+Legoindy7734 Here, here!

Great line.

It's pretty damn awesome. What's really great is that one line basically summarizes the book. X)

I love it too!

I'll be using that phrase

+viKing1428 Same XD

+viKing1428 If it snows and it ain't Christmas, then it ain't worth shit!

+viKing1428 Ah well, I don't have a problem with that. I guess black people have it tough in the cold, though.

Natasel I don't have any survival gear, but I take the occasional naked winter stroll. Though I have to admit that usually I'm wearing a T-shirt and every other year even a sweatshirt once or twice, so I have no right to claim that the cold does not bother me. I'm not at the level of ice water skinny dipping, though.

it was magic turkish delight

For me it is.

Finally someone who agrees with me! *gives high five to Zenon*

Crystle-Marie Loomos was it magical Turkish Delight?

Exactly. Only donuts are worth selling your soul for. Just as Homer Simpson.

+Metabeard And here, here to you too!

lol

Mine is "Bitch, I'm f**king Aslan"

That's one of my favorites too. My other favorite is "Guess where we been, bitches? NARNIAAAAAAA!!!"

I know! And the movies totally ruined this by making him sympathetic. He is the Trump supporting relative to your relatively progressive person. He is a dick. He is a little shit. It's as much a story about his reformation as it is about Jesus.

Not to mention doing it in a hilarious way.

Yes, I agree with you 👏

Moorcock my dude

Actually Newton was actually the first to theorize of the multiverse

@@miguelherrera5654 He means in novels

@@shiroiku9314 Technically that would go to dc comics.

@@michaelterrell5061 Wouldn't it be HP lovecraft who also thought of it.

Kinda sad that we'll never get the rest of the books.

same

True

Me too! God bless this dude! 😂😂😃

Like wise. I showed this to one of my pastors & he asked if he did the other books. Guess he liked it.

+Kayla Lindo 20 minutes into Thug Notes & chill and he give you this insightful analysis

+Yung Chase lol!

when and where babe?

Although being a Christian, I have yet to read it. My mum told me she recommends I wait to read it after a few years since it's geared toward older Christians. But yeah, love that reference to it, I never knew that was where the statue part came from. Definitely eye-opening.

@@QUARTERMASTEREMI6 'Mere Christianity' is a chore to read and abit preachy, but it does neatly wrap up CS Lewis's take on modern Christianity. For best results I recommend reading Nietzsche first, most specifically 'Thus Spake Zarathustra' as it was a real catalyst for CS Lewis to write his books in attempted response.

@@fortusvictus8297 Huh, thanks for the recommendation. I'll have to read it sometime.

I would so love to see that one too. It is the first in the series , after all.

I would so love to see that one too. It is the first in the series , after all.

@@caitlyncobb8446 actually CS Lewis wrote this one first but Chronically It’s the first in the series

The books are RIDDLED with Christian imagery and allegory. You can still love the books if you aren't religious though. It's a beautiful story.

@@bettyjojoeharperre-imagina7322 I became an atheist after reading The Chronicles of Narnia in middle school. Reading it helped me to see how easy it is to create a religious-themed fantasy novel like the Bible (it is so for the most part).

@@gs7828 lol are you serious, the Bible is way deeper than that. C.S. Lewis was writing this specifically for children. Of course it’s going to be very fairytale-ish but the main doctrine of the Gospel of Christ i shown. It’s only easy to make stories like this once you know the Gospel, but the Gospel isn’t made up.

@@a.d4874 Of course there are many useful moral teachings in there, plus some virtues still common today. This doesn't make the dogmas written in there true or valid. As simple as that.

very subtle allegory, c. s. lewis

+Poisoned-cupcake Loved the books as a kid. Read Prince Caspian so many times the book actually split in half. Had the same reaction you did trying to reread them as an adult. As far as Edmund, yeah, as a kid reading them, he came off as a mean little dickbag, but as an adult, I can't help feeling bad for a character who's really just a little boy being manipulated into betraying his family and possible getting them killed (whether he knows it or not). Though maybe his denial of Narnia being a real place was a way to try to protect his siblings from the white witch. #fantheory

+Poisoned-cupcake Same for me (ex-catholic, currently agnostic). They were the first books that I got really invested in. It helps a lot that Lewis writing is very clear and easy to read. I think my favorites are The horse and his boy (it is the only one that is completely told in-world and a great coming-of-age story) and Voyage of the dawn traveler (I loved how different each island was and how each had a unique story).

Dgmw, I think that there's a lot of really good stuff in here about love and forgiveness that definitely reminds me of why I actually love religion, but there's also a LOT of really heavy-handed symbolism and non-Christian shaming in the other books, which is the main issue I take w the series as an adult (I'm gay and had to deal w a lot of similar shaming growing up)

+Robert “Frank” Martin lets not forget the fact that edmund just sorta lost his parents they cant take care of them because of that silly war and he seemed to be the one who is most upset about it

So, I'm here out of honest curiosity, no arguments or anything, but where was the non Christian shaming in these books? It's been a while since I read them but I really don't remember that...

