Now it's on to Decoding the Language of God by geneticist George Cunningham, who, in arguing that being a scientist and a Christian are incompatible, takes Dr. Collins to task for his claims.

And it's down the yellow brick road with Dorothy and her friends as I read the original The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum for the first time.
1. "Language of God" was not very interesting to me, at least it wasn't when I read it some years ago The copy I read is paperback, translated. Perhaps because the translator did a poor job? Should do a reread in English I guess, but re-buying the book is costly...

2. And there is another book, "Decoding the book I didn't like very much". Sounds interesting

3. Wait, you never read Oz books?
(Neither did I)
