Summary: All open minded agnostics should read this book
Comment: If you are a truth seeking agnostic or atheist who does not categorically deny the possiblity of the supernatural you should read this book. You should also read this book if you are a Christian who does not know why you believe what you believe. This is the most comprehensive defense of Christianity that I have found.The case it makes is so convincing I was at first "certain" the evidence had to be tainted somehow. But, by using the references given in the footnotes, both for and against the argument, I verified (as can anyone else) that the evidence is presented fairly. This book is very dense and it will take perseverance to follow the argument from beginning to end. However, it is very well divided into individual criticisms which do not depend on the answers given in other areas. I recommend this book highly to everyone who is willing to spend time and thought searching for the truth. A less comprehensive, and perhaps more readable, book covering much of the same material is The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel.

Rating: 5
Summary: Volume II: better for referencing than reading
Comment: This book (formerly called MORE EVIDENCE THAT DEMANDS A VERDICT) is heavier reading than MORE EVIDENCE, Vol. 1, and is more amenable to using as a resource, for selective perusal of topics, rather than reading it all the way through. (You can read it cover to cover, but it's not easy.) This second volume addresses things like archaeology, form criticism, literary criticism, and historical research into the claims of the Bible. Volume I deals more with the life of Christ and New Testament events.

Rating: 1
Summary: Only for those who already believe
Comment: This book serves only to give false confidence to those who already believe. As an honest seeker for truth, it offers nothing. I found some of the quotes in it were actually anti-Semitic and could arouse hatred and misunderstanding for non-Christians. It basically says that non-Christians who read this book and afterwards do not believe in Jesus are "unwilling to believe." It says that such people most often are unwilling because of the moral changes they would have to make in their lives! What a way to dismiss all critics! He might as well say there's no reason to listen to any critics of my book, because they know that Jesus is God, they just reject him anyway. They are immoral, and that is why they reject!

If you are of that mindset, then this book is for you.
