God Explained in a Taxi Ride by Paul Arden



Written by passed away Paul Arden, this book is verrrrrrrry gooooooddd book about GOD itself, it has some christian background (Paul Arden himself was a christian), but I think it's not a book made specially for christian, it is book for everyone, for people that believe in GOD, people that don't believe in GOD, agnostic people, even atheist.

This book is very simple, with only some sentences in each pages, and with nice illustration, it has british style of jokes which are bold and easy to understand for people that not use english as first languange, and based on Paul Arden experience as an expert in adveritising, you will not feel that you are reading a book about GOD as others book, it's very fun reading this book.

You only need 15 minutes maximum to finish this book, some people may be only need 5 minutes. Like its title. In a Taxi Ride, you can finish it in the leng of your taxi ride =D

I give all of stars i can give to this book, amazing book, simple book that you may think will be not really important at first sight, but after you finish read it for the first time, it will be in your heart subconsciusly and suddenly you already buy this book and put in on your favourite shelf and show them to guest coming to your house....

my favourite page on this book is page 36:

Blind Faith

How can you have blind faith in something for which there is not a scrap of evidence?

Well, the answer is you can't

If you could prove it , it wouldn't be a faith

You can only have faith in what you don't know

That's what faith is


ps. Paul Arden has 2 other books
- Whatever You Think, Think The Opposite
- It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be

This review is subjective, books are like food and movies, every people has a different taste....
But I hope you taste this book as I taste it =D
