Pasted from another thread regarding C. S. Lewis:
quote:

I used to sit in his favorite reading chair while sipping sherry once a fortnight in the chaplain’s office of Magdalene College. Then we would climb through the window on top of the roof and smoke cigarettes overlooking the master’s house where Rowan Williams (former Archbishop of Canterbury and chaplain to the queen) lived.

How did you end up as a regular in the chaplain’s office?

My buddy is a Prof there, and he introduced us, since they were classmates at Oxford. My buddy’s father in law was Lewis’s chaplain and friend at Cambridge.

But we’d discuss philosophy, theology, surfing, and gin. He was a good conversationalist so we picked each others brains. The chaplain is a great friend now and currently a priest in Cornwall.

He and I were involved in getting Jordan Peterson to the university, and inviting for a semester Fellowship, but was later sabotaged by the student union.
