I hope you understand that I enjoyed reading “Mere Christianity” by C. S. Lewis. Pick it up for yourself. Not only will you learn something about Christianity, but also about yourself and progress. You will learn things about Christianity, but also about life and decisions you make. Let me give you one example:

“ . . . progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man.

“We have all seen this when doing arithmetic. When I have started a sum the wrong way, the sooner I admit this and go back and start again, the faster I shall get on. There is nothing progressive about being pig headed and refusing to admit a mistake. And I think if you look at the present state of the world, it is pretty plain that humanity has been making some big mistake. We are on the wrong road. And if that is so, we must go back. Going back is the quickest way on.” (Mere Christianity, by C.S. Lewis, 1952, page 28-29).

I also suggest that you read my book about the last week of Christ’s life; “The Illegal Trial of Christ.” Then add to your knowledge by also reading my book; “Founding Fathers–Uncommon Heroes.” It is clear to me that we are no longer on the road that the Founding Fathers were so careful to give us. It may be a good idea to return to their words! Going back is the quickest way on.
