michael-lagoy replied to your post: Nonsense from G.K. Chesterton

It’s based on the argument that god is the only truth, and that those who reject truth will accept any lie. Thus if one doesn’t accept god, he can easily be misled. Because, you know, we don’t base our beliefs and knowledge on evidence or anything…

Thank you for the clarification.  I knew what Chesterton meant.  I simply wanted to provoke the person who posted it—someone who I have some history with.  I knew that Chesterton was saying exactly what you clarified and I know that the person who posted it shares Chesterton’s views.  That’s exactly why I have an issue.
