This is not a specially religious mistake. We think of supernaturalism when faith is mentioned, but the naturalistic description of the world also operates on assumptions that require a faith as robust as does the most soaring mysticism. The usual efforts to skirt faith beg all the questions there are. A psychiatrist, for instance, who points out to you that you believe in God the Father because you need a father, or that you became a missionary to expiate your guilt feelings, may be quite correct, but he has not touched on the prior question as to whether there is, in fact, a cosmic father figure who is the archetype of all other fathers, or whether there is an evangel worth spending your life promulgating.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And many an ante-natal tomb When butterflies dream of the life to come. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5153]]></link><description><![CDATA[And many an ante-natal tomb When butterflies dream of the life to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should concentrate our work not only to a separated housing problem but housing involved in our daily work and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29006]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should concentrate our work not only to a separated housing problem but housing involved in our daily work and all the other functions of the city.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your Highness, we are at a critical juncture in our nation's history.

But I loved them better and better -- and still I knew how little was my love for them compared to Christ's. It is easy enough for a man to be honest and a "Good Christian" and keeper of "the moral law", when he has his own little room, his purse well filled -- when he is well shod and well fed. It is far less easy for a man who has to live from day to day, roaming from city to city, from factory to factory. It is far less easy for someone just out of jail, with nothing to wear but old down-at-the-heels shoes and a shirt in rags. All of a sudden, I understood our Lord's words: "I was in prison ... and you visited me not." All these men, lazy, outside the law, starving: these failures of all kinds -- they were dear to Christ -- they were Christ, waiting in prison for someone to lean over Him -- and if we were true Christians, we would do them every kindness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd like to sit down with this guy and ask him why he did it.
