That Hideous Strength a novel by C S Lewis describes N I C E an institution where this Theory is described. It is now found online as it is out of copyright
Can anyone tell me the name of the actor reading this? There is an audiobook of _That Hideous Strength_ read by the same man and I would like to buy it. I recognize the voice, but I don't know his name, so I can't find it.
I have a really silly question, but somehow I always forget to ask; is there supposed to an image or something in Lewis' pipe smoke? It's just seems like there would be if they were making sure to portray him smoking a pipe, w/ all that smoke. Am I missing something, friends? 🤤
I tried to listen to this while reading the book (1960, Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich) but they are not the same. Occasionally the words of this recording can be seen in the book but only occasionally and briefly. Did Lewis write 2 different versions? What's going on here?
And yet, Jesus gave a sermon on happiness right out of the gate. First teaching. At the Sermon on the Mount He offered us all blessed-happiness, a macro happiness (from the Greek “makarios”) that is immune to conditions. That’s what God offers us: happiness anyhow! In spite of mourning, persecution, pick a hardship, He offered this outrageous way of living that is above externals. Bless the Lord! He has made me glad!
I read this book, back when I was trying to remain an evangelical and believe in the Bible’s inspiration. But much of this book is about what’s terrible about the Psalms, and how we need to not agree with much of what we find there. I agreed, and I admired Lewis’s honesty. But that’s why they’re NOT inspired, and should be rejected, except as a document of what’s frequently wrong, and often dangerous, about fervently religious people.
I’ve given up on happiness. It’s caused me so much misery. Ironic. I’m in my 30s and yet to have any meaningful romantic relationship. I give up because it’s not in God’s plan for me to have a relationship. I won’t question why anymore. I’m released from this desire.
He's really missing the point, isn't he? Reducing the idea of deserving love and a healthy relationship to a mere sexual instinct. Too many people stay in abusive relationships because their partner can’t regulate their emotions like an adult.
First TWO minutes!! Listen to just that! & you’ll immediately know this man, C.S. Lewis to be an intellectual giant! His grasp of language, and ability to articulate and communicate so effectively on a subject. (A subject, that I myself personally, have have suffered much toil) as I too was once a teacher!! His writing never ceases to AMAZE!!
A classic case of the hero being a villain and every boogie man turns out to be innocent and evil country's harbor terrorists we never seem to. Find but they never lack in loot hmmmmm
Generation can be understood also as a new generation of cars f.i. So i think Jesus refers to a time of a new humanity in the flesh and in the soul: Thy Kingdom come!
A refusal to see .... many critics online cannot be corrected by argument. We need this when reading 'comments' on videos on RU-vid :-) I must remember!
Could someone please explain to me what he refers to as the "Tragic Dilemma" aswell the Partial Solution? I'm having a difficult time understanding what he's trying to convey.
Vivisection is just the tip of the iceberg of the cruelties and abominations done and unleashed. They've made genetically engineered monsters and pathogens like Sars and certain syphilises. They stuck severed chimp heads onto other chimp bodies and reanimated the brains. They've cloned sheep and grow meat in vats. They seek to engineer extinct species. Now they seek to make neural link brain chips to link all your information and bank accounts.
