At a time when there is little federal money to spread around, Gore has championed the Administration's empowerment-zone program, which pours millions of dollars into depressed areas like inner Detroit.

Every sin is a sin of the indivisible human being, and the divine reaction against it expresses itself to conscience through the indivisible frame of that world, at once natural and spiritual, in which man lives. We cannot distribute evils into the two classes of physical and moral, and subsequently investigate the relation between them: if we could, it would be of no service here. What we have to understand is that when a man sins he does something in which his whole being participates, and that the reaction of God against his sin is a reaction in which he is conscious (or might be conscious) that the whole system of things is in arms against him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53439]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A simple rule, to be followed whether one is in the light or not, gives backbone to one's spiritual life, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6425]]></link><description><![CDATA[A simple rule, to be followed whether one is in the light or not, gives backbone to one's spiritual life, as nothing else can.  ...

And doubtless he spared no kind of people, but was indifferent to all men, as well rich as poor, to the great shame of no small number of men nowadays.
