Wally wrote (about a month ago): "The proper response is manly atheism.
Seize the bull by the horns and live life without the God that does not
exist anyhow. ... IMO that leads one to eventually think the problem through
completely and tends to result in the path followed by C. S. Lewis: From
atheism to theism to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ."
A recent book, THE MOST RELUCTANT CONVERT, by David Downing is a great
description of the process C. S. Lewis went through. The Dec 2002 issue of
PERSPECTIVES has my review on it -- an earlier version of my review, along
with ties to the thoughts of Blaise Pascal, was published two months ago on
Metanexus.
Jim -- I really recommend this particular book very highly. What C. S. Lewis
went through, I also encountered, and it may be what you are beginning to
encounter also. Even if not, it is fascinating reading.
