Synopsis "Heretics"

Constantly in today's world, the Church has had to deal with a growing threat to its stability, that of rebellion against the very word of God in such a strong force that saying anything about the Bible in public forums brings a mass of abuse from the public. Chesterton recognized that this was happening back in his day and tried to address going concerns. The issues he raised nearly a century ago still ring true today and are as applicable now as they were back when this work was originally published.
