Ideology may well be defined as religion-substitute. The fact that religious faith expresses itself in the particular ideological forms current in any given period is no reason why we should confuse religion with ideology; and, even though it requires a penetrating and candid investigation to distinguish between the genuinely religious and the merely ideological elements in the outlook of a particular period or individual, this does not mean that religion itself is an aspect of ideology. The core of religious belief is not ideological, whatever may be said of the soft pulp in which it is wrapped up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45784]]></link><description><![CDATA[I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Etiquette tip: More people will get out of your way if you say "I'm gonna puke!" than if you say ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Etiquette tip: More people will get out of your way if you say "I'm gonna puke!" than if you say "Excuse me".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had no reports which described him as a stud, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37091]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had no reports which described him as a stud,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[More will mean worse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41916]]></link><description><![CDATA[More will mean worse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was done with everything but the project when I was about 14 years old.

That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then - to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn." Ropo Oguntimehin Education is a companion which no future can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate it and no nepotism can enslave. -T.H.
