So he automatically writes off any Biblical account of a wondrous happening which suggests that there is an order of reality transcending the observable regularities of nature and occasionally breaking in upon them. Nor is rational skepticism content with jettisoning the Bible's miracle stories. It also dismisses other passages on the grounds that they reflect the ignorance and prejudice of a particular age, or the propaganda interests of the Church at a particular stage of its development. Its basic rule of Biblical interpretation is: "When in doubt, throw it out." And the highest scores in the game of radical reductionism are awarded to pedagogues who find the most novel and far-fetched reasons for doubting that any part of the Bible really means what it says.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man must not swallow more beliefs than he can digest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53501]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man must not swallow more beliefs than he can digest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1013]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are what we believe we are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53745]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are what we believe we are.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Old-Testament doctrine of salvation gives us no encouragement, on strictly hermeneutical grounds, to argue from what was true politically ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6719]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Old-Testament doctrine of salvation gives us no encouragement, on strictly hermeneutical grounds, to argue from what was true politically of Israel to what could or should be true of any modern political state. Even if we were first to grant the presence of a "Christendom" situation [where] Church and State would be virtually coextensive, the nation of Israel would still remain unique. The focus of salvation is on the historical action of God in forming a people for Himself, and there is no indication anywhere in the Bible that God promises political salvation even inside the context of the full salvation of His people, let alone outside it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Spontaneity is only a term for man's ignorance of the gods ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57426]]></link><description><![CDATA[Spontaneity is only a term for man's ignorance of the gods]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An' I thowt 'twur the will o' the Lord, but Miss Annie she said it wur draains, For she hedn't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56245]]></link><description><![CDATA[An' I thowt 'twur the will o' the Lord, but Miss Annie she said it wur draains, For she hedn't naw coomfut in 'er, an' arn'd naw thanks fur 'er paains.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63205]]></link><description><![CDATA[The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45752]]></link><description><![CDATA[Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Over the brink of it Picture it--think of it,  Dissolute man.   Lave in it--drink of it  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19954]]></link><description><![CDATA[Over the brink of it Picture it--think of it,  Dissolute man.   Lave in it--drink of it    Then, if you can.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The inertia of the human mind and its resistance to innovation are most clearly demonstrated not, as one might expect, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52021]]></link><description><![CDATA[The inertia of the human mind and its resistance to innovation are most clearly demonstrated not, as one might expect, by the ignorant mass- which is easily swayed once its imagination is caught- but by professionals with a vested interest in tradition and in the monopoly of learning. Innovation is a twofold threat to academic mediocrities: it endangers their oracular authority, and it evokes the deeper fear that their whole, laboriously constructed intellectual edifice might collapse. The academic backwoodsmen have been the curse of genius from Aristarchus to Darwin and Freud; they stretch, a solid and hostile phalanx of pedantic mediocrities, across the centuries.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is full of people whose notion of a satisfactory future is, in fact, a return to the idealized ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65482]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world is full of people whose notion of a satisfactory future is, in fact, a return to the idealized past.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The building of a perfect body crowned by a perfect brain, is at once the greatest earthly problem and grandest ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18943]]></link><description><![CDATA[The building of a perfect body crowned by a perfect brain, is at once the greatest earthly problem and grandest hope of the race.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18943</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65277]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weren't able despite all efforts to reach solutions that would satisfy everyone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36211]]></link><description><![CDATA[We weren't able despite all efforts to reach solutions that would satisfy everyone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He will be the last to discover the disgrace of his house. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50452]]></link><description><![CDATA[He will be the last to discover the disgrace of his house.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50452</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jake did a good job for us on the mound and really did a good job keeping their offense shutdown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38211]]></link><description><![CDATA[Jake did a good job for us on the mound and really did a good job keeping their offense shutdown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who count their chickens before they are hatched, act very wisely, because chickens run about so absurdly that it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46030]]></link><description><![CDATA[People who count their chickens before they are hatched, act very wisely, because chickens run about so absurdly that it is impossible to count them accurately]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man can do what he ought to do; and when he says he cannot, it is because he will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61593]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man can do what he ought to do; and when he says he cannot, it is because he will not. [Ger., Der Mensch kann was er soll; und wenn er sagt er kann nicht, so will er nicht.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I watched the replay five times and it wasn't a foul.
