What is it? Come to the next meeting on Wednesday at 7 p.m., November 18th at Schlegel's and find out! As usual we'll be talking about everything and, eventually, Distributism. The discussion will not be too deep, because I'm just learning about Distributism. I'll have a copy of Chesterton's The Outline of Sanity, and Belloc's The Servile State available for review. These two books were recommended to me by the President of the Society for Distributism. I'll also have my laptop and we'll take advantage of Schlegel's Wi-Fi so we can check out the sites providing information on Distributism.
Here's something else we might discuss. It's a quote from Chesterton.
Here's something else we might discuss. It's a quote from Chesterton.
"The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking; he can ruin himself with gambling. If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog." - Broadcast talk 6-11-35Hmm! Was my recent vote against casinos consistent with Chestertonian thinking? Based on the above quote, I guess it wasn't.
