He only seemed to inhabit a material body, and from the Greek word dokein ["to seem"], people who held this theory were known as Docetists. But if Christ's incarnation was unreal, His death and resurrection were also unreal; and the whole gospel message was thus evacuated of its truth and power: one unhappy legacy of this short-lived phase of Christian heresy remains to bedevil Christian witness to Muslims up to the present day. For when the Koran says of Jesus that "they did not kill Him, nor did they crucify Him, but they thought they did", we may infer that Muhammad was indebted for this idea to a Christian source tainted with Docetism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is an hour wherein a man might be happy all his life, could he find it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49951]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is an hour wherein a man might be happy all his life, could he find it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15582]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tyranny and anarchy are never far asunder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59988]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tyranny and anarchy are never far asunder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's impossible to move, to live, to operate at any level without leaving traces, bits, seemingly meaningless fragments of personal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9421]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's impossible to move, to live, to operate at any level without leaving traces, bits, seemingly meaningless fragments of personal information.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If dirt was trumps, what hands you would hold! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8857]]></link><description><![CDATA[If dirt was trumps, what hands you would hold!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8857</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27441]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy next to me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let them stew in their own grease (or juice).   - Karl Otto von Schonhausen Bismarck, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52553]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let them stew in their own grease (or juice).   - Karl Otto von Schonhausen Bismarck,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You've got to play with your head and your heart.
