it does? martel's first quetion in 'reading group guide' asks how it may have affected the readers religious beliefs. i would like to analyse it through the eyes of atheists and agnostics because i find harder because i already have a 'religion'. so if i may ask, how?
-
The point he's trying to make is that you can't know anyway, and until you die the truth of the matter is irrelevant.
If you need to guess(as we do, really) you might as well keep an open mind and hope for something greater.

this book is a knockoff of "max and the cats".

@shili12000 You should be eaten by Richard Parker. But congratulations on the successful rhyme; y'should turn it into a poem about Twilight or something.

The difference between pi's story and the story of religion is that it does make a difference to me whether my beliefs about god and the universe are valid.
-
Interesting concept. Couldn't take the leap of faith though, argument had some critical flaws. It's kind of ironic that he referenced the world trade center as an argument for believing in god. I'm sure all those people didn't have to jump out of the windows and plummet to their death had it not been for terrorists who are waging a war against the west in the name of their religion. Yeah, I guess having a normal day at the office wouldn't make for an exciting story *sarcasm.

i stopped this book halfway and flung it away.

I agree with you completely. I instantly hooked by it. Pressure is on poor Yann to top himself now. Tough job!
