Chesterton, contra the evolutionists, first points to the singular nature of man from his very beginnings; and, later, contra the comparative religionists, points to the uniqueness of Christianity in relation to all other paths. Two of those paths, the way of myth (seeking God through the imagination), and the way of philosophy (seeking God through the intellect), were at war until Christ restored the world’s sanity in the union of Story and Truth.
