This is not a specially religious mistake. We think of supernaturalism when faith is mentioned, but the naturalistic description of the world also operates on assumptions that require a faith as robust as does the most soaring mysticism. The usual efforts to skirt faith beg all the questions there are. A psychiatrist, for instance, who points out to you that you believe in God the Father because you need a father, or that you became a missionary to expiate your guilt feelings, may be quite correct, but he has not touched on the prior question as to whether there is, in fact, a cosmic father figure who is the archetype of all other fathers, or whether there is an evangel worth spending your life promulgating.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Credulity is the common failing of inexperienced virtue; and he who is spontaneously suspicious may justly be charged with radical ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10615]]></link><description><![CDATA[Credulity is the common failing of inexperienced virtue; and he who is spontaneously suspicious may justly be charged with radical corruption]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lunatics have taken charge of the asylum.   - Richard Rowland, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10050]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lunatics have taken charge of the asylum.   - Richard Rowland,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To pluck the vicious quitch Of blood and custom wholly out of him,  And make all clean and plant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51721]]></link><description><![CDATA[To pluck the vicious quitch Of blood and custom wholly out of him,  And make all clean and plant himself afresh.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A collection of anecdotes and maxims is the greatest of treasures for the man of the world, for he knows ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2509]]></link><description><![CDATA[A collection of anecdotes and maxims is the greatest of treasures for the man of the world, for he knows how to intersperse conversation with the former in fit places, and to recollect the latter on proper occasions]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An infallible method of conciliating a tiger is to allow oneself to be devoured. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40228]]></link><description><![CDATA[An infallible method of conciliating a tiger is to allow oneself to be devoured.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Champagne Wishes and Caviar Dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Champagne Wishes and Caviar Dreams.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dew-drops are the gems of morning, But the tears of mournful eve! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dew-drops are the gems of morning, But the tears of mournful eve!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nonconformists travel as a rule in bunches.
