> would have been more believeable if they happened into the world by accident and through clever plot twists were responsible for the salvation of Narnia. But there was nothing really special about these kids, no ancestors with a special connection/knowledge to Narnia, no special abilities, expertise or talents, They were not exceptional in any way...they were just kids. Why did the land of Narnia need them? They added nothing that wasn't already there and in fact detracted from it. <
I have not read the books but saw the movie last night.An adult needs to watch with a understanding of Christianity to fully enjoy.The questions you pose above are an example of this.Christ and his disciples were all people of little consequence and no special leadership qualities and they turned the world upside down.It is clear that this parallel world like ours is not random but created and preserved by the hand of God.Thus it was prophesied that the children would come and they did.
