<p>Orthodoxy is <strong>G</strong>. <strong>K. Chesterton</strong>'s response to his critics' assertion that his earlier collection of essays, Heretics, had "merely criticised current philosophies without offering any alternative <em>philosophy</em>." In his intellectual journey from pagan to agnostic to positivist philosopher, he had attempted to build a <em>philosophy</em> "some ten minutes in advance of the truth." But when he compared his modern <em>philosophy</em> with Christian theology, he realized that he was "the man who with the utmost daring discovered what had been discovered before." Thus, Orthodoxy is a work of Christian apologetics, where Chesterton tries to show that Christianity is a universal answer to the everyday needs of humanity, and not just an arbitrary <em>philosophy</em> handed down from on high.Orthodoxy is <strong>G</strong>. <strong>K.
