I prefer to think of it as "They" rather than "We".

So was Les Miles a reader of C.S. Lewis?

Read the Screwtape Letters with your teenage kids. One letter a night.

Prophetic work (or Europe was further down the Marxist pike).

Probably Schnellenberger. Les was just parroting him.

Heck of a recommendation.

I raised three men who turned into MAGA Conservatives. One daughter is MAGA Conservative and the other is Independent/Libertarian.
Never once tried to steer their political views and never would have. My father raised me to be a staunch liberal and I always resented that part of my upbringing.

Why would I be? Nice guess though I suppose.

“Mere Christianity” a must read even if you are not a believer. Lewis was a prophet.

His "Mere Christianity" is my favorite.
