About this title: This book presents Hartshorne's philosophical theology briefly, simply, and vividly.
Throughout the centuries some of the world's most brilliant philosophers and theologians have held and perpetuated six beliefs that give the word God a meaning untrue to its import in sacred writings or in active religious devotion:1. God is absolutely perfect and therefore unchangeable,2. omnipotence,3. omniscience,4. God's unsympathetic goodness,5. immortality as a career after death,6. revelation as indefallible.
Charles Hartshorne deals with these six theological mistakes from the standpoint of his ...

"Not nearly done, but I am thrilled with it so far. The author is a theist, but tackles the subject matter honestly and intelligently. Where I would normally think that discussions about how God operates(/"thinks") are irrelevant (because, to me, there is no mind of God because there is no God), Hartshorne comes at the subject from a more philosophical perspective, and challenges believers to be more intellectually honest with themselves."
"I don't really believe that there is one individual in the way that we think of the word that is an almighty God. This is still well thought out philosophy, and I think anyone who believes in God, writes about it, but still does not bash gay people and saving the environment needs all the good publicity I can give these days."
"If I believed in God, it would be Hartshorne's God.
The book dispels common Christian fallacies on the nature of God through the use of Christian principles. This book is easy to read, challenging to grasp, and enlightening to understand.
This book has changed the way I see Christianity."
