“For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountain of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.”

Robert Jastrow

C.S. Lewis is worth reading in his entirety, fiction and non-fiction alike. He saw and understood the problems of the modern world long before many others did.

Lewis’ “tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims” is itself a relic of a (comparably) more kindly era. The demonic twits infesting our world today are not looking to redeem anyone.

My favorite quote: “Faith, Hope and Love abide. The Greatest of these is Love’’.-St. Paul.
