Deniz22 has given us what theologians term a theodicy: a scholarly argument that vindicates the actions -- or, in this case, non-actions -- of the Almighty. As far as I can determine, our author's exegesis and hermeneutics are sound. His introductory references to Friday in Robinson Caruso serve as an introduction to, and framework for, the ensuing theological deliberations. No problem for this reader; however, the feminist and Marxist critics would howl in protest. The elite "intelligentsia" (ha!) of left-wing Academia would excoriate Deniz22 for his use of an oppressed (by a white imperialist) minority as the mouthpiece for his (Mr. D's) argument. In addition, they would denigrate R. Caruso, and perhaps even Friday, for their Christian faith. In any case, kudos is in order here: Five seashells for Deniz22.

Interesting review! Thank you for taking time to make it memorable!
I would think Caruso saving Friday from cannibals might make him a sympathetic character to most readers.
However, the leftist intelligentsia is not noted for sympathy for any heroes and view points other than their own. :)

To D22:
Having spent time in Academia, at the university- level, I know full-well how narrow these people. Outside the hothouse-environment of the campus, these delicate blossoms could not survive.
