Query: What a vessel of manure--even if...

...you start out interested and open to believing. The more the book goes on, the more ridiculous it becomes. I read the first book, which somewhat intrigued me, even though it is based on the hysterically questionable practice of hypnosis. (Have you ever seen it performed? Then you know what I mean.)This book is another matter altogether.Spirits playing games of, among other things, "gemball"? That was the final straw in this book, a veritable crock of fertilizer. I finally gave up trying to go along with this book, even as a form of entertainment. It is offensive in its attempt to draw people into what can't even be described as fantasy, much less theology, science or anything else remotely legitimate.
