Summary

C.S. Lewis For Beginners is a thorough examination of C. S. Lewis, the greatest Christian apologist of the twentieth century, throughout his career as an author and as a professor at Oxford University. A Christian apologist defends Christianity as a consistent and coherent worldview that squares with human reason, history, and desire. It offers answers to every facet of our lives on earth as well as answers to our questions about what happens after we die. What makes C.S. Lewis unique as an apologist is the way he balanced so perfectly reason and imagination, logic and intuition, and head and heart. In addition to writing such non-fiction apologetics books as Mere Christianity, The Problem of Pain, and Miracles, he wrote eleven novels: the seven Chronicles of Narnia, a trilogy of science-fiction adventures, and a haunting retelling of an old myth set in the ancient world. All eleven tell wonderful, captivating stories that stand on their own as fiction but that also support and bring to life the kinds of apologetical arguments he makes in his non-fiction. He also wrote two utterly unique works of fiction, The Screwtape Letters and The Great Divorce, that offer a fresh, highly original take on sin and temptation, angels and devils, and heaven and hell. And that’s not all. Lewis the apologist and novelist had a day job. He was a celebrated English professor at Oxford, and then Cambridge, University who wrote works of literary criticism that are still famous today. C.S. Lewis For Beginners takes the reader through the wardrobe of his complete catalog of writing.

    When Brie receives a large, attachable "finger" that enhances sensation, the first thing she does is stick it on her clit. It works as planned and she proceeds to use it and abuse it, losing track of time in the process. Her best friend and co-worker, Erica, visits to investigate why Brie missed work, and Brie shares her new toy with her, allowing Erica to experience penetration as the giver for the first time. 
    The time finally comes to return the "finger," but Brie ends up trading it for a little red pill that creates a sizeable growth between her legs. This thing is the real deal, and Brie knows exactly who she wants to try it with.

    Rome's Greatest Generals -...

    The rise of the Roman general was a gradual yet transformative process that shaped the very foundation of Rome’s military might. In the early days of the Roman Republic, military leadership was closely intertwined with social status and political influence. Unlike later periods where generals held almost absolute power, early Roman commanders were often aristocrats or elected officials whose primary duties lay not only in warfare but also in governance and civil administration. 
    One of the pivotal aspects that shaped the rise of the Roman general was the evolution of military traditions. Initially, Rome’s military structure was heavily influenced by the Etruscans and other neighboring cultures. Early Roman armies were comprised of citizen-soldiers who fought primarily to protect their homeland rather than for conquest. Generals were typically chosen from the patrician class, and their leadership was seen as both a duty and an honor. As Rome expanded, the need for a more organized and strategic military became apparent, leading to the emergence of commanders who were not just noblemen but skilled tacticians. 
    The social and political influences on the role of the general were significant. During the Republic, the Senate played a crucial role in appointing generals, often selecting consuls or appointed military tribunes. These leaders were expected to exemplify Roman virtues such as bravery, discipline, and piety. The successes of early generals not only brought personal glory but also bolstered their political careers. Victorious commanders could parlay their military achievements into political power, as evidenced by figures like Scipio Africanus, who leveraged his triumphs against Carthage to gain influence within the Senate.
