Re: Those are good quotes ...
Chesterton was a big time novelist/poet/biographer/journalist in his day. (I'm still waiting for my day.) He was what they now refer to as a 'Christian apologist'. In other words, he had the balls and intellect to defend his Catholic beliefs in a time when everyone would kneel to Nietzsche and the like. Gilbert Keith Chesterton's book "The Everlasting Man," which, by the way, had nothing to do with sex, was supposedly responsible for C. S. Lewis converting to Catholicism after being a long-time atheist. G. K. often publicly debated is good friend George Bernard Shaw (he was a masterdebater), and his Dickens biography is considered to be the best by many.

Those are good quotes ...
However, who's G.K. Chesterton?
Was he the guy who played the father on "Diff'rent Strokes"?
If there's ever an amusement park called Bag World,
I bet it would really start to annoy you after a while
how they really sort of stretch the definition of "bag."
