Diálogo amistoso entre un ateo chino y un cristiano argentino
Comprenda a China mediante las conversaciones de un renombrado diplomático chino con Luis Palau, evangelista argentino.
En Diálogo amistoso entre un ateo chino y un cristiano argentino, Luis Palau, representando a la fe cristiana, y Zhao Qizheng, representando al ateísmo, presenta una compilación de diálogos grabados que tuvieron lugar en China en el año 2005 entre ambos.
En esos diálogos se les provee a los lectores nociones de las realidades espirituales y culturales presentes en China y surge una mejor comprensión de las luchas que los ateos tienen respecto a los reclamos de la verdad de la fe cristiana.
Los temas que se consideran incluyen filosofía, historia, religión, la Biblia, creación, ateísmo, confucionismo, política, ética, cultura china y occidental, y la trascendencia de Jesucristo para la sociedad.
Mediante el diálogo interactivo entre Luis Palau y Zhao Qizheng se exponen muchos de los estereotipos e información errada respecto a la cultura china, revelando una nación en la que la Biblia se publica, y se construyen muchas nuevas iglesias. Evitando el uso del complicado lenguaje teológico, estos diálogos expresan la preocupación tanto de creyentes como de ateos de una manera respetuosa y significativa.
Diálogo amistoso entre un ateo chino y un cristiano argentino es de lectura obligada para cualquiera interesado en captar un nuevo concepto de China, el mundo oriental, y cómo la fe cristiana está siendo recibida en ese contexto.

Quick read. Interesting. Now dated, written in 2005.
Hearing perspectives from Chinese and atheistic views of American Christians is interesting. I hadn’t fully realized it was literally transcribed conversations. But easy and interesting read.

I really liked this book. I was impressed with how respectful each was of the other's religious and scientific views. I was very impressed by Luis Palau's knowledge of the Bible and deft responses to the Chinese atheist's questions.

This is a short book and was, for me, a very quick read. I enjoyed it immensely.
It is rare to read a book, listen to a conversation or have a dialogue about religion where people actually listen to each other's points of view. Most times, we kind of listen while we wait for our turn to have our say.
This book pulls of the feat of showing two people with opposing views on religion who tell each other where they are coming from and why they believe what they believe. They listen to each other attentively and provide lucid responses.
The book does not try to influence you one way or the other; it is a straightforward record of conversations between two people. You are free to decide, or to not decide, on which point of view you agree with.

I agree with what this reviewer said - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29...
It is fantastic that two people with opposing views can meet, love each other's company and exchange ideas. But as far as an interesting reading - not so much.
A few good quotes here and there (such as Zhao's river analogy and some of Palau's explanations), but I wouldn't recommend this book.

An interesting read - a dialogue between two intelligent people who bring up some intriguing questions and make some informed comments on a range of topics, Christianity, atheism, science, creation, culture, society, history philosophy, etc.

I expected more from the book; more content. There's a lot of pictures in the book. It's a beginners level book on China and Atheism, I was looking for something with more substance.
I'm probably not a member of the book's target audience, because I've lived in China 4+ years.
