{"product_id":"2940012580405","title":"Orthodoxy","description":"THIS book is meant to be a companion to \"Heretics,\" and to put the\u003cbr\u003e   positive side in addition to the negative. Many critics complained of\u003cbr\u003e   the book called \"Heretics\" because it merely criticised current\u003cbr\u003e   philosophies without offering any alternative philosophy. This book is\u003cbr\u003e   an attempt to answer the challenge. It is unavoidably affirmative and\u003cbr\u003e   therefore unavoidably autobiographical. The writer has been driven back\u003cbr\u003e   upon somewhat the same difficulty as that which beset Newman in writing\u003cbr\u003e   his Apologia; he has been forced to be egotistical only in order to be\u003cbr\u003e   sincere. While everything else may be different the motive in both\u003cbr\u003e   cases is the same. It is the purpose of the writer to attempt an\u003cbr\u003e   explanation, not of whether the Christian Faith can be believed, but of\u003cbr\u003e   how he personally has come to believe it. The book is therefore\u003cbr\u003e   arranged upon the positive principle of a riddle and its answer. It\u003cbr\u003e   deals first with all the writer's own solitary and sincere speculations\u003cbr\u003e   and then with all the startling style in which they were all suddenly\u003cbr\u003e   satisfied by the Christian Theology. The writer regards it as amounting\u003cbr\u003e   to a convincing creed. But if it is not that it is at least a repeated\u003cbr\u003e   and surprising coincidence. Gilbert K. Chesterton.","brand":"G.K.
