That is ridiculous! And I do call that an ad and not a suggestion.

Here is what I get when I open the book:

If you accidentally touch the ad you see the second image. Again, this is inside of the book and the first page you get when you open it to read the book.
I confess that I am slightly disappointed that the suggestions were all bible related. It would have been fun to have ads for Torah, Quran, Richard Dawkins etc. Or something similar to Janet Kagan's Faith of the Month Club
