There's a book I read many years ago called "Between Heaven and Hell. The premise is a conversation between JFK, C.S. Lewis and Aldous Huxley on their way to there eternal destiny. JFK took the humanist point of view, Lewis the Christian and Huxley the atheist...it was a fascinating read.

I finally got around to listening to the audio verion of "Between Heaven and Hell," by Peter Kreeft.
A theoretical discussion between Lewis, Huxley, and Kennedy just after their death. Lewis defends Christianity, Kennedy secular humanism, and Huxley the current new age / relativism / eastern mysticim.
Kreeft is a Christian, and although the arguments on both sides are deep, I do suspect the dialogue is slanted towards Christianity. Not that I minded much, though ;)
Anyway, another recommend read (or listen in the car.)
