The friendship with Mrs. Moore was particularly important to Lewis while he was recovering from his wounds in hospital, as his father did not visit Lewis.
Lewis lived with and cared for Mrs. Moore until she was hospitalized in the late 1940s. He routinely introduced her as his "mother", and referred to her as such in letters. Lewis, whose own mother had died when he was a child and whose father was distant, demanding and eccentric, developed a deeply affectionate friendship with Mrs. Moore.
Speculation regarding their relationship re-surfaced with the publication of A. N. Wilson's biography.

In 1930, Lewis and his brother Warnie moved, with Mrs. Moore and her daughter Maureen, into "
The Kilns", a house in the district of
Headington Quarry on the outskirts of Oxford (now part of the suburb of
Risinghurst). They all contributed financially to the purchase of the house, which passed to Maureen, then
Dame Maureen Dunbar, Btss., when Warren died in 1973.
Mrs. Moore suffered from dementia in her later years and was eventually moved into a nursing home, where she died in 1951. Lewis visited her every day in this home until her death.

[12] Surprised to find his English peers indifferent to Yeats and the
Celtic Revival movement, Lewis wrote: "I am often surprised to find how utterly ignored Yeats is among the men I have met: perhaps his appeal is purely Irish — if so, then thank the gods that I am Irish."
[13] Early in his career, Lewis considered sending his work to the major
Dublin publishers, writing: "If I do ever send my stuff to a publisher, I think I shall try Maunsel, those Dublin people, and so tack myself definitely onto the Irish school."
[citation needed] After his
conversion to Christianity, his interests gravitated towards Christian spirituality and away from pagan Celtic mysticism.

Lewis occasionally expressed a somewhat tongue-in-cheek chauvinism toward the English.

[15] He called this "my Irish life."
[citation needed]According to Paul Stevens of the University of Toronto, "Lewis's
Mere Christianity masked many of the political prejudices of an old-fashioned
Ulster protestant, a native of middle-class Belfast for whom British withdrawal from Northern Ireland even in the 1950s and 1960s was unthinkable."
[16]Conversion to Christianity
Raised in a church-going family in the
Church of Ireland, Lewis became an atheist at the age of 15, though he later paradoxically described his young self as being "very angry with God for not existing".
[17]His early separation from Christianity began when he started to view his religion as a chore and as a duty;
[citation needed] around this time he also gained an interest in the occult as his studies expanded to include such topics.
[citation needed] Lewis quoted
Lucretius (
De rerum natura, 5.198–9) as having one of the strongest arguments for atheism:
[18]
- Nequaquam nobis divinitus esse paratam
- Naturam rerum; tanta stat praedita culpa
- "Had God designed the world, it would not be
- A world so frail and faulty as we see."

The Christian apologist
In addition to his career as an English professor and an author of fiction, Lewis is regarded by many as one of the most influential
Christian apologists of his time;
Mere Christianity was voted best book of the twentieth century by
Christianity Today in 2000. Due to Lewis's approach to religious belief as a skeptic, and his following conversion, he has been called "The Apostle to the Skeptics."
Lewis was very interested in presenting a reasonable case for the truth of Christianity.

[35]According to George Sayer, a 1948 loss in a debate with
Elizabeth Anscombe, also a Christian, led to his reevaluating his role as an apologist and his future works concentrated on devotional literature and children's books.
[36] Anscombe had a different recollection of the debate's emotional effect on Lewis.
[36] Victor Reppert also disputes Sayer, listing some of Lewis's post-1948 apologetic publications, including the second and revised edition of his
Miracles in 1960.

For these reasons, Lewis's argument is regarded by some as logically unsound and an example of
false dilemma.
[38]
Lewis's Christian apologetics, and this argument in particular, have been criticized. Philosopher John Beversluis described Lewis's arguments as "textually careless and theologically unreliable".
[39] John Hick argues that New Testament scholars do not today support the view that Jesus claimed to be God.
[40] The Anglican bishop
N. T. Wright commented that the 'trilemma' argument "doesn't work as history, and it backfires dangerously when historical critics question his reading of the Gospels."

Lewis 1952, p. 26)
Lewis also had fairly progressive views on the topic of "animal morality", in particular the suffering of animals, as is evidenced by several of his essays: most notably,
On Vivisection[42] and "On the Pains of Animals."

Lewis continues to attract a wide readership.

Authors of adult
fantasy literature such as
Tim Powers have also testified to being influenced by Lewis's work.
Most of Lewis’ posthumous work has been edited by his literary executor,
Walter Hooper. An independent Lewis scholar, the late
Kathryn Lindskoog, argued that Hooper's scholarship is not reliable and that he has made false statements and attributed forged works to Lewis (
Lindskoog 2001).

Beyond Nature (named after a quotation of
Mere Christianity), Keaggy referenced Lewis in the titles of some of the songs (e.g., "Brother Jack", "Addison's Walk" and "County Down").
Phish has a song titled "Prince Caspian" named after the title character in Lewis's book Prince Caspian.
Christian guitarist and vocalist Phil Wickham wrote the song "Sailing on a Ship" based on The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and the song "Heaven and Earth" based on The Last Battle.
