Why the Devil Loves Democracy

Best known for his Chronicles of Narnia series, author C.S. Lewis's The Screwtape Letters is decidedly different. The demon Wormwood is working on a particular human, a man known just as "the patient." He seeks his uncle Screwtape's advice on how to tempt the man into sin and ultimately lose his soul to "our Father below." Screwtape's tips for destroying the morality of humanity are much more subtle than you'd expect, and they sound surprisingly like Ayn Rand.
