No, my argument is that the books deliberately show the "middle eastern" culture and religion in a negative light in order to present Christianity as the best and only true religion.
- ng12 9y agoHave you read the books? Tash is explicitly a demon-type figure who rules through fear. I think you're projecting quite a bit.
- olavk 9y agoYes, Tash is presented as the evil religion compared to good and just Aslan. What exactly are you arguing?
- ng12 9y agoThat whatever parallel you're trying to draw between Tash/Aslan and Christians/non-Christians doesn't really hold water. In fact I'd argue the message is the opposite -- that because the Calormen have a different culture, believe different things, and occasionally fight with Narnia doesn't mean they're bad people.
