Read God Hates You, Hate Him Back: Making Sense of The Bible Online
Authors: CJ Werleman
Certainly a dangerous book, a dangerous book because it decrees all manner of actions that we, as a morally evolved society, now deem to be barbaric. But unfortunately God hasn’t released any new best sellers of late, and believers are left with this book from antiquity to perform actions that they believe would please this wicked monster. Thus believers of all faiths will continue to kill in his name because the Bible and the Koran make the ugliest aspects of the human condition righteous and virtuous.
Civilization is left with a stark contrasting choice on how we move forward together in solidarity or in conflict. To borrow Bill Maher’s words from his movie

If you add the total sum of life experiences of CJ's life, you reach a total of 128 years for a guy that is still only in his late-30s. He has owned and operated businesses, managed an international software company, lived in the world's largest Muslim country for nearly a decade, represented Indonesia in cricket, witnessed a suicide bomb, travelled to all continents, and contributed to foreign newspapers. Interestingly, CJ believes that all his trials, and tribulations have taught him only one thing: THAT EVERYTHING IS FUNNY! And those that do it more often tend to live longer and happier.
