Am I the only one who thinks this book is ridiculously underrated?
>>
i liked it a lot and it did a lot to help me understand the concept of how a loving god could allow people to not go to heaven by giving them free will
it really stuck with me
i'm an atheist btw but one who found this book compelling and refuted a lot of standard reddit atheist strawmen arguments

It's an amazing read but I don't think Lewis's view isn't what the Biblical authors had in mind. I'm not much of a believer anymore either but I hope Lewis was right instead of Dante or Calvin

Which one is better? This or Screwtape Letters
>>
All of C.S. Lewis is underrated. The Four Loves is also underrated to fuck and back.
>>

Screwtape Letters. Screwtape is also one of the greatest villains in fiction. He's like if Reverse Flash had a baby with the Joker
>>
>>23538337
Screwtape Letters is hard to top
>>
>>23538409
The Audio drama is the best way to experience it. Andy Serkis kills it as Screwtape

People are in Hell because they want to be

seems unfair to say this when not going to hell requires belief in Noah's Ark

Great Divorce is different from your standard Hell. It's closer to purgatory or limbo. Even nonbelievers can go to Heaven in it.
