The lion is supposed to be Jesus.

CS Lewis made Jesus Aslan the lion in the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
That character in his book also led to a falling out between him and JRR Tolkien. Tolkien felt his coming back to life was too close of a metaphor to Jesus’ resurrection.
 
I mean, yeah.
Tolkien and Lewis were members of an informal group called the Inklings. They would gather to drink beer, smoke their pipes and discuss topics of philosophy, literature and politics. Tolkien did not like using metaphors in stories, and he felt Lewis went too far with the story of the lion. It strained their friendship, and they were never that close again.

I left Twitter after Musk purchased it. Mostly because I am worried about protection of my privacy. With this new info coming out about his fellow “investors” I am even more happy that I quit posting there. Just wish I could erase my history on Twitter.

Huh, I did not know that.
