In this episode we tackle the second novel in C.S. Lewis’ Space Trilogy. We explore Venus as a new and innocent paradise, meet the mirror or our primordial Mother–Eve–and get to watch as she’s tempted by the Devil. But this time…this time, there’s another presence in the garden, our hero–Elwin Ransom–and he’s hungry for serpent! Lewis weaves theological concepts masterfully into the re-telling of the Eden myth. We explore the pros and cons of religious monism, the meaning of evil and contemplate if and how it can be conquered.
Enjoy 😉
