There's a lot in the first book alone. That whole Lion
(of Judah) who is innocent of all fault having himself
killed for something he didn't do, the women crying
over his dead body, his  resurrection and conquering
of the White Witch, the promised land he lives in with
his father the Emperor over the sea, blah blah blah.
When I was younger I sort of saw the allusions, but
when I got older I could see the Christianity oozing
from the books. It didn't diminsh the series for me.
Can't see why they would rewrite them. >< 

I've read and own all seven, but I'm gonna invest in a
set of hardback copies. My poor seven paperbacks are
ruined from repeated reading and some dropping in a
tub...

about it.
