Alone In Unity: Torments Of An Iraqi God-Seeker In North AmericaEssentially, when I was accepted as a multi denominational Christian by two very conservative churches, after explaining to them that I cannot, in my heart, choose only one church, I realized I was in quite a unique situation when they allowed me to be a part of both churches.

Essentially, when I was accepted as a multi-denominational Christian by two very conservative churches, after explaining to them that I cannot, in my heart, choose only one church, I realized I was in quite a unique situation when they allowed me to be a part of both churches. Also, through my participation and acceptance of other Christian churches, I found myself united with almost all Christians. This seemingly unique situation prompted me to write about my experience.

The main theme is Christian unity; however, possibly due to my scientific background, I set about writing this book in a very methodical, logical manner, much like a science textbook does in detailing every possible reason behind every conclusion. In analyzing my reasoning, I therefore had to start from first principles. Starting from that position, I first had to answer Why, God? then Which, God? and finally, What represents God on Earth?

In order to answer these questions, the book analyzes all the major world religions, including Christian and non-Christian religions and denominations. It gets into topics of relationships between science and religion, history of church and religion, and theology and biblical prophesy, and woven throughout the book are my personal experiences and graces that I believe Ive received while going along on this journey of discovery and learning. My Middle Eastern background, being born in Iraq and raised in the civil war in Lebanon, are highlighted in contrast with the start of my new life in North America.

About the Author

Faris Georgis was born in Baghdad, Iraq, in 1960 to Syriac Orthodox Christian parents. His family left Iraq in 1966 in search for a better life. They moved to once peaceful and beautiful Lebanon, only to get caught up in a bloody religious civil war between Christians and Muslims. After surviving several near extinctions, during the war, he was sent to finish high school in England and then to the U.S. for Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in Civil Engineering. He then settled into a professional career in Canada. He worked as a civil servant for 24 years and experienced a transformational conversion of heart and faith, before publishing his first book Alone In Unity.

Good interface but unwearable watch band
Color: Black
This review will be divided into 3 sections: looks, usability, and comfort. LOOKS I guess there's not much to say as style is very individual. I think this watch looks good for what you pay for it. USABILITY What I liked about this watch is that I could use it right out of the box. I have had basic Timex digital watches before (never this exact interface), and I was able to quickly figure it out. A quick glance at the manual to make sure I wasn't unaware of any features and I had 100% grasp of all the watch's features. The Timex interface puts many others to shame with its user-friendliness. On this model Timex has added a 'guide' on the display that tells you which button will do what-- increase number, decrease number, etc. This is cool. If you're even remotely handy with interfaces, once you learn this one, you'll know it backwards and forwards, and even if you forget, there's the in-display guide. The functions are standard for a Timex digital-- time and date, stopwatch with lap timing, countdown timer, and alarm. There is a 2nd time zone but no dedicated mode for it. You access it by holding the 'start' button when in the time mode. I like this feature as I occasionally need to know when to call people in 1 particular time zone. But, for example, if you are often switching back and forth between 2 time zones, you will have to reset the time to have the watch display the correct time at all times. And if you need more than 2 time zones, sorry, out of luck. Stopwatch (chrono) is good. Don't use the lap counter much but it seems to work well. Some have complained that the 'start' and 'stop' should be on the same button. Overall, it is a very uncluttered and usable interface. At first I thought it was very inaccurate at timekeeping, but it must have gotten accidentally reset because over the few months since I set it, it's only a couple seconds off from time.gov. very good timekeeping. It seems very water resistant. I have taken it swimming, surfing, and it held up fine. I haven't thoroughly tested its shock resistance but it has done some hiking and climbing where it got banged around a bit and it still works. COMFORT Unfortunately what the watch has in user interface usability, it totally lacks in comfort. The strap is a huge disaster. It is very rigid and uncomfortable. The 'waffling' or indented designs near the bezel on each side of the strap create areas where the strap digs into the wrist. with any prolonged wearing, it gets worse and worse until your wrist is begging you to take it off. The strap is just absolutely godawful. I have read reviews where G Shock owners said it was very good, well though out and comfortable. If that is the case, I shudder to imagine what a G Shock is like on the wrist. If constant pinching around sensitive areas on the side of the wrist seems like it would be the kind of thing to bother you, avoid this watch. I tried swapping it for another Timex band, which amazingly enough was uncomfortable it a DIFFERENT area! It seems Timex doesn't put much thought into their bands-- no part of the band should dig into the wrist. That's just obvious. CONCLUSION I really want to like this watch, I do. It's good-looking. It's very usable in terms of features. But the strap is terrible, so much so that the watch is unwearable. Unfortunately it took me about a week to figure this out, during which time the watch got sufficient wear so that it is no longer new, returnable condition. I am keeping it, using it as a 'beater' watch in the gym (I put my watch on the ground in the gym). If you purchase it I recommend you wear it for a good few hours while not doing anything that will scratch it, so that you can return it if need be.
