I admit I was one of them. The book has some interesting points, but it seems as bad as all pro-religion books I have encountered in trying to shove the author's point of view down the reader's throat. I just hope this preaching stops before I lose my strength to continue (I am at page 47 now).
[Yes, I am an atheist. I just hate it when someone tries to force me to a point of view, even if it is the point of view that I myself would take if I was left alone.]

Let me be honest - I very much doubt there is a single book that would fit this criteria. No matter how innocent or mild a book is, there is sure to be someone who will find it offensive.

Sex is something most people can agree on, when you compare it to religion and politics.
