Emile Vermin: Spoken like a true follower of that madman, C. S. Lewis: "The person who believes in the dogma of innate goodness and sinlessness of man has not yet met himself." FT

The person who believes in the dogma of innate goodness and sinlessness of man has not yet met himself. If you have met yourself and found innate badness and sinfulness, then I feel sorry for you. If you ever meet the real self you will begin to understand your need for the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. I have met myself and like a lot of what I found. I ain't perfect, nobody is, but I'm OK. I don't need the "Lamb of God" or any other dogma to assuage feelings of guilt or insecurity. And I thoroughly enjoy indulging in "sin" on occasion. I hurt no one in doing so. Christ came for those who recognize their spiritual illness and their need for healing. Fine for those who think they need it. I don't. Regards, JB
