A review by fluidstatic
A Course in Miracles by Foundation for Inner Peace, Helen Shucman
Did not finish book. Stopped at 28%.
I was raised on this dreck as a religious text. Tried to read it again to annotate and refute it, but got bogged down in its repetitive, self contradictory, and condescending language. It tries to legitimize its ideas by paraphrasing them ad nauseam, but only succeeds in being confusing and emotionally distressing. I have considered writing a book of my own deconstructing the ways in which it glorifies apathy and gaslighting, but trying to break it down into concrete statements for refutation is next to impossible. I'd give it negative stars, if I could.
