"This book may well be the most powerful and persuasive writing you will ever encounter on the overriding advisability of heeding the dire warning of the Gospel, converting to a strict Catholic life and abandoning all sin. Not only does Bishop Challoner call us to reflect on the sayings of Our Lord, but also on the meaning of the events of His life and bitter Passion. 157 pgs."

This is doubtless a fine book, authored by a great teacher, but as a strictly religeous subject one would suspect that it may well create an unacceptale controversey here. Is the Lounge really the place to discuss the merits of the good Bishop's arguments? Would you feel comfortable engaging in a discussion of the Talmud, the Upanishads, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God", the Malleus Malifacarum, or the works of Dr. Channing or perhaps George Fox?

If I was familiar with those works that you mention I would feel comfortable discussing them.
However the book that I cite here deals with objective Truth that is not at all relative to anyones "opinion"

The "Dictatorship of Relativism" would have those, who are far from Truth [whether by their own fault or invincible ignorance] to believe that, but we are a breath away from death at every single moment.
It is good to consider where we will spend eternity when we die.

Discussion is fine, evangelizing is not.
