Product Description
This work brings together Lewis’s legendary broadcast talks of the war years, talks in which he set out simply to “clarify and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times”. Rejecting the boundaries that apportion Christianity’s many denominations, C.S. Lewis provides an opportunity for believers and non-believers alike to hear a powerful, rational case for the Christian faith.Amazon.com Review
In 1943 Fantastic Britain, when hope and the moral fabric of society were threatened by the relentless inhumanity of global war, an Oxford don was invited to give a series of radio lectures addressing the central issues of Christianity. Over half a century after the original lectures, the topic retains it urgency. Expanded into book form, Mere Christianity never flinches as it sets out a rational basis for Christianity and builds an edifice of compassionate morality atop this foundation. As Mr. Lewis clearly demonstrates, Christianity is not a religion of flitting angels and blind faith, but of free will, an innate sense of justice and the grace of God.

The title shoud be changed to “I’m now a Christian and here’s why….” I won’t even bother to chat about the silly analogies and ridiculous attempts at logic to be establish in this “masterpeice” of his. This book is fantastic to Christians merely because it is a written example of one who has “chosen the light” and had a PhD, hooray! Also, the mere thought that there’s still a war between science and religion in 2001 should baffle everyone and persons reliable should find better, more constructive things to do with their life. If you are seeking the Truth, look to persons whom you trust and question them. Or look inside yourself for the answers, most are already there. Excellent luck to everyone and may God have mercy on your souls.

Guess what the largest sin is according to C.S. Lewis in his
self-aggrandizing book, Mere Christianity? No, silly, not murder, child molestation, starting wars, or rape. It’s PRIDE. Oh yes, and here is another chunk of wisdom for persons who find deep meaning in blather: “Thinking about doing something is the same as doing it.” (Don’t let persons thinking about hurting you find this out.) Frankly, I’d rather a name reflect about molesting my kid than really doing it. Plus, C.S. Lewis tells us that soldiers should kill for their country with a lightness of heart. Plus, we should like everyone the same–spouse, kids, god, mailmen, assassins, C.S. Lewis, Darwin, etc. C.S. Lewis offers nuggets of so-called truths lacking providing a smattering of evidence in support of his supernatural notions. You know, god, soul, virgin births, evil, hell, etc.–all the excellent stuff that keeps you blindly faithful while giving the logic cells in your brain a rest. Are you tired of trying to convince yourself that your pastor speaks the truth? Let this book convince you the way no amount of evidence can. If you prefer actual truth, try Carl Sagan’s more contemporary work, The Demon Haunted World, or pull up the fleeting essay by Richard Dawkins called Excellent and Terrible Reasons for Believing. Place this book to the astrology crowd and persons who reflect aliens visit planet to make goofy designs in cornfields; if truth is your passion, science is your source.It evolves. If you like to judge stuff based on conjecture, testimony, anecdote, dread of reprisal, and because it just makes you feel excellent, check out the Koran, the Bhagavad Gita, anything by Shirley McLaine; try dianetics, the Torah, assorted versions of the ancient and new tribute; don’t forget the book of Mormon, and Reverend Moon has some persuasive nuggets too. I’m sure there are lots of prophets, gods, and gurus who would gladly tell you just exactly what it all means.

It is better if one does not start the argument if he cannot to the core. Mere Christianity gave me a feeling of a quick paced thriller. Was it because I read it (just two chapters) when my head was swinging? No doubt he is a master apologist, but how masterful! If you are not watchful, he can trick you to a dreadful thing. It is all fine if god wished to make a world full of freewill beings rather than automatas. He tells me that god made the world full of creatures and let it go incorrect because he saw it was worth the risk, because in the end he will have a world of creatures that likes him out of its own choice, save the rebels that he had to ruin that he himself made. God is omniscient and could see through the future the burning furnace and the joyful creatures at two ends choosing to make the world, despite the burning furnace, for the joyful creatures at the cost of burning souls. If there is god, Mr. Lewis and his disciples, if he has agreed me freewill to reflect, he is doomed by his own weapon. It is like a nightmarish fairy tale in which fathers reproduce children to sacrifice when came to puberty. They do not sacrifice all the children, only persons chosen many, and to voice against their bestiality is blasphemy-after all they do not slaughter themselves agreed a huge share to Luciferens.
Lets not judge in a superstitiously maniac religion just because it can give us peace and pride. Let there be logic even in the worst crime.
I am 26 turning 27 morrow. I am reading the rest of the book if only some one answered as to why god had to make the world, being omniscient, when he could see through time the burning furnace.
