G.K. Chesterton on How Materialism Puts People in a Bind
"When
materialism leads men to complete fatalism (as it generally does), it
is quite idle to pretend that it is in any sense a liberating force. It
is absurd to say you are especially advancing freedom when you use free
thought to destroy free will. . . . You may use the language of liberty,
if you like, about materialistic teaching, but it is obvious that this
is just as inapplicable to it as a whole as the same language when
applied to a man locked up in a madhouse." G.K. Chesterton #MemorialDay
