I thought you'd kill me,
But...

I really wanted to like this book, but it was too far out there to be valuable to me. I have a hard time believing that you can cleanse your aura by bathing with a box of baking soda. I also have a hard time swallowing that an exorcised spirit destroyed a computer file on its way out through the attic. Throughout...

This book is not the usual type of selection for a religion blog, is it? I’m not sure God is even mentioned in the book. But Love is, and God is Love, right?

This book was good, and very progressive for it's age (published in 1956), despite a few closed-minded references to homosexuality and women here and there. But again, it was 1965, and it was more the author's speculation than anything tangible.
