The reason I gave it 2 stars is because he writes in a way to make others believe he is knowledgeable and wise. An average person that is not familiar with history or religion, may believe some of his propaganda. Although he is able to visually take us back to first century Palestine, there are a plethora of lies, non-truths, and inaccuracies presented in this story, and any well respected scholar or academic knows this.
It’s a pseudo factual story that was written to generate a lot of sales; and it was definitely successful!
Lastly, I pity this author, on the final judgement day.
He seems unashamedly flippant as he minimizes the glory of God.
