He must therefore plunge himself into the life of a godless world, without attempting to gloss over its ungodliness with a veneer of religion or trying to transfigure it.

To be a Christian does not mean to be religious in a particular way, to cultivate some particular form of asceticism (as a sinner, a penitent, or a saint), but to be a man. It is not some religious act which makes a Christian what he is, but participation in the suffering of God in the life of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I used to think there was light at the end of the tunnel, but for me today the light is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/591]]></link><description><![CDATA[I used to think there was light at the end of the tunnel, but for me today the light is on a locomotive headed right for me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is like water; We can fall in it.
