I completely agree with Chesterton never sounding bitter at all.
he calls people out continuously but does so in such a whimsical way that you laugh before your offended.
there was a great rendition of Orthodoxy that was put out with a more youth type base and I found it was easier to read that version. ( I cannot find the book online, but if I do I will post it) Orthodoxy is amazing but if you have a hard time reading through that, Everlasting Man will be a nightmare!
Either way, I love Chesterton (as you can see by my signature) and in many ways I feel his spirit when reading Lewis. Although, I will agree Lewis was definitely more of the logician.
