Usually I agree with you, Blake, and in much of your post I can do this.
But I regard Lewis as a deep thinker, who ought to have understood how
his argument would be used, and, so, IMHO, his is the responsibility for
not at least pointing out the base assumption(s) at the point at which
the argument was posed.
I cannot fault my atheist friends in the RELIGION FORUM on Compuserve for
their derision of the argument AS IT STANDS. With the simple addition of
the assumption that the scriptures are valid testimony, the argument is a
good one.
