The notion of ownership in America is incredibly skewed. No, not skewed. Our notion of ownership is purely mistaken. We, as human inhabitants of this earth, cannot own any material good, any time, or any right. We are supposed to act as biblical stewards in regards to possessions, we operate inside of God's created time, and what rights we presume to have are merely granted us by the societies we live in. Therefore, any combination of suppositions as ridiculous as "I have a right to leisure time" is embraced by Satan's forces. In The Screwtape Letters, Uncle Screwtape affectionately encourages Wormwood to encourage such socially constructed assumptions in his patient.

In designing The Screwtape Letters, Lewis seemingly drew upon observable destructive Christian practices, and based demonic encouragements upon these common negative habits. I think he observed the fact that false belief in our earthly ownership affected Christians negatively and inferred that demons would greatly enjoy us to continue to believe that we can own anything on this earth.

As always, I think we need to examine our suppositions. I think we need to analyze our ideologies. I think we need to think realistically about counter-cultural Christianity.
