"The title of the epilogue appropriately reads, "For those who feel personally assaulted"--speaking to western Christians that will probably feel "resentful and angry" after being attacked "from a different direction in every chapter." I resonate with the title, but also think that this book needs to be read by those of us in the American church to challenge us to be accountable for our actions, live justly, and love God."
"This book is hard to read (and I don't mean that the words are big or whatnot). I don't recommend it for everyone. I do recommend it for the Christian who has read Noam Chomsky, though. It's a book that makes you think, and that doesn't have any easy solutions tied up in a bow."
