Level 1: Characters in a fantastical setting with no clear analogue of any real-world culture or religion celebrate Christmas; the implications of this are never examined

Level 2: Characters in a fantastical setting celebrate a secular, non-denominational mid-winter holiday which just coincidentally involves many of the same rituals and observances as Christmas

Level 3: Characters in a fantastical setting celebrate a mid-winter holiday commemorating an invented folk-hero whose mythos furnishes elaborate alternative explanations for various Christmas observances

Level 4: Characters in a fantastical setting celebrate Christmas because in spite of the setting's history otherwise bearing no resemblance to that of Earth, for some reason Catholicism still exists

Level 5: Whatever C S Lewis was on

Płacz trochę pomaga – dopóki się płacze. Ale w końcu, wcześniej czy później, trzeba przestać płakać, a wtedy trzeba się zdecydować, co robić dalej.

C. S. Lewis, „Opowieści z Narnii. Srebrne krzesło”

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art.... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.

-- C.S. Lewis

every time I re-read Chronicles of Narnia and Lord of the Rings, I'm like "damn, these go so hard", and every time I forget that both authors went through two World Wars. of course it does
