Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evaluate what you want - because what gets measured, gets produced. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14243]]></link><description><![CDATA[Evaluate what you want - because what gets measured, gets produced.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is to be remarked that a good many people are born curiously unfitted for the fate waiting them on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13113]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is to be remarked that a good many people are born curiously unfitted for the fate waiting them on this earth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just when you think that a person is just a backdrop for the rest of the universe, watch them and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17214]]></link><description><![CDATA[Just when you think that a person is just a backdrop for the rest of the universe, watch them and see that they laugh, they cry, they tell jokes ... they're just friends waiting to be made.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In 1998-99, enterprise software companies were actually harmed by shift to Internet computing because they didn't have products to offer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30312]]></link><description><![CDATA[In 1998-99, enterprise software companies were actually harmed by shift to Internet computing because they didn't have products to offer in that category.

Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning! Praise for them, springing fresh from the Word! Sweet the new rain's fall sunlit from heaven, Like the first dewfall on the first grass. Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, Spring in completeness where His feet pass. Mine is the sunlight! Mine is the morning Born of the one light Eden saw play! Praise with elation, praise every morning, God's re-creation of the new day!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7525]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles and visions, or suggested, by means of the ministry of men, what should be handed down by tradition to their posterity, it is beyond a doubt that their minds were impressed with a firm assurance of the doctrine, so that they were persuaded and convinced that the information they had received came from God... But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house.-. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11377]]></link><description><![CDATA[May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house.-.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[UPS now flies to more points in China than any other US airline, freight or passenger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32891]]></link><description><![CDATA[UPS now flies to more points in China than any other US airline, freight or passenger.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth?

Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain idea that every man is bound to be a critic of life, and to let no day pass without finding some fault with the general order of things, or projecting some plan for its general improvement. And the other half comes from the greedy notion that a man's life does consist, after all, in the abundance of things that he possesseth, and that it is, somehow or other, more respectable and pious to be always at work trying to make a larger living, than it is to lie on your back in the green pastures and beside the still waters, and thank God that you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hurry it up you Hoosier bastard!
