Why whould he say that "He hates god"?? Authors WANT people to read thier books.If he went around saying he wanted to turn kids against God I doubt that we would still have it in our librarys because...At the school I used to go to they banned Harry Potter books because a couple of moms got very offensive because Harry was a fictional wizard.And called the Board Of Education for our county.I dont understand why people make a huge deal out of this.If you don't like it don't read it.But please don't make a big deal out of it. Its his religon.He's an Atheist. It truly doesnt matter what religon you are we are all human! And this is a great book!
