I just finished reading this book. One of my goals has been to read a little bit each day of non-school material. I think I've been reading fewer than ten minutes a day, but it is better than zero. Also, not as good as 20. This was a quick, simple read. Although this book described some evolution and neuroscience as reasons we constructed religions, I think the most important thing we can do is to realize that every single person has the right to believe in what they choose and and to be respected for having their own (hopefully informed) convictions. And I (almost) always enjoy learning what opinions people and books have to offer.
