Logic is designed to give inevitably true results starting from known true -- or assumed-to-be-true -- premises. Logic is a wonderful tool when we want only logical conclusions. We should not reject such a machine merely because it is not equipped to handle all of reality. The scientist who commits himself to use a logic machine is doing wisely, qua scientist, for use on data of science. But if he feeds into that machine convictions that there is not God, or ignores God because He is not in his corpus of data, and then draws from his logic the conclusion that God does not exist, his conclusion is irrelevant. Logic is a tool; it should not be made into a religion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But that old man, who is lord of the broad estate and the hall, Dropped off gorged from a scheme ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51692]]></link><description><![CDATA[But that old man, who is lord of the broad estate and the hall, Dropped off gorged from a scheme which left us flaccid and drained.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one should drive a hard bargain with an artist. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3362]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one should drive a hard bargain with an artist.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are ready to talk, but it is just an exploratory conversation, since Brazil isn't negotiating with the United Kingdom. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31255]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are ready to talk, but it is just an exploratory conversation, since Brazil isn't negotiating with the United Kingdom.
