Steve, I wonder if we are talking about the same organization. We receive a monthly newsletter from Institute for Creation Research, but, unless you are using hyperbole, not enough to need another room in the house to store it. You are probably using hyperbole, but thought I'd inquire.
I think the kids have a book on that beetle.
It sounds like, with your job and the reading you must do to keep up with it, you have plenty to read without reading C.S. Lewis. It seems that, every Christmas season, I see sets of his books packaged together. Usually the 3 sci-fi books in a set, and the 7 "Narnia tales" (Aslan the Lion and all that stuff for kids and mature adults) in a set.
Good logic, in what you said about the banishment and us being subject to death really being a blessing. Satan is not subject to death like we are, so the only death for him, prepared already, is the bottomless pit. Thinking about it, I guess that is also why there is no possibility of redemption for him or any of the angels that fell. They are not subject to death as we know it in our mortal bodies, so there can be no substitute in their place to thus die in their place.
