He only seemed to inhabit a material body, and from the Greek word dokein ["to seem"], people who held this theory were known as Docetists. But if Christ's incarnation was unreal, His death and resurrection were also unreal; and the whole gospel message was thus evacuated of its truth and power: one unhappy legacy of this short-lived phase of Christian heresy remains to bedevil Christian witness to Muslims up to the present day. For when the Koran says of Jesus that "they did not kill Him, nor did they crucify Him, but they thought they did", we may infer that Muhammad was indebted for this idea to a Christian source tainted with Docetism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Verse sweetens toil, however rude the sound; She feels no biting pang the while she sings,  Nor as she ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Verse sweetens toil, however rude the sound; She feels no biting pang the while she sings,  Nor as she turns the giddy wheel around,   Revolves the sad vicissitudes of things.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A world community can exist only with world communication, which means something more than extensive shortwave facilities scattered about the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9075]]></link><description><![CDATA[A world community can exist only with world communication, which means something more than extensive shortwave facilities scattered about the globe.

It is the most humanitarian of all known bodies of laws before recent times. The laws about slavery, which envisage the liberation of Hebrew slaves after seven years, are a good example. But there are also laws protecting the poor: interest (always high in the ancient East) was prohibited, and again there was a moratorium after a term of years... Even strangers, who normally had very little protection in antiquity, except when they were citizens of a strong neighbouring state which might step in and protect them by force of arms, are exceptionally well cared for by Mosaic law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This matter has already become a national issue that concerns the whole of Iranian society and I can assure you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35729]]></link><description><![CDATA[This matter has already become a national issue that concerns the whole of Iranian society and I can assure you that no Iranian government will make a compromise on this issue,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's hard to lose like this because we kind of felt like we let one slip away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37567]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's hard to lose like this because we kind of felt like we let one slip away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old Lady of Threadneedle Street. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old Lady of Threadneedle Street.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization is a progress from an indefinite, incoherent homogeneity toward a definite, coherent heterogeneity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14360]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization is a progress from an indefinite, incoherent homogeneity toward a definite, coherent heterogeneity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I find it interesting that the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God's will, but as human beings ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26310]]></link><description><![CDATA[I find it interesting that the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God's will, but as human beings become more affluent, as their living standard and style begin to ascend the material scale, God descends the scale of responsibility]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16810]]></link><description><![CDATA[To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any other station or capacity in social life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Meditation brings wisdom; lack of mediation leaves ignorance.
