MELISSA GRANT
Melissa Grant was raised in a devout Christian family. She was a believer into her 20s, but even as a child some of the things she was taught didn’t make sense to her.
She became a lawyer and learned to think critically, and she used her research and analytical skills to scrutinize the Bible line by line. She cross-examined Christianity and came away realizing that Christ is as mythological as Zeus, Venus, Quetzalcoatl and the thousands of others that mankind has posited as gods and goddesses over the centuries.
Melissa is married to her best friend and she has 6 children. She likes dogs and snakes as pets. She has weaknesses for word puzzles and thrift stores. Your purchase of the book “God Hates Facts. Get Some Here” enables her shopping addiction, true, but it’s for a good cause.

About The Book
“God Hates Facts. Get Some Here” exposes Christianity to a probing light. Did you know that Jesus wasn’t the first crucified savior? If God can accomplish any miracle, why has he never cured an amputee?
Isaac Asimov called the Bible the “most potent force for atheism ever conceived.” “God Hates Facts. Get Some Here” takes a hard look at what the Bible actually says and finds it lacking in logic and coherence, and concludes that since Christianity is built upon it, Christianity falls apart.
“God Hates Facts” is a practical, realistic (and sometimes satirical) look at the Christian religion. It is written for anyone who is curious – for those of other faiths and for anyone who checks “none” when asked for their religious affiliation (that’s 28% of us). For those who were raised Christian but who have stopped going to church regularly and feel guilty or confused about that, “God Hates Facts” will persuade you that henceforth you may happily stay home on Sundays.
According to the Bible
How many animals were on Noah’s Ark?
Two of every kind. (Genesis 6:19)
No, seven pairs of every clean kind and one pair of every unclean kind. (Genesis 7:2)
What unique animals were there in Biblical days?
There were dragons and unicorns. (Deuteronomy 32:33; Psalms 148:7; Psalms 29:6; Job 39:9)
What are some interesting astronomy facts?
The Earth is set on pillars and does not move. (Psalms 104:5; Psalms 93:1; several places elsewhere).
Sometime between 1500 B.C.E. and 1400 B.C.E. Isaiah was able to make the sun move exactly 10 degrees backward on the sundial (2 Kings 20:11). Note: no one else in the world noticed this, or at least neither the Greeks, the Romans, the Phoenicians, the Egyptians, the Chinese nor the Japanese (all of whom had writing) wrote down anything about it.
How long can humans live?
There have been at least 6 people who lived more than 900 years. Seth (912), Enos (905), Jared (962), Methusaleh (969), Adam (930) Noah (950). Interestingly, Noah was 600 years old when he built the famous ark.
Who created evil?
God did. “I form the light and create darkness. I make peace, and create evil. I the Lord do all these things.” (Isaiah 45:7; also Amos 3:6; 1 Samuel 16:14-16)
Did the women who found Jesus' tomb empty spread the word about it?
Has anyone ever seen God?
No. No one has ever seen, or can ever see, God. (1 John 4:12, 1 Timothy 6:16)
Yes. The Lord spoke to Abraham and Moses face to face. (Genesis 18:1, Exodus 33:11)
Is it OK to perform magic?
Yes. There are a lot of places where magic tricks are performed. Moses threw down a stick and it became a serpent. (Exodus 4:2-6) There is even a magic trick to find out if a woman has cheated on her husband: give her magic water, and if she was unfaithful her belly will swell and her thigh will rot. (Numbers 5:27)
No. Believers are forbidden to use magic. (Deuteronomy 18:10-12, Leviticus 19:26-31). Paul blinded one guy for performing magic. Acts 13:8-11).
Testimonials
A Timeless Masterpiece for Book Lovers
Highly recommended. Who would have thought a book about religion could be funny as well as educational? It’s punctuated with great observations by others who have gone down this path as well. Several houseguests have picked it up and read it during visits. The subject is universally compelling.
Excellent deconstruction of Christianity. I found the book to be very informative. Written in a nice terse manner. In these times Christianity has become an integral part of the U.S. government, despite 1st Amendment guarantees of freedom of religion. This is an important book.
