Summary: Longing for the book to be over!
Comment: This book is required reading for our High School religion class. I find the book to ramble on about the same thing for pages. The book has not helped my faith. Often I leave chapters feeling angry because I disagree with his opions. We are told the book is liberal...I hate to see conservative.

Summary: This is a really great book for thinking people
Comment: This is a really great book for thinking people who want to improve the deep roots from which they live their lives. It is also a great book for wounded people who may be ready to leave behind more of the baggage from their lives and move on. Fr. Rolheiser writes two chapters later in the book which will be my reasons for keeping it for many years to reread. This is not a Catholic book. It is a book for human beings no matter what their belief system. He writes about how each of us has a responsibility to work for peace and justice in whatever ways we can in a world that seems obsessed with greed and power but doesn't much care who gets stepped on in the process as long as "I get what I want when I want it." The second chapter I found powerful was the chapter on sexuality approached from a reverent perspective that gets to the heart of who each of us is as a person and how we should act if we truly respect the sexuality of another, not from the genital perspective of which we are bombarded daily. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Summary: Manuscript Errors Make a Difference
Comment: The general excellence of this work is damaged by an uncommon number of textual errors, including garbled sentences, typos, and faulty diction, probably the result of careless word processing. End-note errors are more troubling. For example, T. S. Eliot's "Murder in the Cathedral" is referred to as "Beckett," and Kazantzakis's book is referred to as "The Last Temptation of Jesus"; in addition, the page references are inaccurate. Such errors are troubling and cast a shadow on the book.
