    <body><![CDATA[As a Christian who's found himself at odds with the Church, this book may be one of the most important books I've read on self-discovery and self-improvement.  I suppose it's ironic that the book is written by someone who was not a Christian himself but studied the bible to get a better understanding of who Jesus was and what we should be learning from Him.<br/><br/>Fundamentalists will likely discard this book since it takes them to task for pulling bits and pieces of the Bible - rather than the entire message - to teach with.  Chopra also adds his personal beliefs regarding Christianity and abortion, gay rights, politics, etc.  I may not agree with everything he says, but I believe the message is still important.<br/><br/>I will be reading this book again!]]></body>
