        Yawn! Boring! No they don't, they just reveal his inner most thoughts & his observations. Don't pretend we all think sunshine and rainbows. If we all said what was in our heads we'd be awful people. It was his diary ffs!

        now he would have twitted his thoughts.. But this article it's a little shallow: what he could understand of other people whose language he couldn't understand? What he could understand of people he knew only by prejudice, urban legends, and a few days of travel?

        Oh for fucks sake so many people in this comment section are trying to seek the moral high ground by saying basically ”he was a racist and I am not therefore I am a better person”. shut up, if you lived in the same era as einstein you would probably have been xenophobic as well.

        So he held racist views before WW2 and after he spoke against racism. Gee, what could have happened in that time to change his views?

        And I am sure his xenophobic views were 100% genuine. So what.

        C.S. Lewis was an atheist in his younger life but Christians love his work... A life changed is still a life changed. Wish we all can become better people as we grow older...

        How it could be racist against Asians, as he praise big the Japanese. He just had reservations for Chinese ... it is just a personal opinion ...
