In defense of Chesterton

John Zmirak is amazing.  In an article defending Chesterton against an Episcopalian who basically calls GKC shallow, Zmirak writes the following:
Those of us who love the Faith in its incarnate form, Christendom, see the pre-history of the Church not just in Israel but also in Greece and Rome. We teach the works and ways of our forefathers in Reason as lovingly as we do those of our Jewish ancestors in Faith. Together, they form a picture of the embryonic Church that we treasure like the first ultrasound of one's firstborn baby.

What a profound and beautiful image.  Read the whole article, it's worth it.
