And, in that case, we ought frankly to affirm that, though the New Testament is an amazing witness to the religious creativity of the human spirit, its actual message is more wrong than right, more misleading than helpful; and we must reconstruct our gospel accordingly. Only a weak, muddled, or cowardly mind will hesitate to do this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They've done this all on their own.

Education ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series on education:   What are the gifts of biblical faith to the secular university? Education can receive from the Bible a faith concerning man far more realistic than the naive faith by which education has tried to live. Not man as "pure reason": his reason is not pure. Not man as incipient angel: he can turn any structure... to good or to demonic purpose. Not man with his steps on the highroad called evolution: he is relatively free and, therefore, can and does wreck any evolution unless some Grace constantly renews his onward journey. Not man who by his science is sure to fashion a "brave new world"; by science he can destroy the world. Not man as centrally and characteristically a reasonable creature who needs only that his mind shall be educated to build a reasonable world. Not man regarded in any naive faith, but man as potentially divine and potentially unworthy, who stands always in need of help from beyond the confines of the natural order. If education confronts this faith, education will know that the mind's adventure also, like all things human, stands in need of redemption; and it can then proceed with lowliness, and thus with the power and light which are the reward of the lowly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45104]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8424]]></link><description><![CDATA[Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The better part of valour is discretion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12457]]></link><description><![CDATA[The better part of valour is discretion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That is the definition of faith -- acceptance of that which we imagine to be true, that which we cannot ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48410]]></link><description><![CDATA[That is the definition of faith -- acceptance of that which we imagine to be true, that which we cannot prove.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All I know is what I read in the papers ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44479]]></link><description><![CDATA[All I know is what I read in the papers]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you start to think about your physical or moral condition, you usually find that you are sick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20461]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you start to think about your physical or moral condition, you usually find that you are sick.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20461</guid></item></channel></rss>
