Review Summary: A waste of your time
Date: 2008-05-24
Details: I read this book as part of a continuing education class at Rice University. Father O'Murchu is a utopian dreamer. He dreams of a stateless world and of equality and peace on a global scale. He sees these things as an enevitable result of continuing human evolution and he supports this with all manner of pseudo scientific references couched mainly in the murky world of quantum mechanics. He has no use for the reality of human nature and chooses to completely ignore man's violent history. The main thing that amazed me about the study of this book was the number of people who actually seemed to be buying this stuff. Scary!
