• The Quotable C.S. Lewis #24: The Problem with Full Hands

  
  Allan R. Bevere — Authority: 426
  "If the first and lowest operation of pain shatters the illusion that all is well, the second shatters the illusion that what we have, whether good or bad in itself, is our own and enough for us. Everyone has noticed how hard it is to turn our thoughts to God when everything is going well with us. We have all we want ...

• “In the Incarnation” by C.S. Lewis

  
  Tolle Lege — Authority: 131
  “In the Incarnation God the Son takes the body and human soul of Jesus, and, through that, the whole environment of Nature, all the creaturely predicament, into His own being. So that ‘He came down from Heaven’ can almost be transposed into ‘Heaven drew earth up into it,’ and locality, limitation, sleep, ...

• “Joy is the serious business of Heaven” by C.S. Lewis

  
  Tolle Lege — Authority: 131
  “I do not think that the life of Heaven bears any analogy to play or dance in respect of frivolity. I do think that while we are in this ‘valley of tears,’ cursed with labour, hemmed round with necessities, tripped up with frustrations, doomed to perpetual plannings, puzzlings, and anxieties, certain qualities ...

  Learning Curve on the Ecliptic — Authority: 425
  Weve moved into the zodiac sign of Sagittarius (November 22 - December 23 give or take a day, as it can vary year by year). If I had to pick a favourite sign, this would be it.Sagittarius the sign mind you, not "A Sagittarius" the shorthand form for a person born with Sun in Sagittarius. Such a person might well be an ...

• C.S. Lewis and The Doctor

  
  The Hog's Head — Authority: 130
  For me, two very important events happened yesterday and today.  Yesterday, November 22, 1963, C.S. Lewis died, his death being overshadowed by the assasination of John F. Kennedy.  Aldous Huxley also died that day too.  Lewis is well known for his Chronicles of Narnia books and also for his Christian ...

• Getting to know the originals

  
  Studying the Classics — Authority: 128
  I don’t know why I’ve put off reading St. Athansius’ On the Incarnation for so long. I’ve read about it and even quoted parts of it but haven’t gotten around to reading it. Sometimes when I’ve heard so much about something, I think I already know it and then don’t have the curiosity that usually ...

• Between Heaven and Hell

  
  dangerous idea — Authority: 428
  Today is Nov. 22, the 43rd anniversary of Kennedys assassination, but also of the deaths of Aldous Huxley and C. S. Lewis. I thought I would  commemorate the occasion by linking to a book by Peter Kreeft which has a fictional dialogue between these three departed luminaries. Its an interesting and entertaing read, a ...

  Following is an excerpt from Chapter 15 of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe (C.S.

Aslan looked more like ...

• Symphony

  
  On the Journey — Authority: 119
  In The Problem of Pain , C.S. Lewis writes, "If all experienced God in the same way and returned Him an identical worship, the song of the Church triumphant would have no symphony, it would be like an orchestra in which all the instruments played the same note." That would be a boring orchestra, to be sure. In the ...

• C. S. Lewis on the "progress" of modern thought

  
  dangerous idea — Authority: 428
  A redated post. This is a passage from C. S. Lewiss The Empty Universe , which was a introduction Lewis wrote to a book entitled A New Diagram of Heaven and Earth by a man named Harding. It parallels some of the comments I have been putting up on DI2 about the "siphoning off" argument is Swinburne and Feser. The ...

• The irony of saying there is no God

  
  trangre — Authority: 110
  I was watching a Horizon programme which Im told will be interesting on linguistics, which I find fascinating. But Ive just stalled on the opening premise, which is the complete mystery of how humans uniquely have the innate ability to speak! "How did this ability evolve? Why is it uniquely human?" "When you start ...

  Lingw - Musings of a Fish — Authority: 104
  First, my apologies for the silence here at Lingwë over the past few weeks. I lost my job on November 2 and have been engaged in the search for a new one since. The good news is that it looks like I’ll be gainfully employed again starting the first week of December. But in the meantime (and considering that ...

• Some Issues in NT Historiography, part 2

  
  Agent Intellect — Authority: 121
  In the first post I argued that much of the skepticism expressed towards New Testament history is based on the presupposition that miracles can never happen, that they are therefore maximally improbable, and as such cannot be offered as historical hypotheses regardless of the historical facts. There were some ...

• Out of the Silent Planet by C. S. Lewis

  
  Fifty Books Project 2009 — Authority: 129
  I had never heard of this book or the trilogy that it is a part of (often referred to as the Ransom Trilogy) before I saw this at Joseph-Beth. Lewis is a little hit-or-miss for me, but I thought I would give this a try. The main character of Out of the Silent Planet is Dr. Ransom. He is kidnapped by two rouge ...

• Why So Much Love for C.S. Lewis?

  
  New Leaven — Authority: 546
  It seems like every book I open these days is bound to have a quote or two from the pen of C.S. Lewis.  It almost seems odd not to run into a Lewis quote. From Doug Field’s Christian Living   Fresh Start to William Dembski’s Apologetic   The End of Christianity .  And even a neo-atheist like Richard ...
