Summary: Severely Disappointed
Comment: I am thankful that Mr. Mills does not classify himself as an expert. His views, while seemingly unique, fall in line with what he seems to like to avoid, conformity. Only his conformity is not to a fundamentalist regime, but to an untra beyond liberal regime instead. I am highly dissappointed that a father could relay such pessimism and unrealism to the world (or at least the small one that reads this book) and lead a child into beliefs that will lead her hopeless. While many atheists have non-religious morality, Mr. Mills apparently needs to grow in this area. His proud writing leaves much to be desired. I am highly disappointed that I wasted my time reading this book- thankfully, I did it for free on his website.

Summary: Smashing the hypocrisy of an outdated institution
Comment: David Mills has taken the feelings of many and put them into words everyone can understand. No longer are we forced to live in the dark with ideals being passed from "above". In his book, the Church, Heaven, Hell, and just about everything in between, is put into a perspective that not only lifts a cloud of disillusionment, but clarifies the new vision to allow a life to be fulfilled with one's own dreams and aspirations, and not dictatorial dogma.

Summary: Common Sense Made Easy
Comment: In his book, *Science Shams & Bible Bloopers*, David Mills covers a wide variety of topics in common sense, easy-to-read fashion. This is a must read for those weary of dry theological discourse or wordy scientific jargon which only those "in the know" can understand. Mills addresses everything from the geologic column to homeschooling; from chiropractic to the existence of hell, all in a simple yet fulfilling manner.

Mills discusses many of the arguments posited as proof of God and shows that they prove no such thing. And rather than just rejecting arguments for theism, Mills offers explanations for the universe's existence and "beauty of nature" that are at least as plausible as those of creationists, in fact perhaps more so.

My lone complaint is that some may perceive Mills as a man with an axe to grind with religion; perhaps a more conciliatory tone toward Christians would be more effective when discussing some topics. Overall, however, the book is excellent and a must for all those who want common sense advice on many important topics.
