What a wonderful volume by Ray! (I know, I was his Copy Editor for this edition.) After reading this, the atheists will have to use a scraper to remove their "There is No God" bumper stickers! If you... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is one of the best books I've read ina long time, I got this when I was one a mission trip to New Zealand, with Teen Mania (teenmania website) and this has totally helped my witnessing to athiests, among other people! Mr. Comfort is an awesome writer, and very funny! If you're looking for a book that will change your witnessing experience, this is your absolute best bet!In Him
Eye-opener; not perfect but hey it's just one book!

Yes, agreed, it won't "convert" any hardened skeptic within the first 10 pages. And some of the arguments are based on illustrations and analogies (CS Lewis is often criticized for the same method).However, it will raise a lot of questions for those who think the whole "God-or-not" debate is all cut-and-dried.And for Christians who are looking to bring up "things of God" with their friends, family etc. there are a lot of issues and illustrations that can act as springboards... For the 90% of people we deal with in witnessing who are not PhD in philosophy and "master debaters" this book is a good "giveaway" to open their eyes a bit.For the other 10%, who feel no point in even "debating" because they automatically exclude the non-physical/supernatural reality, well I would have to suggest you instead point them to some thought-provoking and logically solid commentaries and arguments found on "http://str.org/" - Stand To Reason. Yes, folks, biblical Christianity is reasonable and defensible! ...But then again some people are just so self-righteous and afraid of accountability, they will never be convinced ("And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not." Acts 28:24)PS: For more of Ray's teachings, visit [the ray comfort website] and listen to the free online audio. It just might be life-changing or life-saving! *It'll at least make you laugh quite a bit (if you have "the gift of discerning quality humour", that is.)
excellent as simple, down to earth reading

I personally thought that Mr Comfort did an excellent job of taking an age old debate and putting it into easy to understand ideas. I'll be the first to admit that the reading doesn't always present itself in as highly intillectual. However, the ideas and arguments that Comfort makes are enough to be convincing and make this book a definate must-read for believers and non-believers like.
I Laughed till I Cried!!! Incredibly Clever and Witty

This is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to prove the existence of God to non-believers. It uses the very same logic that athiests use to say that there is no God to show that there is no real proof that that person even exists. It is soooo funny!! Even the non-believer will be laughing!
