We modern pagans have to choose between that divine order, and the grey, dead, irresponsible, chaotic universe of atheism. And the tragedy is that we may make that choice without knowing it -- not by clear conviction but by vague drifting, by losing interest in Him. A nominal deist will say: "Yes, of course there must be some sort of Force that created the galaxy. But it's childish to imagine that It has any personal relation to me!" In that belief atheism exists as an undiagnosed disease. The man who says, "One God," and does not care, is an atheist in his heart. The man who speaks of God and will not recognize him in the burning bush -- that man is an atheist, though he speak with the tongues of men or angels, and appear in his pew every Sunday, and make large contributions to the church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12395]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12395</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It cometh into court and pleads the cause Of creatures dumb and unknown to the laws;  And this shall ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4119]]></link><description><![CDATA[It cometh into court and pleads the cause Of creatures dumb and unknown to the laws;  And this shall make, in every Christian clime,   The bell of Atri famous for all time.   - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As the younger generation, we've been raised to think that everything is OK and if you look down on anyone ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30027]]></link><description><![CDATA[As the younger generation, we've been raised to think that everything is OK and if you look down on anyone else, you judge anyone else, then you're a racist or you're a religious zealot, or you're not open-minded.
