Today is the death date for that mid-twentieth century apologist for the Christian faith, C.S. Lewis. Though Lewis is probably more well known for his fantasy series, the Chronicles of Narnia, which includes "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe". Those of us who grew up in the U.S.A. are more aware of the famous death of John F. Kennedy which also occurred on this date. An even less famous death which also occurred on this date, all in 1963, is Aldus Huxley. Huxley was a social commentator and believed in oriental pantheism. He also wrote the book, "A Brave New World".
A fascinating book imagining what these three men might say to each other if they had a round table discussion after death.
