belloc-chesterton

i believe belloc-chesterton once stated it was not that christianity
had been tried and failed, but that it had never been tried (quoted by an
rc primate of england in my time). the question arises : why did "he"
not put it into practice, instead of "just" saying it? this makes me wonder
at "my" opportunity the 5th april coming: i'm driving it as well i can to
a world(-changing) event. "everyone" thinks me foolish.....
