The Screw tape Letters by C.S. Lewis

For those of you who dont know, the Screw tape letters are a series of letters from a Demon named Screwtape written to his nephew Wormwood. The letters show a very clinical, corporate veiw of Hell, one full of universities, protocol, pointless meetings and corporate ass kissing. Lucifer is shown as cult leader/Ceo as opposed to a dark god.

Hell is a business and that business is the temptation and consumption of human souls. The book has a very blunt yet interesting theological discussion about the ways humans ebb and flow from faith to a lack there in.

Considering Isiah's appreciation for the works of John Milton and Dante, The Screw tape letters would be right at home on the channel. As a plus the Screw tape letters repeatedly refrence and discuss not only characters and events from the bible, but also from John Miltons works.

The story is also interestingly set during WW2 and calls the man they are trying to tempt "The Patient"

Anyway, Wendigoon if you see this PLEASE do a screwtape video, would love if yall helped boost and spread this idea around
