It was mere Christianity that made me realize that God is atemporal. This work seems to have made me aware of the great deceit that was causing me to struggle so much with doubt. I am livid that I didn't know and glad that I know now

His closeness to God reveals this- his fantastic mind before he was overwhelmed by Jesus, simply does not compare to the absolute brilliance of his mind afterwards. Shew.

This absolutely brilliant! Thank you for posting, having taken the time with loving care to give me food for my soul and my mind.🙏🙏

THIS IS SO GOOD. I know everything he says here to be true at least as close as you can be. Yet I wonder what I say on my channel are fallacies. Of course I don’t want them to be. But I’m not CLIVE LEWIS. IM DARA DUFFY. DIFFERENT WORSE BETTER SAME.

I think he is mistaken at 12:45 to say that the Christian universe "may be full of life that has been redeemed". For after the plan of redemption, God also tells of his plans to prevent such a thing from being necessary in the future, destroying Satan and any who followed in his path. If any life had ever needed redeeming before us, it would suggest that this would have been done before our being created. I see no objection, though, to the claim that the universe may be full of life that has no need of redemption.

It’s a pity H.P. Lovecraft never read this. Though if he had early in life we never would’ve had the Cthulhu Mythos.

It's funny how similar they were. Both were raised Christian and then went atheist, both were into the mythological and drew from it for inspiration in their writings and yet they both went down different paths. I've thought about putting together a sort of lecture or dissertation on the similarities and differences between the two both in their life and writing.

[@EricDaMAJ]

@@user-cs7fg5eq9r There's definitely comparisons and contrasts. Lovecraft was born rich, his dad died in a mental asylum (which were horrifically grim places then) and his mom and aunt raised him in poverty, providing much overprotection/abuse. He grew up alone and virulently racist, was a bit of a prodigy but could never escape poverty and had a failed marriage. He died young but with a growing self awareness and repentance for his racism. Lewis' family was middle class and his beloved mom died when he was quite young and he got shuffled off to a boarding school where bullying students and crazed faculty actively preyed on each other. Thanks to an inspired tutor he grew to enjoy the academic life before getting hustled off to fight in the bloodbath of WW I. He spent much of his young adulthood caring for a deceased wartime buddy's increasingly deranged mother (who some biographers believe he had relations with). He lived a decently long life in relative comfort and fame with a late in life and sadly brief marriage to a woman who adored him. The meeting or even the correspondence between the two would've been amazing. Though I think uneven, as Lovecraft was a fierce anglophile and Lewis probably couldn't help but look down on him.
