Total Depravity

C. S. Lewis on the doctrine of Total Depravity:

I disbelieve that doctrine, partly on the logical ground that if our depravity were total we should not know ourselves to be depraved, and partly because experience shows us much goodness in human nature.

- C. S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain, (HarperCollins, 2002) p. 61
