re: #161 pre-Boomer Marine brat

I haven’t read CS Lewis’ Narnia books, but it my understanding that their plots involve magic. Have the evangelicals tried to ban Lewis too?

/that’d be hilarious

Actually, the evangelicals are none too happy with Lewis, but for entirely different reasons. They see him as a Catholic apologist, a filthy Papist, and - like all who stray so much as the breadth of a gnat’s eyelash outside their narrow view of faith - a heretic.

It’s more an under-the-breath sort of murmuring, though, compared to their normally strident, torches-and-pitchforks calls to arms they issue against those promoting science, and other forms of outright sorcery.
