Holy fuck, I didn't even know this book had a Goodreads page. This lead me to the top review, which was complaining about the errors visible even in the Amazon preview. This lead me to the Amazon preview that I didn't know existed, whereupon I can finally lay to rest my questions about this series... It's trash, and the posts are a combination of Gardner shilling it himself, people claiming to like it ironically, and people trying to meme others into wasting their time. Cheers anon, for triggering this enlightening journey.

>First text box
Anybody can just do anything they want and then apply this statement to the principles they want. Both a Hitlerite Christian white male and a Ridin'-with-Biden black, Muslim transgender person could proclaim this statement as being part of their life philosophy.
>Second text box
They were also so information lacking that they invented shit like Abrahamic religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism (all comprehensively retarded).
