Four Last Things: Heaven

Okay it’s not November anymore, but we’re still committed to our four-part series on what November usually provokes: our reflection on the four last things of death, judgment, heaven, and hell. Join FAD&DAD in this mini-series as we discuss our way through them. In part three, we reflect on what all mankind was made for: a new heavens and a new earth. And yes, it took three seasons for FAD to realize we had a Facebook account. Welcome to the media world of FAD&DAD, FAD.

Virtues Gone Mad

We all know what happens when vices are let loose, but what about the virtues? Join FAD&DAD in an exploration of the provoking mind of GK Chesterton. Here is the full quote from GK Chesterton’s Orthodoxy (Ch. 3): The modern world is not evil; in some ways the modern world is far too good. It is full of wild and wasted virtues. When a religious scheme is shattered (as Christianity was shattered at the Reformation), it is not merely the vices that are let loose. The vices are, indeed, let loose, and they wander and do damage. But the virtues are let loose also; and the virtues wander more wildly, and the virtues do more terrible damage. The modern world is full of the old Christian virtues gone mad. The virtues have gone mad because they have been isolated from each other and are wandering alone. Thus some scientists care for truth; and their truth is pitiless. Thus some humanitarians only care for pity; and their pity (I am sorry to say) is often untruthful. This is a public episode.
