The suffering God is no vast cosmic force,  That by some blind, unthinking, loveless power  Keeps stars and atoms swinging in their course,  And reckons naught of men in this grim hour.  Nor is the suffering God a fair ideal  Engendered in the questioning hearts of men,  A figment of the mind to help me steel  My soul to rude realities I ken.  God suffers with a love that cleanses dross;  A God like that, I see upon a cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The issue of school choice is still alive but vouchers as a means is not a choice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33246]]></link><description><![CDATA[The issue of school choice is still alive but vouchers as a means is not a choice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The condo market in Arizona is nuts right now.

It has to be an American crisis, of course. If two countries fight that do not supply the Americans with some precious commodity, then the education of the public does not take place.

You compromise, you give, you take, you stand firm, and you're relentless...And it is an investment.