+The Napoleonist are you serious?

It's like poetry. Each stanza rhymes with the last one.

hımmm..

+prohri uhri completely. Though most people mispronounce it. Its pronounced Ass-lan (this according to a Turkish dude I went to college with) not Az-lan. Then again, how many little kids do you know that could say Asslan with a straight face and not crack up?

+Robert „Frank” Martin There's only on 's' in it...

+Racist Bassist because people become butthurt by religion.

school is 40% propaganda. i hav a friend whos trying to be a teacher. says she cant teach the whole truth of history because its going off the curiculum and can be fired for it. its only once you get to college that they dont care anymore

+The Abortion Sad but all too true. There has yet to be a propaganda-free teaching of the American Revolution.

because some things arent ok for kids. if most of the parents dont like the book, then i gets banned. so it is freedom.

Hermaeus Mora IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'm not a moron, you're just an ass. I'm not talking about Catcher in the Rye, I'm talking explicitly about The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe. You're pretty fucking ignorant to the fact that the US has gone anti Christian, don't fucking throw your fake ass books on me telling me that ain't how it is. Cuz it fucking is and you fucking whiners just act like you're being assaulted by Christians when Christians haven't been a legit threat in like 200 years. TLTWATW is a book about religion at its very core. C.S Lewis WROTE the book FOR people to come to Christ. I couldn't even bring up Christianity and how good religion is in history or english class, let alone physical science class without being threatened for detention before. get the fuck outta here kid. I literally just fucking graduated last year. I know what the highschools are like now. Christian teachers are even afraid to tell students who and what they are when students ask them cuz they dont wanna get fire let alone get sued in some fucking ridiculous way. and Catcher in the Rye WAS indeed religious, idiot. It even fricking had religious themes in it, it was one of the main fricking themes IN it.

Right?! Like the heck is wrong with you? Don't you like an allegory? Wait, you didn't like Harry Potter either? Damn they don't like Christian allegory at all...

Vilmundur Gunnarsson makes perfect sense. religious zealots are dumb as shit.

Vilmundur Gunnarsson I love this book. And I am an atheist.

I know, how can you hate Lion Jesus! Lion Jesus is the flip!

Wanna hear something else funny? It wasn't the Christians enforcing the ban. THAT was the American United for the Separation of Church and State. www.chron.com/opinion/outlook/article/Lion-witch-and-censor-Unfortunately-for-all-yes-1939898.php But thanks for letting us know how you feel and attracting this... interesting array of comments. Well done, suckas. You played yo'selves.

Dude thank you. I remember reading 2 of the books and procrastinated off of reading the rest until I forgot that it existed. Now I remember, btw, last time I checked they did a Netflix series on the books, don’t know if it’s good, but I know it exists.

@@gamelandmaster3680 it's pretty good, and faithful to the original. They took a few liberties, but it's the best books-to-tv show adaption I've seen in a while.

YUS!

We are all his homies in the hood.

Susan and Caspian romance is something my brain tries really hard to forget.

ricardo mendoza same here but I'm 20

Welcome! We're working on The Fountainhead now. Thanks for subscribing

No problem! Looking forward to it. Wishing you continued success.

+Wisecrack where was ThugNotes 7 years ago when we had to read The Fountainhead in high school? That book report would've slayed with your help!

+Lori Funorie Yuck, they're having people read Ayn Rand in high school now?

+Phillip Savage And Catcher in the Rye, at the same time! The contrast is strong with these two.

Hannah Louie Oh, that's a great one.

yes please

+Comrade Waifu I remember listening to that on audio book while on a road trip when I was a kid. The unabridged version was on 12 audio cassettes and had a full cast, while the abridged version didn't and was on 2 cassettes. I was surprised when someone told me that that trilogy was about atheism and killing God, because I never saw any of that. Maybe it was mostly in the third book? I never did get around to reading that one, just the first two.

+Sentinalh It's been ages since I've read that trilogy and would really like to see it here. As a kid, the first book made very little sense to me until I had read the second book, and it was revealed that our world existed alongside all these others. It never felt like it was written for kids IMO. But anyways, it's not so much atheist as it is anti-religion by the end. The last book has a lot of references to Adam and Eve and the truth of the demons and sin. Plus God is portrayed as pretty pathetic.

+Comrade Waifu YES! My all-time favorite fantasy series!

+Sentinalh For some it is blatant from the get go, I know for me it was page 246 of the third book where this random anti-religious ranting bursts forth like something from an alien movie.

+Roxanne Ferreira I got the feeling he was talking about the catholic church from the very beginning in the first book, with mrs. Coulter and her pure cult that severed children from their daemons -it seemed so very analogous to the fear and hate of children's eventual sexuality to me -but it does come in full-force in the third book, what with the actual God making a pathetic entrance. Also, I second the notion of a "Dark Materials" analysis, maybe specifically book-by-book even

seconding that second
