Why I Hate Paulo Coelho - The Alchemist Analysis

[nathalush]

i watched this video again and i realise you are such a stupid bitch.. i meet people like this in my life and at the begining i was trying to treat them with love as people like did receive enough of it. but it doesn't work.. you will be even more eveil - seriously people!! try it! the more loving you are to bitches like this the more mean and unbearable they are!! but when u treat them like rugh they seemed tamed.. in anyway they are the poisonous part of society which you would prefer avoid!!

Very well stated, logical and methodical criticism of the book. Perhaps too snarky, If you cut out seeking the divine, and experiences that transcend you are eliminating a lot of literature and art.

Your comment about Latin America is completely erroneous. You may want to check your own facts here, the largest cities in the Western Hemisphere are Latin American countries I think 6 of the top 10 metropolitan areas are in Latin America. They are no more rural than we are here in the states.

I hated the book. The only reason I do not regret reading it is because it got me one step closer towards being an Atheist 24/7. On a side note... CAN you imagine the "Universe trying to conspire what one desires" in a poker game? Or two boys desiring the same woman? It would be a logistical nightmare. But then again, it is not as bad as Coelho believing that ROCKS have SOULS without any evidence at all ! All credibility was lost when I read that detail.

This review sucks. :P

[nathalush]

don't need to be a psychologist to see how you project your imperfections on pc. really shallow and pointless critique. you have no idea what the book is about and you don't have imagination. although you are very articulate so maybe u should use this tallent of yours to more creative tasks x

[nathalush]

you doing criticue and naming the video 'why i hate pc'? you are just sad hater.. review you feelings first! and you critique is full of pity.. ia m really sorry 4 u!

Thank you, thank you very much

[SunBlueSkyRed]

You're review was insightful. But you kind of shoot yourself in the foot by claiming the book sells well in Latin America because they're all simple rural folk. A very western thing to say that did not add to your already good critique.

[TheHumanFiction]

@SunBlueSkyRed That is not what I say. I have lived in Latin America for 6 years, and do not believe that. What I said was that it is a predominately Catholic region and Coelho appeals to Catholicism in this book.

[RoyalSangraula]

there is nothing called PERFECT in this wOrld. so this bestseller also do have some mistakes. so wats wrong here huh lady? nyway i appreciate u.

[GoingCommando33]

Great review! i totally agree! I'm a highschool freshman and i found this book so boring :p

[felim23]

It's good to finally see someone who dislikes the book! I thought I was the only one

I'm really fed up with all these books that keep dealing with spirituality, and the heart of the universe, and well... anything crap basically in order to full naive people.

You lost me when you said that Christians use recruitment tactics to get the poor. We spread the word of God to everyone but the choice is yours. So please talk what you know properly. So I wonder with this video who are you trying to recruit with your believes about this book!

Good book review!!!

I actually liked the book and found it uplifting but I enjoyed listening to your views and found them very realistic.

[TheHumanFiction]

@blitzblutz Thanks!

[softrocks84]

Your views on the book are intelligent. However, there are some things on which I don't quite agree with you. I really don't believe Coelho is as calculating as you suggest. It's always possible that I'm wrong, but based on my knowledge of the human mind, I don't think it's probable that he has just done his best to manipulate his readers. He seems to believe the things he writes about. The world may be ruled by coincidence, but fantasy helps us survive. Not every one can face reality as it is.

[macaroo90]

I do agree about the treasure. I think that the end treasure should have been fatima.

[macaroo90]

doesn't sound so bad to me. understanding nature, following our dreams which is our happiness. he happens to find happiness outside of what society says is happiness.

THANK YOU.

I´ve been years thinking Paulo Coelho is full of shit. Glad to see I´m not the only one.

[pinkmoon831]

Zomg! Im glad someone else hates this book :)...

[TheHumanFiction]

@pinkmoon831 Me too, I was worried that Coelho lovers would be hating on this video, but it seems that youtube is smart after all :)
