Rating: - by far the best
This book is absolutely the funniest book I have ever read in my life. I looked forward to reading it and it actually made me crack up laughing out loud. It could be considered sacreligious if you are overly "that way", but for me I didnt really find it offensive at all...more cute. Great book

Rating: - Not for those who believe the Bible is absolute truth....
I have read this book about three times and it never fails to entertain me. Now, if you are thinking I am not a Christian- you are wrong. I am- but I choose to see this book as an "interpretation" of the greatest, and saddest story every told. I choose to keep in mind that Mr. Moore took a chance at recreating Christ's lost years. What strikes me most about the book was how beautifully Moore intertwined the teachings and lessons of Jesus so it did not take away from the importance of Christ's life. While Biff commits all kinds of absurdities, Jesus takes the opportunity to learn from Biff's actions as well as the best of what religion in that day had to offer. I liked that the story had Jesus' beliefs stemming from different parts of the world and different ways of thinking. To me, this creates an atmosphere built on tolerance, which we know our world could stand some more of. The end saddens me every time as we see Biff struggle to keep his friend alive, for Biff is nothing without the savior by his side. It's a story of friendship, love, compassion, lessons and the belief that we are all- in the end, human.

At first, I was a little offended by this book. But after telling myself it is fiction, I found it to be very fun and hilarious. I loved it.
