Chapter 12
What is the “safest road to Hell”? Do you agree or disagree?
I disagree. I would say that there is no "safe" way to hell. I think that Screwtape is confusing "the safest road to Hell" with the most popular one. Most people gradually sin. It never comes at you like one big sin. It slowly creeps up on you. For myself, if I was relating this to cheating, I never just cheated on one big final exam. It was the little home works that I only needed a couple answers on. Then it started to be the whole homework. Then started to become tests. Whenever you hit a sin, it's always a slow "fade."
What is the role of “nothing” and “small sins”? What does that mean for you?
This "nothing" is very big in society. Most people just get so caught up in the little things that don't even matter that they miss the important things in life. I can relate to this "nothing" effect. I would call this more procrastination. I procrastinate on my devotions and on my actual relationship with God with "nothing" because usually I'm just too lazy.

Which human said “...active habits are strengthened by repetition but passive ones are weakened”?
Is C.S. Lewis quoting himself?
