Before you start waxing lyrical about Lewis and criticising Pullman (have you ever read his books? - thought not) or throwing yourself onto the latest christianite bandwagon to nowhere....

Check out Lewis's other work - somewhat demented really:

"The time was ripe. From the point of view which is accepted in Hell, the whole history of our Earth had led up to this moment. There was now at last a real chance for fallen Man to shake off that limitation of his powers which mercy had imposed upon him as a protection from the full results of his fall. If this succeeded, Hell would be at last incarnate. Bad men, while still in the body, still crawling on this little globe, would enter that state which, heretofore, they had entered only after death, would have the diuturnity and power of evil spirits. Nature, all over the globe [...] would become their slave; and of that dominion no end, before the end of time itself, could be certainly foreseen."

Incidentally, it seems the reason he criticized Lewis is that other people were comparing him with Lewis...
