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)

"It Makes Me Wonder"

What follows are a set of photos taken of one cloud changing over the course of just a few short minutes, catching the light of the setting sun. Fascinating procession tonight. We just stand out and "ooh" and "ahhh" at the parade of changing colors.

Makes me think of those lines in "Stairway to Heaven":

"In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
It makes me wonder."
