arguements, i just think that its a book that tries to convince you that faith is illogical to the point of (almost) insanity, not that it just challenges the views from a neutral point of view Hard to explain for me, in a part because im not a native English speaker, but also because faith makes both sense and not for me >_< haha :P Is there some kind of video that explains this book? (it does sound interesting) I use way too long to decide to read a book to say that i will give it a fair chance to read it :/ --- 3DS FC: 3067-6595-2576 I'm like Jon Jones, I sound like Sean Combs and I got trombone size stones like John Holmes -Chael Sonnen <cite>Alkeez posted [p:898667413] in What are y...
