Clive Staples Lewis, 1898-1963, was born in Belfast Ireland to a devout Christian mother who influenced his beliefs. After she died in his early youth, he was influenced by his agnostic/atheistic friends. Later, in a moment of clear rationality, he came to a belief in God and later became a Christian. After being wounded in WWI, he attended university at Oxford. He joined the faculty of Magdalen College where he taught ancient English. He often wrote clearly on the topic of religion. His most famous works include the Screwtape Letters, Chronicles of Narnia and “Surprised by Joy”, his autobiography about his conversion from atheism in 1931.† † http://christian-quotes.ochristian.com/Corrie-Ten-Boom-Quotes/ .
