savore this book Nov 09, 2009
There may be a "thousand points of light" out there but this book is definitely one hundred and five points of enlightenment. I did not read "The Atheist Camel Chronicles" quickly. Like a box of exquisite chocolates, I savored each for its rational thoughts. I recommend this book and I plan to keep it at hand as a reference.

100 Delights Oct 13, 2009
I haven't been so entertained in ages. Each of this book's more than 100 5 minute essays is a gem. I was either laughing out loud, or wishing "I had said that." Incisive, clever, witty, and ironic. Just great! A wonderful gift.

 Entertaining Oct 11, 2009
I enjoy reading books on atheism. Many of those are written in a somewhat academic style, which is fine, but if you want to get away from that style for a bit then I think you will enjoy `The Atheist Camel'. This book doesn't pull punches as the language is straight forward and clearly expresses the author's views on religiosity.
The book is mostly internet-reference based which is a different approach when compared to most other books on the subject (from such authors as Dawkins, Harris and Loftus). These web-site references are provided and so it can be interesting to go and check some of them out. It is written in a fairly big font and each chapter is very short, making it an easy and fun read. Although it is informative and the author brings up some interesting points, one should keep in mind that it is mostly an outlet for the author's opinion and thoughts. Thus, it will not be as thorough and deep in its rebuttal of religious beliefs as the books written by the previously mentioned authors. But I don't think that was ever the book's intent. So overall, I recommend this book, as it will at times make you think, at times make you want to check out a web-site, and of course at other times, it will give you a chuckle or two.

Camel Humpty Oct 05, 2009
The book is an excellent read,it is a very informative, and sometimes humorous. Mr. Hump threw me off when he mentioned "illegal aliens" and praise for Christopher Columbus. The term "illegal aliens" is usually mentioned by the delusional conspiracy theorists whom enjoy their Gods, Lou Dobbs and Glenn Beck. Christopher Columbus thought he had landed in India when he reached Trinidad. He was a religious man who wrote letters about enslaving the natives. The Vatican has those letters in their vaults as he enjoyed sending letters to the Pope. The camel is not so atheist after all.

Hard Hitting Sep 23, 2009
Wow hard hitting and very well written just simple common sense in this book. This book covers all the basics of religion and all the fables from Jesus on back. Lots of humor and hard hitting strong atheism in this book, recommended for all who want to know how to combat the religious in a world full of delusion.
