Narnia Explained

Here is a fabulous letter by John Mark Reynolds (thanks, Hugh Hewitt) to a fictitious friend, who is borderline religious, about the Christian underpinnings of the Narnia story.

It's a bit lengthy, but it explains many things about C.S. Lewis's writing, things that are sorely missing from today's "myths". Even why our "Big Science" is a myth! Things such as the tension between "self" and "things", the existence of life on other planets, the slate of world religions, the value of humor (or jollification!) and why the political/theological extremists in our society can't be jolly... It's all in there for you to ponder!
