I am astonished to find people giving this book five stars. My question is, "where has the critical thinking gone". Even Infidels (Secular Web) who I feel has a number of overly-enthusiastic reviews writes that this book should not be trusted for accuracy:

Note: the scholarship of Kersey Graves has been questioned by numerous freethinkers; the inclusion of The World's Sixteen Crucified Saviors in the Secular Web's Historical Library does not constitute endorsement by Internet Infidels, Inc. This document was included for historical purposes; readers should be extremely cautious in trusting anything in this book.

To find people claiming to allegedly demonstrate "free-thought" I find it odd that so little actually use critical thinking (I am speaking of the reviewers of this book who gave it 4-5 stars). Just the reader below gives the book five stars. Besides this, the book can be read for free at infidels (I am not permitted to give links in articles), so in that aspect alone it doesn't warrent a purchase.

I've been a Grave's fan for 24 years, and this was the first work of his I read. A masterpiece! Philosophically enlightening, and a load of laughs, as well!

This book is a tear on the veil of ignorance that is so dangerously pervasive in our society today

Let's make the tear grow.
