The Genius that is C.S. Lewis
Sunday, August 19 LISTENING TO AM Radio - I Just Wanna Be Loved I wish I could express myself as much as C.S. Lewis does. He always manages to read my overwhelming emotions and thoughts, and then put them into words like no other author can. He is like the wise version of John <3 My argument against God was that the universe seemed so cruel and unjust. But how had I got this idea of just and unjust? A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line What was I comparing this universe with when I called it unjust?...Of course I could have given up my idea of justice by saying it was nothing but a private idea of my own. But if I did that, then my argument against God collapsed too--for the argument depended on saying that the world was really unjust, not simply that it did not happen to please my fancies. Thus in the very act of trying to prove that God did not exist--in other words, that the whole of reality was senseless--I found I was forced to assume that one part of reality--namely my idea of justice--was full of sense. Consequently atheism turns out to be too simple. If the whole universe has no meaning, we should have never found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. 'Dark' would be a word without meaning. C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity (The above in layman terms (:) I love Jesus because He loves me. Simple as that. Enough updates? (: As for the prelimps, I've learnt something from it. That is, I still have a lot more to go. Soooo, prayers please (: See ya all around when I see you around! <3 |
