Thanks jlhetrick for your response! You bring out some good points but I'm not sure I would agree with you on why you think "To begin with the writer can in no way be considered objective and the article is presented mean spirited (in my opinion) which instantly rules it out regarding it's being informative or in any way helpful." At least I didn't see it that way. Also, let me point out I am not defending the review or the book. I've only read the review not the book so there is no way I would attempt to defend either one. So far, I only have a recommendation to read the book and a review done on the book by one man and of course your thoughts on the review. I posted the link only as information to the subject not as an endorsement. Just want to clear that up. Also, I'm very thankful for your thoughts on the subject and for the book recommendation from Mommapbs. |

Hi Humbled., No, I didn't get that you were endorsing anything, I actually meant for my post to be helpful to you. I apologize if I came across as calling your position on this into question. As far as my opinion regarding the writer's objectivity; he wrote presenting a lot of assumption and personal belief as fact regarding a discipline and practice that he obviously knows very little about and was in fact not factual. Regarding the "mean spiritedness" comment, I'll just have to credit that to my personal opinion and my bias as a professional in the field receiving criticism. Thanks, Jeff |

I didn't take it that you thought I was endorsing. I just wanted to take the opportunity to point out my stance on the subject of the review so that my questions and/or comments didn't come across as biased one way or the other. Personally, on this subject I'm seeking not teaching so everyone's input at this time is valuable to me as long as it lines up with the scriptures. However, I will state as I did in another post to Mommapbs, "Just based on the review itself, I would say some of what was pointed out gives reason for pause in regards to the book, if what was pointed out is true. I would also say, that some of what was said in the review should also give pause to accepting the reviewers opinion on the book completely". |
