Only G.K. Chesterton in writing a book on St. Thomas Aquinas would think of
drawing parallels between St. Aquinas, St. Dominic and St. Francis of
Assisis.
It is an old story that, while we may need somebody like
Dominic
to convert the heathen to Christianity, we are in even
greater
need of somebody like Francis, to convert the Christians to
Christianity.
