I will be here probably bad criticism, because I like the philosophy and even the stories of antiquity. This link between the culture of Antiquity and Christianity on which we have based our Western European societies, seemed obvious to me when I read Plato in the Phaedo, Phaedrus and Timaeus, but then I thought that Christianity had imported some concepts of antiquity. This book has the merit of addressing the issue, but also to bring a new vision, both external and reviews the reasons that made the undeniable success of the Christian religion; Lucien Jerphagnon I had a reading Roman history and the difficult beginning of Christianity with spicy anecdotes. As for Luc Ferry, with humor and intelligence, he exhibited a critical view of Greek philosophy and limitations facing the universal message of love of Christianity. I regret that these two thinkers have not addressed the question of the survival of the soul, for there is a curious commonality between Greek philosophy and Christianity in particular struck me while reading Plato. The thesis advanced resurrection in Christianity bothers Ferry, because it can not accede without real evidence. But he does not speak of the thesis advanced by Plato on the survival of the soul Socrates demonstrates speaking of reminiscence. In the Christian religion also, the survival of the soul plays a key role in doctrine. In ancient as in Christianity, we assume the existence of the full soul apart from the body. And it interested me to hear these two authors discuss and thinkers on this question precisely. In conclusion, I will say that I had a wonderful time in reading this book and I closed the last page regretting that this book was so short.
