Actually I quite enjoyed the book, mainly because it is a good laugh. However, the paranoia permeating through the book tips it from just some fun nonsense into something much more sinister.
This is clearly part of the right-wing Christian agenda to prejudice people against the UN, against international cooperation, against secularism and against toleration of each others religious differences. Christianity is not the only x27;rightx27; religion and certainly, Americans are not the chosen people.
The implication of the plot is that the progress that humanity made during the period of the European Enlightment (17th-18th century) is invalid. The Enlightenmentx27;s core belief is that humanity can think through its problems and solve them with rationality and tolerance. This book wants to undermine that by suggesting that the EU and the UN and any kind of attempt to solve our problems on an internationalist rational basis are wrong.
Rolling back the enlightenment is an morally abhorrent and frightening project. The policies which this book seeks to encourage would rapidly lead to an apocalyptic war. That, by any sensible criteria, is not a good thing.
