I do not pretend to understand the ways of God any more than the next man; but it is surely more fitting as well as more sensible for us to study what God does do and what He does not do as He works in and through the complex fabric of this disintegrated world, than to postulate what we think God ought to do and then feel demoralized and bitterly disappointed because He fails to fulfil what we expect of Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without libraries what have we?
