I understand that it is a pretty good book. I have not read it but I am roughly familiar with it. Perhaps on vacation this summer, I can get around to reading it.

While I don’t share Sagan’s skepticism about God, Christianity, and miracles, I do appreciate his sense of rational thinking. He is a good thinker but he does tend to generalize and lump completely illogical, non-theological topics like UFO’s with matters relating to the divine and divine action in the world.

He is a champion of scientific method and factual based thinking. Sir, you are not. I did read "Shadows," which he wrote with his wife, several years ago and I cannot imagine Sagan, even though he was a fundamentalist-atheist, suggesting that we accept results of faulty testing.
