The mummy case by elizabeth peters6/12/2023 Unlike modern Christians, modern Muslims still kill people because they do not embrace their faith-people who, as has been widely documented, they call infidels. Yet, Muhammad's conversion techniques were to pick a city, surround it, give it a day to convert-or-die, then proceed to "convert" its inhabitants. (Before vociferous non-Christians and atheists start attacking me, know that I don't even go to church.) For example Emerson says that Christians literally walk into a man's house and order him to become a Christian. It also increased the attacks to Christianity. The mentions of the couple "connubial" and sexual relations increased in this book I think if removed, the book might be reduced by 3 dozen pages. Apart from Emerson's constant and hysterically disproportionate reactions, the "Reader" has to constantly deal with Peabody's eternal conceitedness and belittling of males (and the only intelligent females are the ones who agree with Amelia, by the way) and their very young son's absurd precociousness. Nevertheless, this-the third I read-is the least I have liked so far. Christian-bashing galore! Barbara Mertz (Elizabeth Peters' real name) is certainly a good writer and her Peabody series is quite entertaining.
