It really is. No book has ever given me a sense of introspection like Screwtape Letters. C.S. Lewis in general has helped build a large foundation of my belief system.
You’re woefully mistaken, but let’s say you’re right. How is it then that Lewis and Chesterton and Macdonald and Tolkien all lead you to the foot of Christ? That’s what happened to me? Reading Lewis made me want to know Christ better.
I follow a strict interpretation of the bible (i.e., authorial intent) just like I do of the constitution, and this doesn't lead me to these ridiculous claims. Lewis wasn't an occultist.
Jesus isn’t a lion. Ra, the Egyptian sun god, is a lion by way of an ancient pun.The lion is the king of the jungle, the strongest of those who live outside of God’s law, whose legitimacy is guaranteed not by God’s will but by his own might. The lion is lucifer, not Jesus (who is typically portrayed as a lamb, no? Not as a predator!).
Symbols have meaning, anon. (((They))) laugh and laugh at us as we hold up their many satanic/pagan symbols as Christian symbols. Further, there is no need to analogize the bible since the bible stands on its own.
I am not saying we should burn these books or anything. There is nothing wrong with reading, even enjoying the written ideas of the (((enemy))). It is important, however, that you also understand.
Uhhh..this cite also calls the perseverance of the saints false doctrine. Says Gods unconditional love for his children (those Christ died for) is false doctrine. You need to dump this source becuase your error on CS Lewis seems to stem from trusting a false authority and misreading scripture.
One of the greatest Christian thinkers in the last century at least. His close friend J.R.R. Tolkien, who brought him to Christianity, was another.
That one is awesome! The Four Loves is great too!

Yep, you're the only here who gets it. Thanks for the good comments
IMO they're both occultists, not Christians.
Let me guess - listening to rock and roll will send me to hell?

Source or shush.
His sources are probably based on strict interpretation of the Bible, mostly like this.
"C.S. Lewis: The Devil's Wisest Fool"

They also have similar complaints about Harry Potter, Dungeons and Dragons, etc.

There is always need for some moderation in all things, even the Bible.

Yep, on the money, and they were both friends with L ron Hubbard..but their estates have buried proof of it
