Just finished reading that book. Good book. The book's main emphasis is on supporting the facts that Christ has existed. :D He lives!

Anyways, you guys have any recommendations on any other books?

I wanted to read Dante's INferno but it is written in a poetic sort of manner... I thought it was a story when i was watching Se7en, but I was wrong...

well, u have to help a bit more than that....
are you looking for nonfiction? fiction?

if non fiction, i recommend 'operation drumbeat', about the first uboat attacks along the us coast....great read on a topic that the military has done their best to try and forget
if fiction, you must read 'a prayer for owen meany' by john irving - you will laugh, you will cry, you will be unable to understand how come u want to read it again so fast

Seriously?

If you're looking for something at least slightly related to the book you just finished, read The Secret Life of Your Cells by Robert B. Stone, and similarly, The Secret Life of Plants by Peter Tompkins & Christopher Bird.

Very interesting stuff. :)

I personally like American history (colonial) so I've read, and enjoyed, The Patriots (by Langguth), and John Adams (by McCullough). Right now I'm working on The Age of Reform: 1250-1550 by Ozment...very interesting read if you're into St. Thomas Aquinas and Okham.

Speaking of Dante,

Try "The Dante Club". Fictionalized novel about murders based on Dante's hell set in the post Civil War US. Good read.

But it's very easy to understand.

Read The Case For Faith by the same author. I've read both :).

I heard The Bell Curve is pretty good too.

Oooo, this looks really good... Kind of like the movie Se7en, the murders were based upon Dante's Inferno if i remmeber correctly.
