Please know that this is shared without any polemic tones, but shared with God’s love—His love and conviction always speaks of protection. [Gen.6:5;8:21;Ps.10:4;50:21=man’s mind apart from the mind of Christ (1Cor.2:12-13-14 versus 2:9-10,15-16) ].

Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963), professor of English literature at England’s Cambridge University, went to a priest regularly for confession (C.S.Lewis:A Biography, p.198). The sacrament of Extreme Unction was administered to Lewis on July16,1964 (ibid.,p.301). He also prayed for the dead: “Of course I pray for the dead” (Letters to Malcom, p.107).
Lewis held strongly to an evolutionary animal ancestry of man. “For long centuries God perfected the animal form which was to become the vehicle of humanity and the image of Himself” (The Problem of Pain, p.177).
He held that the Genesis account came from pagan mythical sources. “I have therefore no difficulty accepting the view of those scholars who tell us that the account of Creation in Genesis is derived from earlier Semitic stories which were pagan and mythical” (Reflections on the Psalms, p.110).
Lewis did not believe in a bodily resurrection (C.S.Lewis: A Biography, p.234). He rejected the doctrine of the total depravity of man. “I disbelieve that doctrine” (The problem of Pain, p.66).
He said the Book of Job is “unhistorical.” He also said the Bible contained “error,” and asserted the Neo-orthodox concept that the Bible “carries” the Word of God and is “human material” (The Problem of Pain, pp. 110,112).
Lewis believed and taught that one could reason oneself into Christianity, and he was an opponent of the substitutionary and penal theory of the Atonement. He never embraced the literal-infallible view of the Bible. (Christianity Today, Feb.28, 1964, pp 34-35, written by W.W.Shader, a liberal Baptist)
C.S.Lewis was a philosopher (see Acts17:22-23-25-28).
