I enjoyed it, despite not being religious (although I'm also not militantly non-religious). CS Lewis is very witty, and he's clever in the way he uses his characters to prove his point. I wanted to read him because I wanted to understand why someone intelligent and highly educated would convert from atheism to Christianity, and I certainly think it was worth my time.

Additionally, this is completely subjective, but I found his writing style and the interaction between the two characters in the book both charming and endearing.

I think most people are just joking or being sort of sarcastic.

I did the maltese falcon one and it really is a good noir novel even if I was surprised by how much the book tries to be funny and how Sam Spade is just too cool for school.

There is such a richness in Plato the more pressure you apply to even menial aporatic works like the Laches the better your understanding of argumentation will grow to be. And yes, you are pathetic if you undertake a systematic study of philosophy without an understanding of the platonic dialogues and the role of dialectic.
Taking advice from /lit/ on Plato is usually disgusting most of these pseuds have never read the 7th letter or cannot differentiate between historical Socrates and the character displayed in the Symposium.

Haven't done any drugs, but I am verified schizotypal and psychopath. So maybe I just analyzed it in realtion to my experiences, and it was very touching description of how medical institutions, and how underdogs of society exist, and what anarchy can lead to.

Yeah, if only for the wonderful imagery. Worry less about what stuff means and just picture every word. It's kinda like the movie brazil, except without the sappy love story or limitations of film. I've done very limited amounts of a variety drugs, and that helps, but it's definitely not necessary
