A spy in the house of Narnia

When I was about 6, my father was in the midst of reading to me about Aslan the lion in C.S. Lewis's "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." Aslan had been shorn and strapped to a stone table and killed, and then miraculously come back to life, when my dad stopped mid-chapter to ask, "Does this remind you of any other story?" I had zero religious training from my mixed-marriage parents, but I had had an elderly Slovak baby sitter who had ignited in me a temporary enthusiasm for the Baby Jesus. "Does this remind you of what happened to Jesus?" Yes! It did, as a matter of fact!

I don't know if it is truly possible to recall moments of cognitive growth from 25 years ago. But the memory of this episode is very strong: http://adjix.com/ntft
