Listening to Chesterton's Book "Orthodoxy" on IPOD, it was interesting to hear some of his remarks on Calvinism.

Chesterton — Lawrence Salberg Chesterton’s Un-charitable Presentation of Calvin at Per Caritatem Quotable G.K. Chesterton Weekend « Miscellanies Which is why I find "Protestants" who toss out Chesterton quotes so amazingly inconsistent, like this one:"The Catholic Church is like a thick steak, a glass of red wine, and a good cigar."
Really? Well, if so, then the steak will give you Mad Cow, the glass of wine contains just a few drops of cyanide, and the cigar is laced with radioactive materials. When we have brilliant, godly, Scripturally sound men like Edwards, or Spurgeon, or Warfield to read, who never once profaned the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ with words and beliefs like those expressed above by O'Brien, and whose insights to this day are compelling and convicting, why do we play games with quotes like Chesterton's? Play with a loaded gun long enough, and it may well go off.
