A couple years ago, a friend suggested that I read it. He thought I would be interested in the perspective of an ex-atheist who, according to the friend, came to Christianity through reason instead of by the usual means. I kinda sat on the suggestion, along with a few other recommendations that accumulated (Expelled, What The Bleep Do We Know, Theology And Sanity, Catholic For A Reason...). This summer, I've read a lot more books than has been my average, so it wasn't hard to throw it into the list. Especially after I found a free copy of the book somewhere online.

I can't wait for the Discussion thread, and see what the "deal" was. Plus it would be nice to discuss aspects of the book with someone who is fresh on the subject.
