Since it happened only once, it is by Hume's standards infinitely improbable. But then, the whole history of the Earth has also happened only once: is it therefore incredible? Hence the difficulty, which weighs upon Christian and atheist alike, of estimating the probability of the Incarnation. It is like asking whether the existence of nature herself is intrinsically probable. That is why it is easier to argue, on historical grounds, that the Incarnation actually occurred than to show, on philosophical grounds, the probability of its occurrence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the world to which the Apostles preached their new message, religion had not been the solace of the weary, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7649]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the world to which the Apostles preached their new message, religion had not been the solace of the weary, the medicine of the sick, the strength of the sin-laden, the enlightenment of the ignorant: It was the privilege of the healthy and the instructed. The sick and the ignorant were excluded. They were under the bondage of evil demons. "This people which knoweth not the law are accursed", was the common doctrine of Jews and Greeks. The philosophers addressed themselves only to the well-to-do, the intellectual, and the pure. To the mysteries were invited only those who had clean hands and sound understanding. It was a constant marvel to the heathen that the Christians called the sick and the sinful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then wander forth the sons Of Belial, flown with insolence and wine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50658]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then wander forth the sons Of Belial, flown with insolence and wine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52391]]></link><description><![CDATA[We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He managed to hit all the keys on the great American political piano. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23694]]></link><description><![CDATA[He managed to hit all the keys on the great American political piano.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I should have no objection to a repetition of the same life from its beginning, only asking the advantages authors ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46407]]></link><description><![CDATA[I should have no objection to a repetition of the same life from its beginning, only asking the advantages authors have in a second edition to correct some faults of the first.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26954]]></link><description><![CDATA[God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin.
