I’ve been meaning to comment on this but see someone else did already. I have to agree that it’s not a Christian book and is heretical is some ways. I did read it, but almost 30 years ago when I was teenager and only knew the Gospel and some Bible stories. Still, from knowing the Gospel, some things struck me as not agreeing with what I’d been taught about the Christian faith. Since then I’ve learned a lot more and just in the glances I’ve had at this book felt assured that what I thought about it back then was right, and what I’ve read from Christians writing about it also confirms that. It doesn’t matter if people recommend it. Are those people committed to following God in every way? Unless they are, they are also not to be trusted as “experts.”
Indeed!
