What is exactly insulting Orwell’s opinion or my own?
 To whom is it insulting? Chesterton has been dead many for a long time.
Why is it insulting? People has been denouncing religion and the church
for a long time now, nothing new there, like Robert Burns said:
Proud Priests and Bishops we'll translate
And canonise as Martyrs;
If not with swards than with words. If you find Orwell’s opinion (or mine)
insulting to YOU than that, sir, is your problem.
