C. S. Lewis: Myth & Truth

from Red Letter Philosophy Hosted by Red Letter Philosophy

Previously, we discussed C. S. Lewis' contention that myth transcends thought. In this episode we look at the fact that incarnation transcends myth. C. S. Lewis wrote that, "The heart of Christianity is a myth which is also a fact." Religious belief has a foot in both the concrete and the abstract; the empirical and the rational; the mythical and the factual. Until this is understood, the deepest truths will allude us.
