MemberPerelandra by C. S. Lewis 182 pages
A little dull, rather confusing, the first book is better, etc. But I did love the floating island thing.
The Screwtape Letters by C. S. Lewis 224 pages
It was definitely interesting, though slightly dull. One thing that I find very interesting and annoying about this book (though it was a very small something, it’s more pronounced in Foulgrin’s Letters by Randy Alcorn) is the fact that the devils/fiends/criminal masterminds/whatever-you-wish-to-call-them don’t believe. They’re continually talking about how God’s love is a big joke, and Christ’s dying is some idiotic hogwash story, and such. Now I think that Satan and his minions should/do believe and know that they are in the wrong more then the rest of us. Ya know? After all, they where their at the beginning, Satan was once a angel himself. Which makes one think of the statement “believe and you will be saved” or one of those various jingles in the little John 3:16 booklets. Believe what? If it means believing God exists how can that save one? The devil believes it, too. Believe He is the way, the truth, and the life–the devil believes that too, deep down, I think he knows he’s wrong and will not win. Therefore, I don’t just want to believe, but I want to follow Him and I want to be like Him.
Yeah…Anyways. Back to topic! Continue! Carry on! Ignore me! I’ll try and shut up…

It’s okay, Owan.
I think James chapter 2 somewhat confirms what you’re saying, especially verse 19.

Although, Owan, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” is a Bible verse. Acts 16:31 to be exact. Though I do agree with you.

MemberHitler, by Albert Marrin- 241 pages
This author writes excellent historical books. It was very interesting to learn about what Hitler’s life was like as a child, and what made him the way he was. I enjoyed the book alot, even if it is about such evil.
