It is here ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7479]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continued from yesterday:  The result of all this is that the Christian is a free man. It is here to be observed that the term "freedom" is ambiguous in common usage. It is sometimes used to imply that a man can do just as he likes, undetermined by any external force. To this the determinist replies that as a matter of fact this freedom is so limited by the laws which condition man's empirical existence as to be illusory. The rejoinder from the advocates of free will is that no external force can determine a man's moral conduct (and with mere automatism we are not concerned), unless it is presented in consciousness, and that in being so presented it becomes a desire, a temptation, or a motive. In suffering himself to be determined by these, the man is not submitting to external control, but to something which he has already made a part of himself, for good or ill. When, however, we have said that, we are faced with a further problem. Not all that is desired is desirable, and in being moved by my immediate desire I may be balking myself of that ultimate satisfaction which is the real object of all effort. If that is so, then to "do as I like" may well be no freedom at all. There is a law of our being which forbids satisfaction to be found along that line, as it is written, "He gave them their desire, and sent leanness into their souls." (Ps. 106:15) (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[... one who never hurts anyone's feelings unintentionally. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17365]]></link><description><![CDATA[... one who never hurts anyone's feelings unintentionally.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conservatism is the blind and fear-filled worship of dead radicals ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9856]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conservatism is the blind and fear-filled worship of dead radicals]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I play my best, I can win anywhere in the world against anybody. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21899]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I play my best, I can win anywhere in the world against anybody.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you did wed my sister for her wealth, Then for her wealth's sake use her with more kindness:  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45247]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you did wed my sister for her wealth, Then for her wealth's sake use her with more kindness:  Or if you like elsewhere, do it by stealth;   Muffle your false love with some show of blindness:    Let not my sister read it in your eye;     Be not thy tongue thy own shame's orator;      Look sweet, spear fair, become disloyalty;       Apparel vice like virtue's harbinger;        Bear a fair presence, though your heart be tainted;         Teach sin the carriage of a holy saint;          Be secret-false: what need she be acquainted?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Speculation has picked up in Western Canada, while housing markets in Central Canada appear to be coming in for a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32203]]></link><description><![CDATA[Speculation has picked up in Western Canada, while housing markets in Central Canada appear to be coming in for a soft landing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since we are centrally located and easy to find, we'd thought we'd be a good drop-off point.
