 Not appropriate for critical thinkers March 10, 2008
2 out of 6 found this review helpful
I picked up this book as it was recommended to me by a discussion partner. She gave it high marks and I was looking forward to seeing what it said. Unfortunately, I learned by the beginning of Chapter 2 that Mr. Strobel is not, in fact, a scholar worthy of the name. Rather he makes claims for which he can provide no valid citation, and in what can only be described as great arrogance, cites himself in other situations.
If Mr. Strobel wishes this book to be considered an objective, scholarly investigation than I will hold him to such standards. He fails. Miserably.

This book is very informative for people who are searching for the truth. It is clear and to-the-point. A quick read.
Master of Strawmen January 1, 2008
3 out of 6 found this review helpful
The premise of the book "The Case for Faith" seems to be an exploration of Biblical Christianity through its better-known proponents by a curious and impartial skeptic. Of course, that is not the case and it is only a dishonest marketing ploy to call it a journalistic investigation and a laughable ruse to say it is the toughest objections. There is an intentional and cleverly fashioned flow in the book through a sequence of interviews by a (supposedly skeptical) journalist in a deliberate progression. These interviews are used to persuade under the illusion of investigation as the author posed questions in a manner that could be dismantled by a clever apologist. Any of Strobel's questions of the apologists' theories are short and feeble they are strawmen. If you are a believer and want to feel more reassured, then you might find it here provided you don't apply critical thought. Also, if you are a believer - ask yourself if you want to support an author and marketing staff that distorts truth for gain. If you are not a believer, you would have to lack the ability to realize fallacious arguments and strawmen to be persuaded.

This book was instrumental in my wife's coming to know Jesus. It is the manual for dealing with tough questions and Strobel's style is very easy to read.
GREAT for in the Car May 6, 2007

This is an excellent book and owning it on CD means I can listen to it while I'm running around in the car. There is so much information in this book that I find I need the repetition to absorb it. I don't mind listening to it several times. It's also an easy way to share it with family and friends.
