G,K. Chesterton rocks! I was first turned on to him by Christians on a Bruce Cockburn mailing list (which kinda qualifies them as being a bit Not Yer Ordinary Christians). One of them used to sign his posts with a .sig file from Chesterton, which knocked my socks off the first time I read it and does still today: "Seriousness is not a virtue." Chesterton is FUNNY. How many Christian philosophers can you say that about? The man had a level of *mirth* about him that made his deep faith in Christ and his teachings almost lovable.
