This article reminds me of That Hiddeous Strength--the last book of CS Lewis's space trilogy. Has anyone else read it? I have never read a better fictional account of where scientism leads. I would even go so far as to call his book prophetic. All the best--GGG

That book creeped me out.

Generally I like Lewis but I could not stand that series.

I read it, need to read it again, because I don’t think I “got it” that first time.

I read it, years & years ago. I think the points Lewis made, as I remember them, were excellent. But as fantasy, I’ve read better.
