About this deal

Lewis also talks about how this process is worked through us, so that we have no room to be proud or think that it's of our own doing. I still don't know how he even thought of illustrations that so perfectly captured the heart of his topic, but everything he said was just so clear and lucidly expressed to the reader exactly what he wanted to say. He would go to friends' barbecues and fry steaks and chuckle to himself "if only they knew about my incest family in the basement! Lewis is the ideal persuader for the half convinced, for the good man who would like to be a Christian but finds his intellect getting in the way.

Lewis talks about Christianity being a process of producing a particular kind of new man, instead of a group of people who follow a set of rules.Eventually, he arrives at Jesus Christ, and invokes a well-known argument now known as Lewis's trilemma. Surely we would, us avuncular old shitbags in cardigans puffing on our pipes and living in the real world as we do. I was talking to my father the other day when I said that "I think the funny thing to me about most academics at University, is that they so completely misunderstand Christianity. I know that these could be acceptable during his time but I just got a bit annoyed when I was reading the book.

Thus are gathered together for the first time Dr Lewis’s modern revaluations of Christian apologetics, ethics and theology – in fact all the central problems of belief and of conduct which face Christians today. It is an easily understood account of what Christianity is actually about by the author of the Narnia Stories. This classic book will still stimulate the minds of Christians, agnostics, atheists and followers of other faiths and it is great to see it still in print. The book has also been cited by a number of public figures as their influence to their conversion, or re-conversion, to Christianity as well as other Christian denominations. Read the Bible first because you might be misled when Lewis talks as if he gets his words directly from the scriptures.He also again fails to explain why there are certain people who lack any sense of this “universal” Moral Law, like psychopaths. He never felt the obligation to discuss alternatives (unless you count his saying materialism is everything at random is another “explanation” of something). Theology means ‘the science of God,’ and I think any man who wants to think about God at all would like to have the clearest and most accurate ideas about Him which are available.
