review 1: This book was fantastic! As an atheist buddhist it gave me a whole way to think about god. Warner's argument that the term "God" is the only word we have to come close to the true purpose of meditation and enlightenment is brilliant. Warner seems to view god more like we would view the "universe" or the "the force". Using his definition with god I find no contradiction between my views as an atheist and a naturalistic explanation for the universe. I will be thinking about this book for a long time.
review 2: A great memoir-style summary of the role of a "God" in Buddhism. I liked how Warner touched on the different variations of a God-like being and their implications, while keeping the material relatable and relatively simple. My main complaint is the manner i... moren which Warner narrates - He tends to come across as the cooler-than-thou type, constantly mentioning how much of a rebel he is and name dropping his punk rock band. He also deviates from the topic with tangents in almost every chapter, which tended to get somewhat distracting. less
