"Heretics" is a collection of 20 essays written by G. K. Chesterton and published in 1905. In these essays, Chesterton engages in extensive arguments against prominent intellectuals of his time, including atheist Joseph McCabe, George Bernard Shaw, Friedrich Nietzsche, H. G. Wells, and Rudyard Kipling. He covers a wide range of topics, from cosmology to anthropology to soteriology. Chesterton criticizes French nihilism, German humanism, English utilitarianism, and the arrogance of the European intelligentsia. The book is considered central to Chesterton's moral theology, along with his other work, "Orthodoxy." The chapters in "Heretics" include discussions on the importance of orthodoxy, the negative spirit, the influence of Rudyard Kipling, George Bernard Shaw, H. G. Wells, and more. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in Christian apologetics.
