Its nice to know someone still getting use out of that book. I find it fascinating that chesterton's writing led in large part to lewis' Mere Christianity, which has, in its own right, led to the current bottle neck (at least in my opinion) of christian apologists. Chesterton and Lewis both had a gift for doing such things and making them feel light. Chesterton would participate in public debates with his detractors, but I doubt that those involved would consider it a debate when comparing it to our standards. They would offer explanations, while we have the tendency to try to make the other party look like an idiot. Even our basic arguing is different. Generally, when I argue with someone I take the stance that I am right and you are wrong, but when contemplating the wonders of our glorious Savior, the attitude I want to have is : Here is truth, and I may start to attempt to explain why it is truth, but in essence, I can barely even grasp it myself. And as far as telling you why you are wrong, it is difficult to go far beyond saying that what you are saying is incorrect because it is not the truth. If this sounds tautological, it probably is, but that doesn't mean its wrong.
