Just from what I read in looking at your links, some of what was written was scripturally sound. But I could only read a few pages, so I'm reserving further comment.
But I wonder why there was a need for it to be written? I will have to read the entire thing before I can compare it to scripture and see if it's reliable as a spiritual tool or not.
FOLLOW UP-- I read the section about what happens when you die, and that is not scriptural. They are also making up some words and attributing them to Jesus, but they are not in the bible, so where are they getting them?

It's better science-fiction than L. Ron Hubbard ever wrote. Sort of like Scientology without Tommy Cruise and Johnny Travolta.

A holy text even loonier than the Bible and the Book of Mormon, but perhaps not quite as loony as the core beliefs of Scientology. I'd give it a 9.4

Bad Science Fiction passed off as religious mumbo jumbo, much like Scientology.

Sounds like pop sci fi meets religious superstition.

Never heard of it before, so thanks for the reference.
Now I have to read it and get familiar with it. Thanks a lot, Curse Us. As if my reading list wasn't already longer than an uphill mile against the wind. ;)

Angels! HISSSSSSS! DIE ANGEL SCUM. Um...sorry got a little carried away. Angels are the enemies of mankind. So its got to be evil unless it advocates avoiding and or destroying them.
