For instance, although there are some 200,000 "errors" among the New Testament manuscripts, these appear in only about 10,000 places, and only about one-sixtieth rise above the level of trivialities. Westcott and Hort, Ezra Abbot, Philip Schaff, and A. T. Robertson have carefully evaluated the evidence and have concluded that the New Testament text is over 99 percent pure. In the light of the fact that there are over 5,000 Greek manuscripts, some 9,000 versions and translations, the evidence for the integrity of the New Testament is beyond question.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No poet will ever take the written word as a substitute for the spoken word; he knows that it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40479]]></link><description><![CDATA[No poet will ever take the written word as a substitute for the spoken word; he knows that it is on the spoken word, and the spoken word only, that his art is founded.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58741]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many a man fails as an original thinker simply because his memory it too good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63613]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many a man fails as an original thinker simply because his memory it too good.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is the leadership of the world-wide church in the hands of men and women who know how to lead others ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7028]]></link><description><![CDATA[Is the leadership of the world-wide church in the hands of men and women who know how to lead others one by one to Jesus Christ?

The gates have been opened to evil in part because of a terrible discrepancy between human ideals and actual possibilities -- terrible heresies concerning the nature of man and the structure of the historical universe. Christianity, even if it cannot persuade men to rise to the contemplation of the spiritual things, embodies principles which may at least have the effect of bringing the dreamers down to earth. Because it confronts the problem of human sin, it can face our difficulties and dilemmas without evasions -- without the fundamental evasiveness of those who believe that all would be well with the world if it were not for a few unspeakable criminals, always conveniently identified with the political enemy of the moment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6630</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know anything about music.
