Thanks for cluing me in to these. 2019 may have been before I arrived at the Bulwark.

To anyone looking for them, here's the first in the series:

The others can be found by searching for the title "The Screwtape Letters, Part ___".

Marcus, you're welcome. I hadn't read Screwtape before Tom did his homage, but I've been going through the various chapters of the original one by one. If you're interested, Lewis' letter 7 touches on men who make the world an end and faith the means. My favorite passage in Tom's homage is found in his part 7:

"Convincing humans to do evil in the name of the Enemy is still one of our finest maneuvers, and you will find it highly enjoyable."
