I really enjoy your take on things. You remind me of Chesterton. You deserve to be more widely read, but most likely not many could handle you. Too much wisdom compacted into too small a space.

Thank you for your kindness, but Chesterton is too much. When I grow up I hope I can become a tropical Belloc, though. It would already be great.

And humble too!! For me, Chesterton has a way of elucidating the sublime in the mundane. I get that feeling of connectedness reading your work. I'll be interested to see where you take this.

I mentioned your stack on another asking for favorite stacks. Hopefully your readership grows. Take care.

This Calvinist has benefited greatly from your work here. I have already passed on the gist in conversation with more than one friend. Capitalism (i.e., Calvinism minus God) and socialism both end up with plutarchic oligarchies. The choice truly is Christ or chaos.
