Seriously if I hear someone say 50 Shades of Grey is a good book I'm going to strangle them.
That thing started out as (I swear I am not making this up) fanfic for Twilight!!! No I haven't read it, I will not read it, and I won't touch it with a barge pole. Ebor (mentally gagging) |

A History of God: The 4,000 Year Quest of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, by Karen Armstrong
Save yourself the time. Guess when you have plenty though, what does it matter? She is terrible. She is not an Orthodox Christian, and she is certainly way too ecumenical and too liberal for my tastes. However, if you know this going in then you can still gain a lot from her. She is very knowledgable about religion and she is an excellent writer in my opinion. Selam I read a book of hers while waiting for a woman to get ready to go out, before I cared about Orthodoxy Christianity or being involved in anything "religious". While offering much laughter, it was terribly written. It was a helpful exercise, as I was able to quickly gauge the woman's intellectual capacity and propensity to the worst sorta liberalism, when she explained to me how interesting and "informative" the text was and how she came to better understand "religious people" especially Christians. The problem is not the ecumenicism. Aside from the writing, she belongs in the heap of trash of x studies, in this case religious studies, which doesn't properly understand its own history of thought, necessarily "Western", then attempts to reduce everything else in the world to its own uncritical understanding of its own metaphysics. No thanks. [/rant] But as they say:  Which actually is just another installment in the patronizing toward the Black Man long series of tales of Whitey Knows Best. Like I said, I've only read two of her books. One on Islam and the other was her autobiogrpahy "The Spiral Staircase." I found her writing highly readable and very informative. But then again, I am a simple man who likes to understand what I read the first time without having to read the same paragraph again and again to discern it's meaning (like I had to do with your post above.  ) Selam I, too, am a simple man. I have enjoyed a few of her books and am quite sympathetic to some of her views. |

Regarding Karen Armstrong... interesting... so the iconoclastic guy doesn't like her, but the conservative/traditional Orthodox do. Something is wrong here  |

Religious Book - I have taken a break from reading the Gospels straight up and have been reading the Commentary on the Gospel of John by St. Theophylact, after rereading the Gospel itself. Following this I will probably read the book of Galatians, I believe that is where I stopped in my reading of the New Testament in a straight line.
Non-Religious - Fireforce, a book written about the author's experiences in the Rhodesian Light Infantry in the Bush War. I have gotten through the forward and the beginning of boot camp. The book immediately gets off on a depressing note - in a psychiatrist's office in the mid-80's, several years after the end of the war. He recounts several friends and where they are now...most of whom had committed suicide or died in the war. This will probably be a very powerful read.

I am also reading this, because as a convert I am obligated to read Pelikan:  Jaroslav Pelikan examines the biblical portrait of Mary, analyzing both the New and Old Testaments to see how the bits of information provided about her were expanded into a full-blown doctrine. He explores the view of Mary in late antiquity, where the differences between Mary, the mother of Christ, and Eve, the "mother of all living," provided positive and negative symbols of women. He discusses how the Eastern church commemorated Mary and how she was portrayed in the Holy Qur'an of Islam. He explains how the paradox of Mary as Virgin Mother shaped the paradoxical Catholic view of sexuality and how Reformation rejection of the worship of Mary allowed her to be a model of faith for Protestants. He considers also her role in political and social history. He analyzes the place of Mary in literature—from Dante, Spenser, and Milton to Wordsworth, George Eliot, and Goethe—as well as in music and art, and he describes the miraculous apparitions of Mary that have been experienced by the common people. |

Nice I do not know her entire philosophy other than that she seems basically a free market economist and and an atheist. The book "We the Living" was adapted to an Italian movie in 1942 & eventually banned by the fascists since it was inherently anti totalitarian. To be anti communist & anti fascist does not seem to bad . Guess I will have to investigate further. Coming out of russia an atheist after 1917 (or any time?) seems understandable.. |

I am reading Pelikan because it is a subject in which I am interested, and he writes about the history of doctrine without the hackneyed polemic of some. FWIW, I'm fairly certain Mary through the Centuries was written before his official conversion. Jesus through the Centuries certainly was. And, at the risk of sounding parochial, most books written from the convert perspective, I really cannot stand, especially Frederica Matthewes Greene and Clark Carlton to name a few.

If you could describe Ayn Rand and Objectivism, what would it be?
As a person who recently read We the Living and is almost finished with Atlas Shrugged, Rand preached autolatry. Pure and simple. The books are hymns of adoration to the self, punctuated periodically by boring sex scenes. Now, understand: when I say the books celebrate self-worship, I don't mean that self-worship is "under the surface" or "the root of it all" or something like that. It's very much on the surface; she preached it largely without hypocrisy. That's what makes her so evil. |
