Newly Discovered (C.S. Lewis) Letter Reveals Narnia Story is About Christ

I hear there's a lion in it, too. And a witch. And some sort of cupboard.

No, really, wasn't the deeper message pretty well known from the outset?

others, including Douglas Gresham, Lewis' stepson, simply regard it as an adventure story.

Professor Andrew Quicke, professor of Cinema Television at Regent University, said Narnia was not written as "an evangelical religious tract" but rather "as a story."

Some don't like to admit it. It's a basic liberal disease. They also don't like to admit that terrorists are our enemies and that our troops are winning in Iraq.

Mostly -- more than anything -- they hate to admit that from the 20th century onward anything demonstrating genius could possibly be by a Christian or about Christ the Savior of all who call on Him.
