This is part of the responsibility we accord our licensed jesters, that nothing be excused the searching light of comedy. If anything can survive the probe of humour it is clearly of value, and conversely all groups who claim immunity from laughter are claiming special privileges which should not be granted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They have to be unselfish.

His insistence on taking seriously the gropings of all men for the truth about their lives must be allowed to remind the ecumenical movement that the word oikoumene is Greek not for "the Church" but for "the whole inhabited world". The ecumenical movement is more than Christian patriarchs kissing. Christian unity means the unity of mankind in finding and obeying God. Tillich can teach us that the Church must not shut its door to celebrate a family reunion while a single child of God remains outside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The commonest objection to birth control is that it is against nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4278]]></link><description><![CDATA[The commonest objection to birth control is that it is against nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As to posterity, I may ask (with somebody whom I have forgot) what has it ever done to oblige me? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47842]]></link><description><![CDATA[As to posterity, I may ask (with somebody whom I have forgot) what has it ever done to oblige me?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lover knows much more about absolute good and universal beauty than any logician or theologian, unless the latter, too, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12534]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lover knows much more about absolute good and universal beauty than any logician or theologian, unless the latter, too, be lovers in disguise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a real comfortable fit for me.

The Colloquies of Erasmus    April 30, 1998  Commemoration of Pandita Mary Ramabai, Translator of the Scriptures, 1922  What keeps most men in "Christian" countries from being heretics in this sense is that they do not publicly avow their disbelief: it is in better taste to be casual about lost beliefs, and a note of wistfulness generally ensures forgiveness. Obstinacy is rare. Millions do not even know that they deny essential Christian doctrines: they have never bothered to find out what the essential doctrines are. In extenuation they may plead that the evasiveness and the multiplicity of churches create a difficulty; but to be deterred by this when one's eternal destiny is said to be at stake bespeaks a glaring lack of seriousness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Religion is one dimension of culture, a transcendent element of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34985]]></link><description><![CDATA[Religion is one dimension of culture, a transcendent element of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The hushed winds wail with feeble moan Like infant charity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61629]]></link><description><![CDATA[The hushed winds wail with feeble moan Like infant charity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody ever invented a polite word for a killing yet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23715]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody ever invented a polite word for a killing yet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Financial sense is knowing that certain men will promise to do certain things, and fail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15697]]></link><description><![CDATA[Financial sense is knowing that certain men will promise to do certain things, and fail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leave her to Heaven, And to those thorns that in her bosom lodge,  To prick and sting her. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51254]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leave her to Heaven, And to those thorns that in her bosom lodge,  To prick and sting her.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The child of misery, baptized in tears! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42763]]></link><description><![CDATA[The child of misery, baptized in tears!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42763</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65039]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65039</guid></item></channel></rss>
