words, words, words

GK: 'What is the good of words if they aren't important enough to quarrel over? Why do we choose one word more than another if there isn't any difference between them? If you called a woman a chimpanzee instead of an angel, wouldn't there be a quarrel about a word? If you're not going to argue about words, what are you going to argue about? Are you going to convey your meaning to me by moving your ears? The Church and the heresies always used to fight about words, because they are the only things worth fighting about.('The Ball and the Cross 96 from 'Chesterton University').
Hilaire: GK, I know that 'many' and 'all' are completely different words. Of course the use of 'all' in the consecration of the wine takes away the free will that God gave to us, so that we could choose Him freely and love Him because He is Love.
GK: 'When you break the big laws, you do not get liberty; you do not evenget anarchy. You get the small laws.'('The Man Who Was Orthodox 119, 'Chesterton University')
Hil: It's true. Take away free will there is chaos. Everyone is saved. No one is responsible. There is only Mercy. There is no Justice, but God in His Infinite Goodness; Became Man; Died for us and lifted us beyond death and beyond earth to Heaven with Mercy and Justice.. 'Oh, happy sin!" But we must will to love God, as He willed to Die for us. God now allows us to choose His Love.
GK: 'There never was anything so perilous or so exciting as orthodoxy.' ('Orthodoxy CW 1:305)
Hil: GK, you have me so excited that I can't wait to offer up the Mass with Father Brown. Oh, the Mass that is outside of time and was to be said until the End of Time. It is always new. It is always beyond the world and the ways of man. We don't need a 'Novus Ordo'. We need the Divine Sacrifice that St Pius V preserved for us for all time. Enough of words. Let us ride the Cross to Heaven.
