The Necessity of a Metaphysical Sense in Understanding Order
The speaker discusses the idea that reason and abstract principles cannot cleanse the heart of man or save humanity. Without a supernatural order or a metaphysical sense of order, technology and manipulation of nature will lead to a hellish war of all against all. The absence of a moral law or intangible order will result in science being used for the imposition of will upon others. The novel 'That Hideous Strength' by Lewis explores these concepts deeply, highlighting the importance of understanding that what appears random is actually part of a deeper pattern of order. To delve into Lewis's thoughts on this, readers are encouraged to start with 'Out of the Silent Planet,' the first book in the trilogy.
