Since it happened only once, it is by Hume's standards infinitely improbable. But then, the whole history of the Earth has also happened only once: is it therefore incredible? Hence the difficulty, which weighs upon Christian and atheist alike, of estimating the probability of the Incarnation. It is like asking whether the existence of nature herself is intrinsically probable. That is why it is easier to argue, on historical grounds, that the Incarnation actually occurred than to show, on philosophical grounds, the probability of its occurrence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou hast wounded the spirit that loved thee And cherish'd thine image for years;  Thou hast taught me at ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62366]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou hast wounded the spirit that loved thee And cherish'd thine image for years;  Thou hast taught me at last to forget thee,   In secret, in silence, and tears.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more deeply the path is etched, the more it is used, and the more it is used, the more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52207]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more deeply the path is etched, the more it is used, and the more it is used, the more deeply it etched.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cal/OSHA does not have enough field inspectors to meet its day-to-day responsibilities, let alone effectively investigate complaints at a huge ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42175]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cal/OSHA does not have enough field inspectors to meet its day-to-day responsibilities, let alone effectively investigate complaints at a huge project like the Bay Bridge retrofit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1798]]></link><description><![CDATA[Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a big box with gauges and buttons and a lot of air hoses, ...
