One bit that stuck with me as actually having a memorable pro-Christian evangelising effect, was the bit where the dwarves are in the stable in the last battle and refuse to see Aslan and heaven.
It's like, however much I'd LIKE to be able to fly, people saying "flying it really awesome" is not going to make me more likely to start jumping off things, because however much I'd LIKE to, I have no reason to think it would actually work.
But if people say "everyone else does it all the time, it's really easy, just jump in the air and see", I find it really hard to say "no, I know in advance it's not going to work, I'm not going to try it".
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
