This book was not really my cup of tea as far as reading genre. But, I enjoyed the writing and the candid thoughts and opinions Mr. Torode stated throughout the writing. At times as I read, it felt like he hesitatingly wrote some words as if worried he might be judged or maybe daddy was looking over his shoulder for stating what many of us want to say, ourselves. But I may be way off base. I've never met the author but wish I could.

I too, was raised in a very fundamental Baptist and loving home. So much so, that I wasn't allowed to play cards, wear shorts, go to movies, dance, rock my sic well you get the picture. I was a little resentful of this but love outweighed it. I now have moved to the more liberal side and accept as well as respect all folks when their beliefs are different from mine. I think that is the reason I liked this work so much. Mr. Torode put what my mind set has evolved to, in print. Thank you sir, for being brave enough to write this. You may find opposition, but that's ok!

Still, I love love The Dirty Parts of the Bible and I just may read it again.
