Résumé : | In seven witty, lucid, tough-minded essays, C. S. Lewis considers questions that challenge the faith of modern Christians. He discusses the efficacy of prayer, the various usages of the phrase “I believe” the meaning of words like “culture” and "religion;’ the interplay of "good work” and "good works/ the religious implications of life on other planets, and the doctrine of the Second Coming. This collection is also notable for a Screwtape dialogue in which that "very experienced devil" makes a brilliant speech on the opportunities for exploiting evil in the world, concluding “Nowhere do we tempt so successfully as on the very steps of the altar. ” |
