Yes, I do not say anything more than that. I was sharing a doubt I had, not intending to hammer anyone over the head with facts. Nor did I intend to imply that you wanted to strip the faith of Divine anger - if anything, I was trying to say that I was not! I agree with you about dehumanizing others, too, and I find that bit in Lewis a bit too close to the overt racism of his Catholic friend Tolkien (and, incidentally, I love Tolkien too, though I find some aspects of his views disquieting). It is not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing, in general, so much as of trying to clarify a feeling I had.

However, as for "We are the world", I do disagree. With or without the incriminated line, nothing will change my view that it is a dreadful piece of sentimentality and disguised egotism. Compared to "Do they know it's Christmas?", it comes across, to me, as wholly self-regarding and deprived of any genuine emotion; the great line, "Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you!" has more to say to me than the whole of "We are the world". If you disagree, that is your privilege, but this is my view.
