Summary: Read with an open mind, change your outlook on life
Comment: A "sequel" to Cosmos, this book shows that the sequel can be better than the original. Sagan teaches us about the universe and about ourselves in an enthralling manner.

Every chapter of this book is my favorite. Without question, the best non-fiction I ever read.

Get ready to question any pre-conceptions you have about God, the origin of Humankind, and your soul. Pale Blue Dot will change your life. For the better.

Summary: When Contact is made, they should be given this book to read
Comment: I have read many books, but none have changed my way of thinking like this one. Truly magnificent in the way he explains how insignificant and small we really are and how deceited we have become in our train of thoughts, to think we are alone in this infinitive Multiverse, how we treat our planet; other living creatures; each other, the list is be endless, Carl Sagan opens up the proverbial "can of beans" in all who reads minds, triggering a chain reaction of questions about why? things are the way they are, about the ignorance of religion, war, global abuse, etc.

Science and Astronomy made interesting to the mass populus of earth, only one man can do this with distinction, that man is Dr Carl Sagan, open your mind, take a ride, if you only read one book in your lifetime.... make it this one, awe inspiring stuff.

Summary: Reply to a brief comment
Comment: Einstein religious? not at all. I quote from Einstein directly in "The Human Side" Ed. Dukas, Hoffman.

"It was of course a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal god and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it"

As for the issue of whether religious types should fear the scientific worldview; of course they should since organised science and organised religion are incompatible as long as religious leaders continue to claim authority on questions which can be experimentally determined (which is proving to be just about everything).
