Book Review of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Heaven: (Or, How I Made Peace with the Paranormal and Stigmatized Zealots and Cynics)

I really wanted to like this book, but every time Taylor would start going into detail on one of his paranormal experiences, he goes off onto tangents about all sorts of things unrelated to the subject. He's obviously a bright guy and the subject material here is really interesting, it just doesn't flow well. It took me 2 weeks to finish because I could barely get thru a chapter at a time due to him getting sidetracked with bizarre rants. A good editor would have kept Taylor on task without losing sight of the subject matter, which happened far too often here.
