Finished Reading “Heretics”

  "G. K. Chesterton, the "Prince of Paradox," is at his witty best in this collection of twenty essays and articles from the turn of the twentieth century. Focusing on  "heretics" - those who pride themselves on their superiority to Christian views - Chesterton appraises prominent figures who fall into that category from the literary and art worlds... those who hold incomplete and inadequate views about "life, the universe, and everything." He is, in short, criticizing all that host of non-Christian views of reality, as he demonstrated in his follow-up book Orthodoxy. The book is both an easy read and a difficult read. But he manages to demonstrate, among other things, that our new 21st century heresies are really not new because he himself deals with most of them." (Goodreads)

30 Uses For A Tin Can: Day 10 "Cup"

Once upon a time, a young youth leader whose name rhymes with "Derek" forgot many essential camping supplies . . . like cups
and plates
and utensils
and pots and pans . . .
Oh, we had plenty of food . . .
Just no way to cook with
or eat . . .
or start a fire, which got started anyway thanks to a cigarette lighter and some pine straw . . .

Guess you had to be there.
Folks do get thirsty.
