Listen "Cultural Observances: C. S. Lewis' Till We Have Faces (Part 2)"
Episode Synopsis
In today's episode, Mason, Ife, and I continue our discussion of C. S. Lewis' greatest novel - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold. We touch on the Problem of Divine Hiddenness, —J. L. Schellenberg's formulation of the problem posed to the religious by the fact that God's existence (if God exists of course) remains hidden from many reasonable people— and how Lewis' characters illustrate the problem despite the book being written almost 40 years before Schellenberg's argument. We also bring up the skeptical problem posed by sincere religious faith, the differences between Orual and Psyche, and the importance of epistemic humility.
