The Vivisectionist, the Pacifist, and the Humanitarian

That concludes the first section of my critique of CS Lewis's Abolition of Man, currently a work in progress. 

The second section, which considers a parallel argument about justice and punishment, and various matters arising, is currently available to supporters of my Patreon. If you aren't able to commit to $5 a month, the individual chapters can be purchased for $3 and the complete collection for $20. (You can pay in pounds sterling or flanian pobblebeads, of course.

I recently turned 60 (yes, really) and have mutated from a librarian who writes into a more or less full time writer, so if you have been considering lending your support to my writing, now would be a really, really, really lovely time for you to do so.
