Sounds good. I am ordering the book (I should have it by next week). However, I have downloaded an e-version to get a little jump start to the reading. If anyone is interested I found a great program and website to download books. If you are like me you like to highlight and write notes in the margin's of books. If you do this program is great:
http://www.ereader.com/ereader/softwa...
The basic software is free and works really well. Kindle could learn from it.
Now download the book here:

Select a title, on the right download it in EReader form and open it in ereader. You can highlight, write notes about a section, and do some other things.
p.s. I love Chesterton's ficiton. "The Ball and the Cross" and "The Man Who Was Thursday" are awesome books.
I'd be up for this too. I just ordered some stuff from Amazon, but I was planning on ordering somethinge else. I'm sure I can get a used copy cheap for both. I have Orthodoxy in mp3 format (free from Christianaudio.com) on my Zune ready to be listened to as well. So Heretics first sounds great to me. I'll try to put in an order for it on Amazon ASAP.-Ted.
I use a variety of ways,tools and resources for my (quiet time, Bible study, devotional). However, primarily and consistently I have been going through a book called "On Living Simply" that is various readings of sermons by John Chrysostom. It has made me think a lot and drove me to the scriptures to find references to the subjects he touches upon. Good stuff.I've been doing an indepth inductive study of Colossians (it seems forever) and I just started a personal systematic study on the subject of the Perspecuity of Scripture.
This is my first stab at Eco's work. I picked this book particularly because of my unheatlhy fascination with a little tv show called LOST (see my other group). :) Good story so far. I have seen the movie "Name of the Rose" but not read the book. I liked the movie. I'm not a full MDiv student, but a M.A. major in the Divnity School. M.A. in English Bible (essentially focused on Bible understanding and teaching-I'm taking it online).
Thank you everyone for the warm welcome and comments.
Mostly Church history as I'm taking a Church History course through seminary. Main book is Roger Olsens "The Story of Christian Theology." On the fiction side I'm working my way through Umberto Echo's "The Island of the Day Before." Those are the two of 5 or 6 off the top of my head. :)
Hi,I'm not a practicing Anglican, but I was Baptised in the Episcopal church as a child. I'm more of the non-denominational type. However, I appreciate the Anglican faith for what it brings to Protestantism and to the body of Christ. So am I cool to be iin this group?
