This certainly rates more than the single star given by another reviewer. Billingsley's book is a fine work of scholarship!

This is a good foundation. Since the first slave ship arrived to the USA, we have been active in our liberation. As to the previous reviewer "a reader". It always amazes me how muslims can put down Christianity when they do NOTHING in our communities but talk tough. Please read YOUR history and learn that when the europeans came to power they used the slave routes of muslims who were the first to enslave continental africans(which still goes on! BTW, the koran is an edited book that has been rewritten several times. At least read your own history before speaking on others. PEACE

I would like to say something about christianity. For centuries white christians have surpressed and enslaved other races or religions.Why would I want to convert myself to a religion that didn't even have laws that inspired people from all races and beliefs to live in harmony and friendship.One advice.Read de koran:You won't be disappointed About the book then.Does the author even now that the Bible during the roman occupation was forged(just like the juish book the thora)
