Chronicles of Narnia...NOT the Bible, fools.

Hey there, I have a beef. Anyone who knows me knows I'm wayyyy anti-organized religion. So I have a comment to make. I just reread The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in anticipation of the movie, since it has special meaning to me. My dad read the entire series to my brother and me when we were little.

Now believe me, as I was reading this volume, I was LOOKING for any similarities to the Bible, to Jesus, etc. And I found just one: Aslan dies and comes back to life.

PEOPLE...Gandalf from Lord of the Rings dies and comes back to life. Dionysus died and came back to life in a story very much like Jesus' but written hundreds of years before Jesus was born. Countless other MYTHS AND FANTASIES involve people dying and coming back.

But my point is, that's pretty much the only similarity between Aslan and Jesus, so I think all the religious freaks out there who are diefying these books should think again, and those who won't see the movie or read the books because they think the books are religion-based, should read them because they really are great stories.

That's my diatribe. Have at it...
