Letter 22

This letter was slightly comical. I found it funny how he was ranting and raving about this woman that his patient is dating. He tells his nephew that he does not know how he missed this aspect. The way he describes this woman is much like how a best friend would describe their bestfriends girlfriend after they had been ditching them for him for a while. It seems as though they are jealous because and angry because now he has a reason to be with "The Enemy" as she is a part of his team. He tells how when everyone leaves there they have an "odor" to them. I found this funny because I can almost imagine a visual of this. I also foudn it interesting because it is true that after being in the presence of a true believer you do feel a different sort of passion. At least for a little while. I also found it interesting that at the end some one else takes over. I feel that this is because ScrewTape was just too aggravated with the situation. This chapter to me, seems to be more about showing the frustrations of how God constantly finds ways of having people come back to him when the devil is trying to take them away. I found it interesting how they used the situation that they did.
