I assume you want to lend some credibility to your book, and this is not the way to do it. You should have some of your peers read the book so when you quote them there will be a nice "Ph.D." after each name. Or better yet, get a strong Christian pastor to write something nice about your book so it doesn't just look like you are "preaching to the choir," if you'll pardon the offensive expression.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1933519781770237941.post-83041083348840459302008-04-05T22:35:00.000-06:002008-04-05T22:35:00.000-06:00You may as well send a copy to someone like Richar...You may as well send a copy to someone like Richard Dawkins.
