For actual behaviour infallibly betrays the real object of the man's worship. All Christians, whatever their Church, would of course instantly repudiate the idea that their god was a super-example of their own denomination, and it is not suggested that the worship is conscious. Nevertheless, beneath the conscious critical level of the mind it is perfectly possible for the Anglo-Catholic, for example, to conceive God as particularly pleased with Anglo-Catholicism, doubtful about Evangelicalism, and frankly displeased by all forms of Nonconformity... The ultra-low Churchman on the other hand must admit, if he is honest, that the God whom he worships disapproves most strongly of vestments, incense, and candles on the altar. The tragedy of these examples -- which could be reproduced ad nauseam any day of the week -- is not difference of opinion, which will probably be with us till the Day of Judgment, but the outrageous folly and damnable sin of trying to regard God as the Party Leader of a particular point of view.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7964</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The violets were past their prime, Yet their departing breath  Was sweeter, in the blast of death,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60716]]></link><description><![CDATA[The violets were past their prime, Yet their departing breath  Was sweeter, in the blast of death,   Than all the lavish fragrance of the time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The picture that approaches sculpture nearest Is the best picture. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45425]]></link><description><![CDATA[The picture that approaches sculpture nearest Is the best picture.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God, and Parents, and our Master, can never be requited. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49278]]></link><description><![CDATA[God, and Parents, and our Master, can never be requited.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brazen helm of daffodillies, With a glitter toward the light.  Purple violets for the mouth,   Breathing perfumes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16247]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brazen helm of daffodillies, With a glitter toward the light.  Purple violets for the mouth,   Breathing perfumes west and south;    And a sword of flashing lilies,     Holden ready for the fight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In other circumstances it would not be a very big deal, but I would say the Election Commission was too ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35928]]></link><description><![CDATA[In other circumstances it would not be a very big deal, but I would say the Election Commission was too complacent about explaining the changes to the people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I find the pain of a little censure, even when it is unfounded, is more acute than the pleasure of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5429]]></link><description><![CDATA[I find the pain of a little censure, even when it is unfounded, is more acute than the pleasure of much praise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't park in the spaces marked, "Reserved for Umpires.". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57473]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't park in the spaces marked, "Reserved for Umpires.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The midge's wing beats to and fro A thousand times ere one can utter "O." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27448]]></link><description><![CDATA[The midge's wing beats to and fro A thousand times ere one can utter "O."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27448</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And pines with thirst amidst a sea of waves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61293]]></link><description><![CDATA[And pines with thirst amidst a sea of waves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61293</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children and teens are surrounded by unhealthy options. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30850]]></link><description><![CDATA[Children and teens are surrounded by unhealthy options.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one remains modest, not after praise but after blame, then is he really so. [Ger., Wenn jemand bescheiden bleibt, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42912]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one remains modest, not after praise but after blame, then is he really so. [Ger., Wenn jemand bescheiden bleibt, nicht beim Lobe, sondern beim Tadel, dann ist er's.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42912</guid></item></channel></rss>
