Newly Discovered (C.S. Lewis) Letter Reveals Narnia Story is About Christ I hear there's a lion in it, too. And a witch. And some sort of cupboard.
No, really, wasn't the deeper message pretty well known from the outset?

I thought it was common knowledge that the story was based on Christ.

This is not news(no offense)..Most folks have always known of C.S. Lewis's strong Christian beliefs! Narnia has always been an allegory of Christ's life. I knew this reading the whole Choronicles in the 1970's!!
To: xzins
Well, to anyone who has actually read the book, the fact that it was based on Jesus was pretty much a no brainer.

Satire? In other news, it has a lion in it.

Anyone who ever read the works of C.S. Lewis would have had no doubt.

I heard the Gospels are about Jesus too.

And isn't Christmas about Jesus, too? I wonder if they knew that.

Call me skeptical, but this seems to be just a bit too convenient.

Yah...
Next thing you know, they'll say Ben-Hur had something to do with the whole Christ message too...

In the Last Battle, at the end of the book, Aslan actually transforms into Christ in front of the now grown up children. I'm with you, I don't think there was ever any doubt that Aslan = Christ.
BTW, my kids Christian middle school has Aslan as its mascot. They're taking the entire school to the movie next week. I was at the Steven Curtis CHapman/Mercy Me Christmas concert earlier this week, and they played a music video with a trailer from the movie. Looks AWESOME!

I was thinking tonight after reading an article that was posted earlier about Muslims teaching babies to hate Jews and Christians. The secularists are fighting the wrong people. The way it's going, conservative Christians may be the only ones who can save America and all it stands for.

Christians may be the only ones who can save America and all it stands for.I don't think a lot of the secularists want to save America and all it stands for. To them, who feel guilty for being alive, America is evil and the cause of most of the trouble in the world.
