A ridiculous and simplistic attempt to answer the unanswerable. The book consists of the daughter asking the unanswerable (simplistically) and the father providing ridiculous replies (most of which seem to include at least one totally illogical component). My first impulse was to chuck it out (it was a gift), and my second to at least have it share the telling tag of 'hoowaah' (which graces such books as "Chariots of the Gods?" and "Immortality: The Scientific Evidence"). In the end, I've decided to try reading the sucker simply to understand, at least, how pere Novak could ever be awarded the Templeton prize. ( )
