Reading Perelandra at age 15 was one of my favourite literary experiences

I never realized until you guys were talking about it, how Withers' circular nonsensical HR-speak, using many words to say nothing, describes a great many leaders in the world today

Did God really say… The Reformation did not at first yield fully to this better theory [Heliocentrism]. Luther, Melanchthon, and Calvin were very strict in their adherence to the exact letter of Scripture. Even Zwigli, broad as his views generally were, was closely bound down in this matter, and held to the opinion of the fathers that a great firmament, or floor, separated the heavens from the earth; that above it were the waters and angels, and below it the earth and man… All branches of the Protestant Church - Lutheran, Calvinist, Anglican, vied with each other in denouncing the Copernican doctrine as contrary to Scripture.” - A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom (1897), Vol. 1, pp. 15, 97.

Interesting how Lewis is loved by evangelicals but wasn’t one himself.
