Edmund expresses uncertainty as to which side of the conflict in Narnia is the “right side.” What does this mean? Think about the robin for example. How are they to know which side is right and which side is wrong?

Pre-modern era

Edmund's protest reflects the logical, fact-oriented mindset of the twentieth century, in which people are more inclined to trust hard facts than their own emotions. This modern faith in reason is a departure from the pre-modern era, when people did not always require facts and evidence to believe in things. 

Christianity

For example, people believed in the Bible without demanding proof that Jesus actually lived and performed miracles. Lewis was well-known as a Christian apologist—someone who struggled to logically prove the existence of a Christian God. Of course, he could never prove the existence of God in the sense of providing hard facts to demonstrate God's existence.
