Of course they're all metaphors - although sometimes informed by medieval writers who really did believe in demons, because Lewis was a well-read chappy. But if you're stuck in a plain-text reading of the bible, and you have this here Christian Book by a Christian Author, how else are you going to read it except literally? If you start countenancing *metaphors* you might have to think critically about the bible and we can't have that. (Allegory, for some reason, is easier to process.)

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
