Here is another little musing for this week! Do you like my more thought-based mini comics? 👀 Remember that you're special and that you are loved! God bless! I hope you enjoyed this week's installment of 'Slices of Gremlin'! I am going to continue updating every Tuesday, and if you would like to support the comic and get early access, you can sign up to be a member of the 'Little Creature Club' on Ko-Fi!
So though it is true that Narnia and Tolkien do have Christianity written into them, the main messages are not inherently religious. The ideas of good and friendship and fighting for what you believe in, whether religious or not, are for everyone, not just christians. I am an atheist and I still relate to the main themes in these works because even if I don’t believe in god I believe in other things such as love and loyalty, which are also themes in these books. So even if the authors were christian, the stories can still be relevant and relatable to all.
So stop gatekeeping. The stories do not belong to a specific religion and can be enjoyed and interpreted by all.
Non-Christians should not be allowed to touch Narnia or Tolkien/LOTR. Those were made for us and belong to us.
