C.S. Lewis was a 20th Century Anglican author. His sayings are often quoted in traditionalist Christian circles, especially in World Orthodoxy. As a committed Anglican, he was staunchly ecumenist.

Writings

The Screwtape Letters

The Screwtape Letters and Screwtape Proposes a Toast were a series of fictional letters from a senior demon to a junior demon, largely dealing with the subject of tempting men into sin. In this the religious views of Lewis, especially on sin, salvation, and ecclesiology, are revealed by the words of the demonic protagonist. There are a number of marked differences from Holy Orthodoxy. For example those who oppose ecumenism are called Pharisees and Lewis paints a vivid picture of anti-ecumenists of opposing views being damned together and forced to mingle forever.
