C.S Lewis, Satanist
Edited on Sat Jun-04-05 01:17 PM by onager
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Dear sir,
I'm so glad you have taken the time to write about CS-lewis and Satanism. This page was so well researched! Just think after all these years, so many Christians have been fooled into thinking he was such a Godly man. I can just imagine how many people have been led astray....just like me. I'm living proof to the lies of CS-lewis This is my story.

After I read the narnia series when I was a child, I became curious about fauns and centaurs and nymphs. I learned that they were characters of ancient greek mythology and that men of old such as Homer, Aeschylus, and Euripides wrote all about these legends. It started as an innocent facination and being a child prodigy, I studied greek so I could read about fauns as they were written about in the original langauge.

I read all about the sexual practices of the greek gods and I thought that these must be normal. I thought it was Ok for a woman to have intercourse with a bull!

I can rememember the time when my dad read "The Silver Chair" to me as a bedtime story. It was then that I became interested in beer because, all the narnian characters drank beer. I became an alcoholic because of narnia! >From there it was a down-ward spiral, I became a wizard at the age of 13, and one time in a rage I cast a spell on my mom so she would get breast cancer. I really miss mom! As a result of reading about the bad-guys the "Calormans" ( which are really just his way of portraying Arabs) I became deeply racist. As a young child I would yell out to anybody wearing a turban. I called them ragheads and sometimes I tried to pee on them (pardon my language).

I became addicted to cocaine shortly after reading about Edmund's "Turkish delight", I figured it was some kind of drug and if Edmund could eat it so could I. I talked to another guy who was in the coven with me and he said that his Dad had this white powder and it made him feel good.... which reminded me of Edmund's turkish delight.

After reading about how prince Rillian hacked off the serpents head, I thought I'd try it too. So I went into the backyard and cut off a snakes head. I really enjoyed it and it became the start of my disgusting habit of cruelty to animals.

I became sexually active at the age of 14 after reading about the "Nymphs". A kid from school told me that nymphomaniacs like sex, and I remembered that there were nymphs in Narnia. I contracted HIV at the age of 15 as a result of a promiscous life-style.

After reading about Puddleglum's burning his feet I started inflicting pain on myself. I would regularily cut and burn myself in a sadomasochistic pleasure. Finally at the age of 16, I read the "Screwtape letters", that was the straw that broke the camel's back. Right then and there I knelt on the floor and gave my life to Satan.

But now, praise the Lord, I've since been saved from the deceit of CS-Lewis. I'm now 17 and just started going to a catholic church.....but I don't understand why they eat the body of Christ or worship Mary??!!

I haven't read any good books in a while I'm thinking of reading a book.... I think it's called "Harry Potter".... do you happen to know anything about it? I hear it's really good.

Thanks,

Jimmy


The site really IS dedicated to proving C.S. Lewis was Satanic. Hey, I'm an atheist, and even I would only go so far as to call Lewis a boring, unoriginal Christer hack:

11. Really?
I'm a fairly committed atheist, and I would describe C.S. Lewis as a genius of the first order.

Boring is of course purely subjective, although I found The Chronicles of Narnia anything but, but I don't think it's fair to call the the Silent Planet Trilogy unoriginal, or to describe The Screwtape Letters or Mere Christianity as the work of a hack.

Mere Christianity if one of the best pieces of polemical writing I have ever read. There is one logical error in chapter 2, where he tries and fails to prove the existence of a moral God from the fact that humans have an innate sense of morality, but if you accept his proposition there then everything else follows perfectly - it's sylogistic, clear, readable, enjoyable and thought-provoking even if, like me, you don't agree with all of it.

His explanation of faith got round a debating point I had thought was unanswerable for years, although I still think many Christians use the a less logical one than he does.

13. I agree. I was an

atheist when I first read C.S. Lewis and his writing impressed me quite a lot. It didn't send me back to church at the time but it raised a lot of questions about atheism.

3. It's refreshing to learn that whacked-out fundamentalists >
aren't exclusively American. On the other hand, my faith in English sensibility has been shaken...

8. It looks like the letter is...
...certainly a parody. But the site doesn't appear to be.

Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

7. C. S. Lewis
He was a christian, but a great writer. It all depends on how much you read into his writing.

9. Yikes!
Check this out:

Letter 2 From the same lady:

"I wrote about the Pastor in my church who was trying to convince me that C.S. Lewis and Star Wars were good...He's a man who was ordained to be a Pastor but doesn't have a church of his own. He left the church he was ordained in because the Pastor there wouldn't let him have more time in the pulpit.

He and his wife went to school at Tennessee Temple. I've known them for over 20 years. They mentored me when I was a baby Christian. They used to be strict Fundamentalists, John R. Rice kind of Fundamentalism. They were also very strongly against having a T.V. back then. Something happened over the years and now they have a T.V. and go to the latest "thrilling, special effects movies," and have no position against Hollywood whatsoever.

My point was, the Pastor of my church welcomed them in although he was a little leery of them. I never told him how the man and his wife try to "disciple" me with their beliefs and was wondering if he should know. I do feel like sometimes they want to "make disciples " and because I've known them for so long, there's a lot of stuff I see that others in the church don't know about. They are highly revered as being very godly. Still, they try to persuade me to follow what they believe if I talk with them. I just don't know if my Pastor is aware of it. He did express some concerns to me about them and the way their teens dress. They sit in the back of the church and fool around during the preaching. They dress morbidly. I know when their daughter's hamster died, the mother soaked it in formaldehyde to "comfort " her. Also, their son saw a dog that was killed and saved some of the bones. He and his brother wear them as "jewelry." I thought that was peculiar. One of the grandparents was a professional magician but quit when the magic "tricks" started to take over with a kind of power of their own. I think maybe some of those influences have rubbed off."
****

and the reasoned rational reply:

****
Editor's note: "It sounds like these people may have had devils in their family history. They were very foolish to open themselves to C.S. Lewis' "occult Christianity." They gave place to the devil and he is building a stronghold in their lives. Ephesians 4:27 Neither give place to the devil. This underscores the power of Lewis' writings to lead people into the bondage of Satan. 2Timothy 2:24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will."

12. Funny
I've been trying to compose a post about CS Lewis. I never read the Narnia books and just started reading them with my son because my sister read them and is a big fan of the books and she wants us to see the upcoming movie with her.

I figured we'd start now in case my son wanted to read more of the series before the movie came out later this year.

I knew CS Lewis was xian but so what probably most of the authors I read are xian. But I'm finding I really dislike the first of these books that I'm reading, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe."

He may have had a skill with words but his story telling leaves a lot to be desired.
