Not recommended for depressed readers or those who rather live among lies than in search for the truth.

This book tries to teach us all to "see things how things are and not how we would like things to be" in a free philosophical discussion on Paradox in relation to the Essence of God, Religions, Atheism, etc.

Written in a modern, down-to-earth language with disregard for the rules society imposes on semantics, especially by nonsensical, biased concoctions such as ³political correctness² and other thought-restraining mental or social mechanisms.


³If God listened to the prayers of men, all men would quickly have perished: for they are forever praying for evil against one another.²

Epicurus
