Our argument does not claim that evidences are so clear that faith is not needed. We do intend to imply, however, that the choice of a set of assumptions is a moral choice. Adherence to an epistemology is not something which merely "happens to" a person, but instead it reflects a component of his moral development. In some sense he is, in my judgment, morally responsible for adopting an epistemology even though it can be neither proved nor disproved to the satisfaction of those who oppose it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Spake full well, in language quaint and olden, One who dwelleth by the castled Rhine,  When he call'd the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10993]]></link><description><![CDATA[Spake full well, in language quaint and olden, One who dwelleth by the castled Rhine,  When he call'd the flowers, so blue and golden,   Stars that on earth's firmament do shine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10993</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's an opportunity to answer any additional questions that are out there.
