"It is no good asking for a simple religion. After all, real things are not simple. They look simple, but they are not. The table I am sitting at looks simple: but ask a scientist to tell you what it is really made of - all about the atoms and how the light waves rebounds from them and hit my eye and what they do to the optic nerve and what it does to my brain - and of course, you find that what we call "seeing a table" lands you in mysteries and complications which you can hardly get to the end of."
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity, Book II, Chap. II, 1943,p 46.
