This book tuckled a very complex topic: religion. Some readers may already have strong beliefs and others might not be religious at all. I'm curious about how the author's ideas influenced your opinion :)

I reviewed this book in detail some months ago, but I would say no. This book was not able to change my religious beliefs at all, but it did provide some interesting insights into religious history.

Good question, I would love to hear more readers' opinions on this. I found myself partially swayed by the neutral tone the book was presented in. Clearly, the author was coming from a position of bias, from the scriptural side of the debate. But I still felt as if he did more toward marrying the disparities between science and ancient scripture rather than arguing explicitly against scientific evidence. All in all, I feel more swayed than not to believe his overall theory. Not so swayed that I'll do anything drastic, however.

A book, other than The Bible, can never change my view on religious beliefs. Yes, the author took a controversial topic. It is the author's perspective. It doesn't have to do anything in changing my beliefs because of a person's perspective.

This book was certainly different from all those I had ever read before regarding religion. Some seemed possible, but if it's not in the Bible, then it's not going to change my mind.

I do not feel that the book has changed my religious beliefs, however I do feel that it has changed my perspective on how I view and read about religion. As an atheist, I had previously disregarded religious texts, viewing them as fictional and seeing their messages as causing conflict rather than harmony.

However, this book has made me realise that this was very close-minded of me. Through using science to explain certain religious events, I respect the arguments more and it has opened my mind to the possibility that religious texts are more like history books, with fictional elements. Overall, the book has encouraged me to read more about religion and its correlation with scientific fact.

No, it has not. Although the theories are interesting, they are just theories to me. I do not view his suggestions as fact. Sometimes I feel like people just try to analyze things too much, and this was one of those times.

It hasn't changed any view to me about religion. It only arouses my interest to study the scripture more. The theories were nothing more than theories to me.

This book just clarifies a few issues that I didn't understand. It hasn't changed my view on the Bible. I felt like it just added to the knowledge I had. I also disagreed with some of the things discussed and that's okay.

I am a kind of person that keep my conviction before I started to read a book that has the ability to change my views about my conviction either in religious matter or another. I read with open mind just in the hope to learn because I'm always of the opinion that there are more to learn about this universe

As much as the author is an individual like any of us, he has drove us down his perspectives regarding religion and history. we all have different views and opinions of things and provide facts to support our views, Hence the author has also done that, sharing his view of things and that does not necessarily mean that he is completely truthful. As a result, no the book did not change my view on religious belief, it only pushed me to think deep.

I would say this book has changed my religious perspective but I would say it bolsters my belief and faith that I had of the Creation of the Universe. The correspondence between the Big Bang in Science and the Prophecies of the servant of God was one point that quicken my belief.

This book didn't change my view on religious beliefs in any way, rather it clarified some issues related to the Scripture for a better understanding.
