Thanks for another great post.
All villains think they are the heroes in their own minds.
For the common good is a good excuse for tyranny, and those restricting freedom don’t care that that is the definition of tyranny.
C.S.Lewis wrote Screwtape Letters,
Very interesting stuff.
I have read several of his books.
I should read more and lose this
dumb phone.
Tyranny,,
Theft by political power.
Theft of life,liberty and
The pursuit of happiness.
My favorite three are the Great Divorce, Abolition of Man, and Pilgrim's Regress, but I like them all (I mean his books for adults, not so much Narnia). Mircales and The Problem of Pain are great if you are into apologetics. Warning about Pilgrim's Regress...its a weird one, first book he wrote since becoming a Christian I think, and he was a bit less charitable in it than his others.

"The quest of the Inner Ring will break your hearts unless you break it. But if you break it, a surprising result will follow. If in your working hours you make the work your end, you will presently find yourself all unawares inside the only circle in your profession that really matters. You will be one of the sound craftsmen, and other sound craftsmen will know it.
This group of craftsmen will by no means coincide with the Inner Ring or the Important People or the People in the Know.
It will not shape that professional policy or work up that professional influence which fights for the profession as a whole against the public: nor will it lead to those periodic scandals and crises which the Inner Ring produces. But it will do those things which that profession exists to do and will in the long run be responsible for all the respect which that profession in fact enjoys and which the speeches and advertisements cannot maintain."
