And truly there is no one to blame for this but themselves.

Christ hath excommunicated no nation, no shire, no house, no man; He gives none of His ministers leave to say to any man, thou art not redeemed; He gives no wounded or afflicted conscience leave to say to itself, I am not redeemed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absence blots people out.
