I was assuming that it might be a harsh, judgmental response to those who didn't have the same belief system that he did. And although he was very clear with his own views, I felt his writing was style was inviting, making it a book that I wouldn't be afraid of giving to non-Christians to start a dialog with them. For me his humor helped in these regards. I do think it was wise, however, to put much of the humor in the footnotes. It leaves it up to the reader to put those comments into the flow of the writing or leave them out. Enjoyed your review! I was unfamiliar with Jared before I read his book.
