Choose a topic that Lewis covered in Mere Christianity, then summarize his arguments and counterarguments for the topic. After that, answer the following questions:
•Which of Lewis’s arguments on your topic do you find most convincing, and why?
•Which of Lewis’s arguments on your topic do you find least convincing, and why?
•Some early critics accused Mere Christianity of “preaching to those who were already converted” (E. L. Allen qtd. in “Why C.S. Lewis’s ‘Mere Christianity’ Received Bad Reviews”). Do you think this is the case? Do you believe that Mere Christianity is aimed at converting the unbeliever, convincing the seeker, or preaching to the converted?
Your paper should be three to five pages (not including title page and reference page) and should be APA formatted. Feel free to bring in outside sources for evidence or examples.
You do not need outside sources to complete this essay. Here is the reference from our textbook. For direct quotes, you will cite Lewis (2017) and not the original date of the work. Include p. for page number with all borrowed quotes.
