Chesterton Calls For A New Kind Of Priesthood

Pax on both houses: Chesterton: "On Education"

The last words of Chesterton's book "Orthodoxy": "There was something that He hid from all men when He went up a mountain to pray. There was something that He covered constantly by abrupt silence or impetuous isolation. There was some one thing that was too great for God to show us when He walked upon our earth; and I have sometimes fancied that it was His mirth."

G.K. Chesterton

Chesterton's favorite overseas vacation spot was Sitges, Spain (in Catalonia), now a gay mecca. In 2015, my family and our bosom friends spent a thoroughly delightful month living in the hills above Sitges -- about 20 miles south of Barcelona --  in a centuries old farmhouse called Masia Can Pares: https://www.sitgeshillsvillas.com/property-masia-can-pares-sant-pere-de-ribes.html

The following quote is not Chesterton's - nor is it George Carlin's to whom it is often ascribed, but it partakes of Chesterton's picaresque playfulness.
