Lewis

I have got the impression that CS Lewis was of the Arminian impression. I have never read anything by him. Is this a correct impression?

I hear it often that he is arminian. But have never heard or read any sources that claim such.

Thanks Andrew. There is now no doubt if Lewis actually did say these things that he is an arminian heretic.

In Letters to Malcolm Lewis comes extremely close to Calvinism on pure philosophy. This is a book from close to the end of his life.
In Miracles he argues transcendentally.
