Lewis - one of my favorites. I love his essays, “The Inner Ring” and “The Weight of Glory”, and his “The Great Divorce”.

Why, in any case, should I take religion seriously, I thought, when the existence of evil and suffering clearly discredited the Christian claim that our world owed its existence to a benevolent Creator? The wrong question is being asked, IMO.
Considering what we know of human nature and man's propensity towards evil, the question shouldn't be *If there's a God, why is there evil and suffering in the world*, but rather *If there's no God, where did good come from? Why is there good in the world?*
