The Web Site and Blog of Pastor Chris Brauns
G. K. Chesterton (1874–1936), “Introduction to the Book of Job”:
The modern habit of saying “Every man has a different philosophy; this is my philosophy and it suits me”—the habit of saying this is mere weak-mindedness. A cosmic philosophy is not constructed to fit a man; a cosmic philosophy is constructed to fit a cosmos. A man can no more possess a private religion than he can possess a private sun and moon.

Excellent from G. K. Thanks!
When trying to begin a discussion on faith years ago, the person said to me, “My religion is personal.” My response was “Good! Your religion should be personal, but does that mean it’s private?” Hum.
