Today, we’ll consider two more classic movies, Star Wars – A New Hope and Star Wars - The Empire Strikes Back. In The Empire Strikes Back, there’s scene near the end of the movie in which Darth Vader reveals to Luke Skywalker that he is Luke’s father. In A New Hope, Hans Solo returns to help his friend Luke after first taking off with the reward money to save his own skin. We’ll use these scenes to help us set up a question that C.S. Lewis tackled in Chapter 2 of Mere Christianity: If not from God, then where do we get our idea of good vs. evil? To order Discovering Mere Christianity at the Movies, go to https://payhip.com/b/dpXL
