Are they Christian literature? Is the author Christian? Do the characters in the book believe in Christianity, or an allegorical presentation thereof? Do they promote Christian morals or doctrines?
If the answer to any of these questions is "no", then I don't care. I am sick and tired of reading about boring generic fantasy "gods", or fantasy inspired by Greek, or Egyptian, or Indian, or whatever mythology, or overtly atheistical fantasy literature, or even worse: anti-Christian fantasy. At this point, the most creative and thoughtful /sffg/ comes from Christians (e.g. Stephen Lawhead), or at least people who have an honest understanding of Christians (e.g. Wayne Barlowe).

is part of the plot, I don't find any of that disagreeable. I don't adhere to market fundamentalism and much of my worldview is informed by the Church, I'm not sure how you'd personally categorize Chesterton but I'd like to read more of your thoughts.

What does /lit/ think of Chesterton?

>getting blown out this hard by Chesterton

You do realize that wasn't an argument, right? How many questions can you beg in one post, I wonder.

G.K. Chesterton is absolutely based

Why is is that GK Chesterton is such a wonderful author, theologian, poet, commentator and philosopher but the way I was introduced to him was not through school or library or mentioned in conversation or discourse, but though his work being used in a video game?

To be frank, I think he's one of the best authors ever to come out of Britain.
