Stranger in a Strange Land
Finished it....
You were right Max 2/3 of a good book. The begining was slow and quite dull and the end totally blew major chunks. But for the most part the book was a good read. I really liked the development of the "Thou art God" concept.
Interestingly enough it was Heinlein and Hubbard that had the bet over who could write the better religious/philsophical book. (Or so I have been told)
On another note....went to see Eddie Izzard on Saturday. During his show he kept using the phrase "Allah Willing" and then'correcting' himself with "God Willing" and the entire group of people I was with sat their with mouths hanging open. Later they were all laughing about my "language is the issue" concept.
See even the crazy drag queen gets it.....why is it so hard for so many others?
