Definitely a comedians take on a life that has its funny moments but is really quite heartbreaking. 

My favourite line is from his Princeton graduation speech "I arrived here a conservative, southern baptist carnivore, and tomorrow I'll graduate a gay vegetarian atheist". 

Also, I definitely didn't buy this because of the cover and title... (that is a lie) 

I struggled to separate my complaints about the audiobook from how much I liked or disliked the actual writing. Zimmerman did a great job reading his own words. I enjoyed the sound of his voice. However, there was no distinct, audible cue for when one essay ended & another began. This was a huge problem for me. It erased my ability to notice the intentional craft behind each piece. From what I could tell, I think I'd prefer the author's stand-up.

This was on-brand for my particular taste: humor informed by a religious education (and the critique of it) - especially poignant when coming from an ex-evangelical, gay, vegan atheist. Some of Zach's commentary made me pause, though, not knowing from whence it was borne, e.g. “My politics have evolved as such that I no longer attend Pride parades.“ Why? What does that mean? I need to know more before I can laugh in earnest!

Very funny, but not for those with God firmly in their hearts.
