What distinguishes the handling of these values in the churches is mainly the heavier dosage of religious vocabulary involved... Another way of putting this is to say that the churches operate with secular values while the secular institutions are permeated with religious terminology... An objective observer is hard put to tell the difference (at least in terms of values affirmed) between the church members and those who maintain an 'unchurched' status. Usually the most that can be said is that the church members hold the same values as everybody else, but with more emphatic solemnity. Thus, church membership in no way means adherence to a set of values at variance with those of the general society; rather, it means a stronger and more explicitly religious affirmation of the same values held by the community at large.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's essentially the entire refining capacity of Canada.

Instead of asking yourself whether you believe or not, ask yourself whether you have, this day, done one thing because He said, Do it! or once abstained because He said, Do not do it! It is simply absurd to say you believe, or even want to believe, in Him, if you do not do anything He tells you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is far more impressive when others discover your good qualities without your help ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42919]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is far more impressive when others discover your good qualities without your help]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38404]]></link><description><![CDATA[Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He doesn't want to do it where he's asked questions about this by opponents, ...
