I’m totally not correcting this in a fit of snooty elitism, so much as maybe this’ll better focus further LOST theories.

While yes, Lewis incorporated a lot of Christian imagery and allegory into the Chronicles of Narnia, Narnia the country was never a stand in for Heaven. There was still violence, terror, death, tragedy, sadness etc. which stood opposite to Lewis’ theological idea of an afterlife. Narnia and the world it existed in was considered an alternate reality but still very “here and now” albeit in a fairytale/fantasy setting. There was an allegory of Heaven, but it was Aslan’s Country, found across the sea at the edge of the world (Prince Caspian after he had died was later seen there, young and alive at the end of The Silver Chair). At the end of The Last Battle which was all about the end of the world as they knew it, they “passed through” a dark ominous stable door and found themselves in the edge of a new reality or existence that was a) was a much fuller plane of existence than what they had previously understood it to be and b) incorporated all that was Good, not just of Narnia, but England and everything and everywhere else. It’s there that Aslan tells them that they are dead and have passed from The Shadowlands (later in a book that Lewis while grieving the loss of his wife, Joy, Lewis referred to this reality as the same) into Morning. This was Lewis’ idea of a new perfect Heaven and Earth that you find at the end of Christianity, philosophy.

All that to say: Them being dead is what I’ve suspected all along, but I don’t think Lewis and Narnia adds credence to that theory.

Sorry to hear about the fire, I hope you are doing well. My wife and I dread the thought of a fire or robbery since most of the things that go missing are things you cannot replace. Wish you all the best.

Pleaseeeeeee cut down the spy tip stuff. I’d really like the show if you’d tone that down a bit. Well, that and the humping stories. That’s really not funny in the slightest, in fact, it’s quite gross.

Let me be one of the many to say, as a 18+ year StreetFighter fan. Keep T.Hawk and DeeJay’s defunk asses out of SFIV. T.Hawk has always been an unbalanced characters his moves have zero openings when blocked.

DeeJay as said is one of the worst character designs ever created. I’d love to see Alex, Ibuki or Makoto from SF3 before anyone.

I find it kind of disheartening that they just completely throw SF3 out the window. It’s kind of a slap in the face to all the fans of that game to not include anyone from that game.

Howdy Geekboxers. I was told you blogged about Emerald City Confidential so I thought I’d check this site out. Neat site you’ve got here. Thanks for the plug!

I always thought one of the main things about Lost was that they were throwing esoteric, yet real concepts at you. Granted, I only watched two or three seasons, but it seemed like most things were somewhat plausible . . . though the smoke monster has never made sense to me.

So, by definition, it really is sci fi. Anyway . . .
