I recently read the book Revenge of the Vegetarian which is
supposed to be “A Humorous Spin on the World of Vegetarianism”. I have to admit
I was not all that impressed with the book when I received it. The graphics are
terrible and it is 70 pages of ignorance in my opinion. You know, I think that
I am a reasonably intelligent person. I also think I have a great sense of
humor. This book was meant to be comical but I did not find it entertaining in
the least. I actually found it very offensive. Maybe that is really what the
author was going for?
For starters, I am a Christian and very proud to say that I
am a Christian. Am I perfect? Absolutely not, no one is but I can assure you
that when I lay my head down on my pillow tonight I will be praying for the
author of this book.
I am not a vegetarian. I have nothing against vegetarians
and to be honest with you I was actually kind of excited about reading this
book because I honestly thought it would provide me at least a bit of
intelligent insight into vegetarianism but to be honest with you, this book is
a total joke.
The author, Jim Tilberry jokes about bringing a “psychic” in
and then jokingly this “psychic” is supposed to be interviewing people like
Leonardo da Vinci, Socrates, Susan B. Anthony and Jesus. This author actually
quoted Jesus’s response to the question “So did you stick with a meatless diet
to the very end?” as “Almost. During the Last Supper when I was out back taking
a leak, Judas secretly put goat meat in my vegetable bowl. What a d*ck. I never
could trust that dude. Anyway I had stomach problems all the next day. Needless
to say, my indigestion made it a bad day. Not to mention the crucifixion
thing.”
Aside from the fact that the entire book sucked and a more
intelligent read could have been written by my seven year old, you succeeded in
getting your name in print. I actually hate the fact that I had to type a
review to give you the 5 seconds of fame that you so clearly desire but I am a
woman of my word and follow through with my commitments and I accepted this
review through Tomoson and had to complete it.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
