This is what *I* who said it, wrote EXACTLY

CS Lewis is no Tolkien! His non-fiction writing is WONDERFUL, but like Tolkien, I find allegory a pathetic way of telling a story

Now...tell me...where in that sentence is the world "ALL"??????

And would your measure yourself as equal to Christ because you DO favor allegory?

Nice try.

You said "I find allegory a pathetic way of telling a story
", tell me where, in that, you say there are any allegories that aren't pathetic?

And no, I don't think I'm Christlike, although I wish I were. I do, however, find that people who make sweeping generalizations usually end up eating their words.

Want a fork?
