Lewis went through many philosophical and religious schools of thought through his life-long search for the truth. He did spend a period of his life claiming to be an atheist of sorts, but never really conceded his belief in the existence of diety -therefore he redefined the term "atheist" to suit his particular questions. He eventually came full circle back to where he started out in his theological beliefs, and his writings reflect this quest. This is why, as with any human writer, it is important to balance individual quotes, books, thoughts, etc against the backdrop of his life and the entirety of his body of work.</p></blockquote><p></p>
