Has anyone read the book Conversations With God? It's currently my brother's bible. My mum is reading it and throwing out random quotes to me but it just sounds like second-rate Deist claptrap to me*. It's clearly written for people from a Christian background (references to Jesus and the 10 commandments) and yet it seems to be saying that God and religion is unimportant; God doesn't care what you do, just that you think that you're doing the right thing. It actually says that Hitler is in heaven!

Anyway, I just wanted to know if anyone else had read it and what their impressions were.



* I'm not saying that Deism is second-rate claptrap. Just that the book is.
