Genesis itself presents the movement from Haran to Canaan as an individual, unique act undertaken in response to a divine call -- an event, not an incident -- that inaugurates a new and decisive stage in God's plan of history. The factuality or otherwise of this Biblical evaluation lies beyond the scope of scholarly research.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when called upon to act in accordance with the dictates ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58863]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Purity of mind and idleness are incompatible ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Purity of mind and idleness are incompatible]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage.
