Schizo-posters will be tolerated
Aggressive ath*ists will be kept on a short leash
Blessed posters are welcomed
C.S. Lewis possessed one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.
Who was greater?
Truer words were never spoken concerning our current times. (When you hear ATOMIC replace it with COVID-19 in your mind)
Ummm except only terminally people die from covid. The Marxist never lets a good crisis go to waste.
Bullshit..... covid 19 is the ultimate exercise in mass hysteria created by our leaders, media and big business. A disease that only kills people with previous ailments is hardly deadly. We are a people of fools!
It's not science. It's political science or " the science"
Joe Biden said..
"Buy a man eat fish, he day, teach fish man, to a lifetime."
The relevance of this talk to our current 2020 life in the United States cannot be overstated. People have gone mad with safety. As if, just to stay alive is the whole point of life. I don't agree with this way of thinking and I hope most Americans wake up to the fact that life is to be lived despite all those possibilities of Destruction coming into your life whatever they be. We should not be forced away from each other by government decree. We should not be forced to wear masks inside stores that we contribute to. Big business should not be in business with government this way, which is a way of complete destruction in my view, not safety. Our small businesses in the United States have been hit by our own government like a bomb. Those orders coming from on high are really and truly destroying lives right now. Do you know the suicide rates? I just read a story of a young boy and his father. The boy was so isolated because of the orders to socially distance from his friends from the government, that he was in Despair and his father couldn't do anything about it. We all need to do something about it. Where is the compassion from these people in government. Covid-19 is the excuse? We have to honor life. They are not doing this. Love to everybody....💚
Amen

REMEMBER: The vaccine was not created as a solution to the virus, the virus was created with the end goal of delivering the vaccine. No man shall buy or sell unless they have the mark

Oh for a nation that once again recognized that survival at certain costs is not worth having.
The Devil creates all types of worries and diversions from seeking ultimate truths.
I only wish that people in power and influence had the same aptitude to express their ideology and philosophy with such truth and fluency.
They were chosen because they lack such fluency.
He is from another time and place. Genius
Does anyone have the CS Lewis Doodle of this excerpt? Seems like it's been removed everywhere and would love to watch it.
Same
apparently he lost the rights to use the voice over and took down the videos.
i wish i downloaded them when i had the chance, his abolition of man videos were invaluable
Is there a way he can get the rights back, I love C.S lewis doodles.
Suddenly relevant and needed once more.
Darkhorse brought me here. To state the obvious this should be our approach to Covid-19.
This was wonderful to listen to. And if people took his advice about living in the atomic age, then they should be able to calm down fairly quickly and stop worrying.
Thank you kindly for sharing this.
I’ve been looking for this for a while
Perfect metaphor in the age of the scamdemic
God bless!
sublime
Just wow!
Intellectually and spiritually delicious (so is listening to this fine by the same narrator from the space trilogy!)
The present day often seems extra special compared to the past.

This resonates a lot with some of the stoicism I've read
Spot on
Brilliant!
Yes. The animals do not know why we do not hear them. They love us. We do not give as they do...shame
Critical Thinking at its finest!
Why do we know we are not from here? Why do we feel like strangers? Because we are not like this place. We are energy, on a higher dimension than the visible dimensions our 5 senses can detect. Einstein gave us the clue: E=mc^2. Matter is energy. Energy is matter. We have a consciousness that even we cannot understand. Consciousness is the energy of existence. Through evolution, we have become slightly aware of our abilities, although we haven’t pulled the thread far enough. There’s so much more to learn. There are other beings out in the universe. Some more primitive, some more advanced, nonetheless they are out there. Watch the movie ‘Contact’. “If it’s just us ... seems like an awful waste of space.” Our journey has just begun ...
Could happen, for sure. I pray not.
Christ or Catastrophe!
These musings by the esteemed author can be seen as faulty.
These ideas,while inscrutable by scientific standards, lacks the wisdom of understanding. that each of of us with fully operating minds can conceive the entirety of existence.
A thing we can barely understand or fully describe. In essence we, as a people, can grasp a concept as large as a universe that does not care for us. So much so that the delicate balance will continue with or without our species continuing.
If we accept this, then we must also accept that the consciousness proliferated by such a system, also allowed for our species to comprehend such an ending.
That being said, we are inherently formed by a system that complacently allowed us to become aware of its own demise.
Being that not one individual would live to see the end of everything then where is the value of existence at all?
It is in the understanding that, perhaps the universe wishes to have a view of itself from the perspective of those living in itself to better understand why being is better than not being.
This view insinuates that while there is no ascertainable “intelligent design,” that we must also accept that nature, having birthed us in our present state, serves no purpose. But that would be a lie.
We are here and aware. If only to have that information reincorporated into the fabric of some greater being or construct; that, in fact, is worth our having had existed.
You matter. If only to me you matter. What we glean from this brief life matters more than you know.
Science is cold. But we are people.
It continues to baffle me that Lewis is held in such regard by some. Here, as elsewhere, he fails to understand the atheist argument about meaning and purpose in a natural universe - at least, he fails to address it CS Lewis seems to me evidence that for many apologists, a happy way with storytelling will stand in for philosophical rigour.
