The "gates of heaven" scene in the film adaptation of Voyage of the Dawn Treader was quite moving. Some of the ultrapious will probably lecture the rest of us as to the shortcomings of the characters for preferring to return to the regular world rather than adventuring on to "Aslan's country" when provided with the opportunity. However, perhaps the greater truth is that we do not desire such a pilgrimage before it is our intended time.
