Whatever else you might say about Ray Comfort, he's clearly got an ego on 'im. Whatever reason Ron Barrier may have had to decide not to debate Comfort, it's hard for me to believe that fear of the arguments contained here was one of them.
More likely, Ron felt that it was better to let Comfort's book stand without comment.
I suspect that a lot of Christians believe that atheists' numbers are rising because people like Richard Dawkins are putting out books that hit the bestseller lists and change a lot of minds. Frankly, I doubt that. I'd be willing to bet that almost everyone who read 'The God Delusion' was either already an atheist, or would NEVER be one. No, the reason that atheists' numbers are rising is because smart people hear the things Christians habitually say, and think "Wow, Christianity just seems ridiculous/dishonest."
So a book like this probably creates more atheists than a book like Dawkins'. After all, Ray Comfort is the man who brought us the infamous Banana Argument, an argument so completely idiotic that there's really not much point in refuting it -- if you've got any common sense at all, you can see for yourself what's wrong with it. If there's any trap that atheists tend to fall into, it's this: we feel compelled to respond to stupid arguments and explain exactly why they're stupid. We shouldn't. We don't need to. Smart people can recognize stupidity for themselves. And stupid people? Well, Christianity is welcome to them.
So, to readers of this book, you're in for a treat. The debate over God's existence has raged for thousands of years, but Ray Comfort says he has the answer. No ego there...
Oh, and Mr. Comfort? I just want to say thanks for the Banana Argument. We had a lot of fun with it.

Wow. Writting a book that possibly calls to attention a bunch of "brilliant" minds such as the atheists and they come out of the wood work to protest.
I have to ask myself a question why these people even care? Are you trying to recruit others to your form of thinking? If so, that seems a little hypocratical given that they hate when Christians do the same thing.
If the true meaning of atheism is to not believe in anything why do you believe this book is so dangerous that you must flock to the reviews to try and disprove it?
Overall, the book is hilarious and tries to accomplish the same thing C. S. Lewis did when he converted from atheism to Christianity. The book is short and easy to read and apparently very dangerous to the establishment.
I bought this book because of the NEGATIVE reviews! October 3, 2009

Haha....when the atheists and luciferians come out of the woodwork to "intellectualize" their disdain for a book, I KNOW IT'S A MUST-BUY.
Silly satanists. God rules Heaven and earth.

Some people have attacked the logic of this book. I believe it is perfectly sound. The Author begins by saying that its not what you PROVE its what you BELIEVE IN. So those who attack this book based on that its proofs arent solid enough for them totally missed the point. The author is trying to get people to think critically about what they put theyre faith in. The author unabashedly uses a form of Pascals Wager as an argument for belief in (not the existence of) God. Also it is possible to construct a perfectly solid argument for a universal positive based on incomplete knowledge, but not vice versa. Gravity is a perfect illustration, based on our very incomplete understanding of the universe, we can conclude that gravity is absolute. One need only to observe a few seconds of life on earth to prove this as much as one can prove anything. But you cannot do the same thing with a negative. Just as the author states, you cannot prove that there is no gold in china unless you have absolute knowledge of china. Similarly you cannot prove there is no God unless you have absolute knowledge. But for the people who have witness personal miracless, like those that happen every day, or public miracles, like the one at Fatimah in the early 20th century. They have seen "Gold in china" and thats all the proof anyone needs. Its up to the individual in all cases to decide what it proof and what is not. Because the question has never been whether you can PROVE God's existence, because you certainly cannot, and I dont think thats what God wants, otherwise he would certainly have implanted proof of his existence for all into our brains. He wants us to believe and trust in him as an act of free will. So when the author uses the word 'proof' it should be obvious to any sentient person, that this is a marketing tool. One of the reviewers claimed that Athiesm is based on 'sound' logic and reason, well the question then becomes how 'sound'. Who decides what arguments are 'sound' and what are not- the individual. So its up to the individual to decide what is infact evidence enough to 'prove' something. This is what happens when we believe something. Because Descartes demonstrated that there is no such thing as a PROOF in the the strictest sense. It all boils down to what your willing to put your faith in, be it God or not. If your not willing to embrace faith in God for any reason, then no book is going to prove to you that God exists. But if your curious and want to see what christians believe any hear a few of the many 'sound' reasons why, then this book is for you!

With sharp reasoning, infallible logic, and quick wit, Ray Comfort slices up the thin veil of atheistic "reasoning". No more excuses for those who would deny the existence of God. And nowhere to run. But to the cross.Using object lessons drawn from common human experience, Comfort destroys the deceit of the enemy. The wonders of the human eye, the beauty of an organized universe displaying the glory of God, the intricacies of nature, all point to the Creator. Neither the human mind, mathematical formulae, nor the scientific method can adequately apprehend all of God, it is true. But neither can they disprove Him, quite the opposite. The closer scientists get to understanding, the nearer they get to God. This book is an easy read from a man whose heart beats to tell the story of Christ and for the lost. You will come away with a fire in your heart, clearer understanding in your mind, and a smile on your lips.
