A still-contemporary commentary from Mere Christianity (and if you’ve not read it…or read the book in a while…you should):
“One of the marks of a certain type of bad man is that he cannot give up a thing himself without wanting every one else to give it up.
“That is not the Christian way. An individual Christian may see fit to give up all sorts of things for special reasons—marriage, or meat, or beer, or the cinema; but the moment he starts saying the things are bad in themselves, or looking down his nose at other people who do use them, he has taken the wrong turning.” C. S. Lewishttp://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=jacksjots-20&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=0060652888&fc1=000000&IS2=1<1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr
