나니아 연대기 질문

First question: What does Aslan mean? (read description)

I know in several books, Aslan is known for saying: "No one can know what WOULD HAVE happened."
Yeah, okay, I got that, I respect that. But...
In the Magician's Nephew, Aslan tells Digory what would have happened if he had taken the 과일 for himself.
This totally threw me off. Please help me!

Hmmm...that is a good question. I'm not sure if there is a definite answer to it, but this is how I personally see it.

No one is ever told what would have happened, and no one is told any story but their own. That's a given. HOWEVER, if 당신 think about it, Aslan wasn't so much telling Digory what would have happened as much as He was explaining how the 과일 works. How 당신 can "find your heart's desire, and find despair" (in other words, "Be careful what 당신 wish for!") He told Digory what would have happened because it was necessary for him to understand and learn from it.

But in other instances, like Aravis wondering about the servant girl (in HHB), 또는 Lucy wondering about what might have happened had she gone to Aslan at once and left her siblings behind (in PC), it wasn't so important. Whether she knew 또는 didn't know wouldn't matter 또는 make things any better.

There are also two other factors to keep in mind: One, Aslan isn't a tame Lion. *wink* Two, Aslan is a wonderful but fictional "supposal" of 예수님 created 의해 a wonderful but imperfect human being named C. S. Lewis, who probably didn't obsess over his 책 nearly as much as us Narniacs do. :P There's bound to be a few mistakes 또는 plot hiccups here and there.

That's my theory, anyway. Hope it helped! :-)

Excuse me, but would it hurt to read the 설명 BEFORE answering? Because obviously 당신 didn't.

I think that aslan would have told Diggory because it was sort of a warning not telling what would have happened. Because if aslan didn't tell him he would have eaten it but he wouldn't have known the consequences. In other cases there was two endings. Like if lucy had come early there were two outcomes but both sort of ended well.
