Study the advertisements in any popular magazine: people are "invited to apply for membership"; "members will receive a catalogue"; they are even offered "rules", which they gladly accept because the need for authority lies heavily upon them; they then receive a card admitting them to the circle, with the "President's signature" printed on it. In the need for belonging, the acknowledgement of dependence, may lie the greatest opportunity of the Christian evangelist. It is not unlike the conditions under which the early Church worked. In the later Roman Empire, crumbling under its own size, its communications and resources stretched to the utmost, the mystery-religions came into their own. Rites of initiation, the sharing of secret knowledge, offered to people of all classes an escape from the perplexities of life, a retreat into a closed circle of the elect where they might feel that their transformed personalities had some significance. Who can know how many weary souls there were who strayed into the Church through rumours of a secret rite of purification, of a shared meal that conferred wisdom, and who remained to comprehend the fullness of the Godhead, a belonging greater than they had ever imagined.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Aim at the sun and you may not reach it; but your arrow will fly far higher than if you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2339]]></link><description><![CDATA[Aim at the sun and you may not reach it; but your arrow will fly far higher than if you had aimed at an object on a level with yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cynic can chill and dishearten with a single word ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10952]]></link><description><![CDATA[A cynic can chill and dishearten with a single word]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58845]]></link><description><![CDATA[Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Farewell!" For in that word--that fatal word--howe'er  We promise--hope--believe--there breathes despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19767]]></link><description><![CDATA["Farewell!" For in that word--that fatal word--howe'er  We promise--hope--believe--there breathes despair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19767</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only reason I don't like playing in the World Series is I can't watch myself play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57640]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only reason I don't like playing in the World Series is I can't watch myself play.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63545]]></link><description><![CDATA[True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I guess we took the illustrations to influential people so they could help.
