The party’s suicidal revolutionaries prefer ideological purity to victory. Together, they want to march lockstep over the electoral cliff again, only further than last time.

Why Tolkien’s critique should disqualify Lewis’ work is not clear, unless one expects Christians to have identical worldviews and opinions, and to march in a rigid theological lockstep. One could, of course, advance this argument, but it is fundamentally unserious...
