Saint Gilbert?

Blegging for info:

Is there an active canonization cause for G. K. Chesterton? I don't know of one, but I can't say for sure that there isn't one.

If he were canonized, what would be the Gospel for his feastday?

I think there is a movement in that direction - the guy who does the GKC shows on EWTN may know. Some have proposed him as a patron for the involuntarily childless, also for apologetics writers.
His writing was among the clinchers to me that the Church was right in Humanae Vitae.

D'oh! Dale Ahlquist! I'll email the American Chesterton Society now. Thanks!

And I've emailed the pastor of the church in whose graveyard Mr. and Mrs. Chesterton are buried.

How about this for the Gospel reading?


After this [Jesus] went out, and saw a tax collector, named Levi, sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he left everything, and rose and followed him.

And Levi made him a great feast in his house; and there was a large company of tax collectors and others sitting at table with them. And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?" And Jesus answered them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

And they said to him, "The disciples of John fast often and offer prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink." And Jesus said to them, "Can you make wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them? The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in those days." (Lk 5:27-35)

Metaphysics is the finding of bad reasons for what we believe upon instinct, but to find these reasons is no less an instinct.
