Dawkins Was Too Kind. Well-researched, well-written book. The chapters are broken out by character traits. Each chapter begins with a biblical appropriate passage. Barker knows the Bible with mastery and provides countless biblical passages that clearly supports his main points. So many biblical passages that will make your head spin. The concept of hell. In due time their feet will slip.

Their day of disaster will arrive, and their destiny will overtake them. The bloodthirsty lord. Threatening nonbelievers, so cruel. Ethnic cleanser of biblical proportions. Misogyny and plenty of it. So anti-gay. The Bible endorses slavery, how terrible. Examples of infanticide.

Happy shall they be who pay you back what you have done to us! Such a God is described by Richard Dawkins in this accurate manner: The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction : jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control freak; a vindictive Bible, the God of the Old Testament.

God and man. A second error is that Barker draws a conclusion about the overall intensions and character of God based upon snapshots and snippets of Bible passages. This would be equivalent to looking at a photo album of someone and coming to the conclusion that he must have lived a deprived childhood simply because he looks dirty and unkempt in many of the photos.

However, when the same photos are complimented with descriptions from someone who was present at the time the photos were taken, one gains a more complete understanding of what is being depicted in the photos—the child loved to play outdoors. He often misleads the reader by focusing on a snapshot verse or section of verses without considering the broader context of Scripture as a whole.

This reveals that Barker exhibits either a novice understanding of the Bible or deceitfully presents Scripture to fit his narrative. However, I would not recommend this book to the new believer or the non-believer.
