I read it when I was in the Air Force and then again like two years ago. Came to mind when my sister in law was telling me that my 12 year old niece was a big reader and was looking for something out of the ordinary to read

It's a good, small book which isn't too hard to process.
I read it when I was about 12.
It's a bit of a Jesus analogy with a critical thinking slant on it. I found it harmless enough and remember it all these years later and so I'd say that's a great gift and particular from someone who has been in the air themselves (You don't HAVE TO have been a pilot, but allude to it when gifting ;) ).
Good point. Yea definitely a Jesus analogy and overall a short and interesting read
I interpreted it as anti religion.
A Jesus analogy does not make it pro religion.
Particularly with the critical thinking slant which would factor over into the readers' conscious even if they had no idea of Jesus or what is means to be a nonconformist at a fundamental level like he apparently was.
I don't' have that kind of faith and so am not for nor against the Jesus part being good or bad, just an objective observation I made when reading it.
