  • What did CS Lewis believe? The anglican writer and poet never thought of himself as a theologian; yet we swim in his theological waters. Perhaps no popular Christian thinker influenced Western Christianity more in the 20th century than Clive Staples "Jack" Lewis. So, this is his story. Let's explore 🚀

    it is no exaggeration to say that Lewis is the reason I am a Christian today, his books left me whit no choice other than to believe. What I learned trough him gave me force to stand straight before a lot of thigs that before I considered too much to bear. The debt of gratitude I owe this man I never met is incalculable. Thanks for the great video!

    If he was born in Belfast that would make him British not Irish. And Magdalene college is pronounced Mawdlin.

      It is a bit complex there. Some see themselves as British and Irish, some as Irish and some British. Look at the Irish rugby team it has players form both side of the border.

      Well, considering my mum was also born in Belfast, not one day of her life did she ever considered herself "a brit"
      Nor should any real Irishman ever take on the dirty label of british.

      Everyone wants to claim Lewis - the Irish, the British, Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox. I think it's fair to say that as he gave himself to God, God returned by giving him to the world, and thus is owned by all and none.

    Something like Christianity is the true religion.
