When I was a child, bishops expressed doubts about the Resurrection, and were called courageous. When I was a girl, G. K. Chesterton professed belief in the Resurrection, and was called whimsical. When I was at college, thoughtful people expressed belief in the Resurrection "in a spiritual sense", and were called advanced; (any other kind of belief was called obsolete, and its professors were held to be simpleminded). When I was middle-aged, a number of lay persons, including some poets and writers of popular fiction, put forward rational arguments for the Resurrection, and were called courageous. Today, any lay apologist for Christianity... whose works are sold and read, is liable to be abused in no uncertain terms as a mountebank, a reactionary, a tool of the Inquisition, a spiritual snob, an intellectual bully, an escapist, an obstructionist, a psychopathic introvert, an insensitive extrovert, and an enemy of society. The charges are not always mutually compatible, but the common animus behind them is unmistakable, and its name is fear. Writers who attack these domineering Christians are called courageous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who stand for nothing fall for anything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64490]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The shortest follies are the best. [Fr., Les plus courtes folies sont les meilleures.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16331]]></link><description><![CDATA[The shortest follies are the best. [Fr., Les plus courtes folies sont les meilleures.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16331</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only in our dreams are we free.
