One thought on “The Screwtape Letters | Letter Twenty Seven

  1. He uses the fact that if one prays and it does not happen, then there is no God and it is useless to pray. Then he uses the fact that if the prayer is answered and one thinks about it, factors exist that would have let it happen anyway.
    Sometimes, when something does go unanswered, I do feel that God is not there. With time and knowledge , that is lessening.
