Mere Christianity

And what is even more astounding is that all cultures have similar rules of fair play.
quote:
I don't find this astounding at all. Humans live in groups and have lived in groups since long before we were human. Some behaviors are more conducive to life in a group than other behaviors. Simple. The argument Lewis tries to make just doesn't hold. As PaulK said, he ignores or is ignorant of the facts. ( I did go to Amazon and read the sample pages of his book. ) Sorry. Wanna try again?

The list of arguments that C.S. Lewis makes are something that might be interesting to you. In the book Lewis does indeed make a compelling argument about the law of human nature and why it universal. Lewis makes another argument that the place to look for a personal God is within the person, not outside of it. Get this book and see what you think.
