Some followers of the Rev. R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannnot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philosopher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or he must deny the present union between God and Man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Order is never observed; it is disorder that attracts attention because it is awkward and intrusive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12554]]></link><description><![CDATA[Order is never observed; it is disorder that attracts attention because it is awkward and intrusive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At least one way of measuring the freedom of any society is the amount of comedy that is permitted, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47407]]></link><description><![CDATA[At least one way of measuring the freedom of any society is the amount of comedy that is permitted, and clearly a healthy society permits more satirical comment than a repressive, so that if comedy is to function in some way as a safety release then it must obviously deal with these taboo areas. This is part of the responsibility we accord our licensed jesters, that nothing be excused the searching light of comedy. If anything can survive the probe of humour it is clearly of value, and conversely all groups who claim immunity from laughter are claiming special privileges which should not be granted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...
