Okay, first off, @rangerelik, don’t tell me to calm down. You don’t like me defending what I believe then stop interacting with my posts. I have every right to get angry when people keep forcing their OPINION on me and acting like it’s absolute law or fact. IT IS NOT.
Secondly, it’s not actually a Christian book. Just because Lewis used certain religious themes and beliefs from Christianity doesn’t make it Christian. First and foremost it is a FICTIONAL. FANTASY. SERIES.
He has Greek and Roman aspects in it too. Does that make it inherently Greek or Roman? No it doesn’t because it’s a fantasy series INSPIRED BY different religions or cultures.
Here’s an actual quote from Lewis himself on allegory and Christianity and Narnia:
“If Aslan represented the immaterial Deity, he would be an allegorical figure. In reality however he is an invention giving an imaginary answer to the question, “What might Christ become like if there really were a world like Narnia and He chose to be incarnate and die and rise again in that world as He actually has done in ours?” This is not allegory at all. So in Perelandra. This also works out a supposition. . . . Allegory and such supposals differ because they mix the real and the unreal in different ways.”
So no, Narnia is not some allegorical book representing Christianity. Stop trying to say it is when he HIMSELF said it’s not.
