Well seeing as i have never read his works i would say that i like his devotion to an individual them through so many works and that he is an inspiration to those seeking truth in the myths

He seems rather down on Abrahamic religions generally, which may be the result of confusing current or even historical practice with original teachings. Since he grew up in the West, that's not unusual, though.

Quote:

I wouldn't even know where to begin listing the influences.

Quote:

Um, actually I don't think I've heard any criticisms. Those who might be inclined to criticize him seem less likely to read his works anyway.
