To imagine, then, at the end of this life we shall cease to exist as conscious beings, that our characters, our personalities, will fall back into some boundless being, instead of becoming more and more definite, more and more individual, is certainly not to exalt God; for it is founded on the belief, either that God is now belittled by our present individuality, or that our present individuality is a mere delusion. In the latter case God, whom we find in the depths of our souls, is doubtless also a delusion, for if the self is not real it is no respectable witness on whose testimony we can accept God. Our deepest mature conviction is that finite and infinity interpenetrate, as time and eternity interpenetrate, and our problems must be solved in the light of that conviction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60962]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Teaching brings out innate powers, and proper training braces the intellect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Teaching brings out innate powers, and proper training braces the intellect.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We [must not] underestimate the enormity of the claim [made by the Jews].

Again and again in the Pentateuch, the psalms, the prophets, and the subsequent writings which derive from them, the claim is made that the creator of the entire universe has chosen to live uniquely on a small ridge called Mount Zion, near the eastern edge of the Judean hill-country. The sheer absurdity of this claim, from the standpoint of any other worldview (not least that of Enlightenment philosophy), is staggering. The fact that Assyria, Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Egypt again, Syria and now Rome had made explicit mockery of the idea did not shake this conviction, but only intensified it. This was what Jewish monotheism looked like on the ground.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cases like this hopefully will clarify what copyright is all about.

Someone may say, "Yes, but He knew that He was going to rise from the dead." But have we not the same promise for ourselves?
