A friend has written about the applicability of the evil powers unleashed in Lewis’s book, That Hideous Strength, and the unleashing of the dragon of homosexual “marriage” in our own deplorable time. Here’s my response:

 

Regarding your comments about the connection between the NICE in That Hideous Strengthand NASTY “marriage” in our society, I would agree but simply add, by way of a timely reminder, that nature in Lewis’ novel, symbolized by the unleashed tiger (surely an allusion to Blake’s poem), metes out its own justice on those who attempt to usurp its power with unnatural abominations. We mess with the “fearful symmetry” of God’s design at our peril!
