As we noted in earlier discussions, most notably on the garden of Eden story, Sin is self-engineered separation from God, a rejection of God's authority and seizing control of one's own life, choices, etc. What follows is the Delusion of Self-Sufficiency, hereafter, The Delusion. Augustine, Luther, C. S. Lewis, and many others have named this Delusion: Pride. So it is.
Yes, Lewis was an Anglican, but of the most Lutheran persuasion possible.
Following this line, it is clear that Individualism is contrary to all things Christian. This is why the "Me and Jesus" stuff bothers you so much.
