No creature as wild as one of his commentators …

Even in my grouchy state, I can’t help but laugh at this G.K. Chesterton quote from a recent sermon my pastor did on Revelation:

“Though Saint John the Evangelist saw many strange monsters in his vision, he saw no creature so wild as one of his commentators.”

(Can you tell I’m cleaning through piles of notes from the past few weeks?)
