They, too, stress the leap of faith and make irrationality almost a principle, dismissing the serious questions of seeking modern men as intellectual smoke-screens or diversions to conceal deeper personal problems. All this masks a desperate intellectual insecurity, barely disguised by the surrounding hedge of taboos to preserve purity. The strident intolerance of much guilt-driven evangelism betrays the same insecurity. In these circles, much that is taught has to be unlearned in the wider school of life, and it is not surprising that universities are littered with dropouts from such groups. Their non-rational, subjective faith is cruelly punctured by varsity-level questions, and many manage to survive only by resorting to a severely schizophrenic faith which they hold to be true religiously but not intellectually, historically, or scientifically.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inter-group contact and positive relationships across the generations seem to be an important mechanism for combating ageist stereotypes, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33711]]></link><description><![CDATA[Inter-group contact and positive relationships across the generations seem to be an important mechanism for combating ageist stereotypes,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studded wheelchair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42972]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studded wheelchair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a negatively developing story.

The prophets, for all their passionate sincerity, for all their courageous simplifyings of the Gospel, will meet many deaf adders who stop their ears. We must reckon with this certain fact, and refuse to be daunted by it. But also there comes a point where accommodation can go no further. It is the Gospel we have to present, however we do it. We cannot hope to do it unless we walk humbly with the modern man, as well as with God, unless we are much more eager to learn from him and about him, than to instruct him. God help us, it is all very difficult. But was there ever a task better worth trying to do, or one in which, whether we fail or succeed, we more surely find our freedom?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17862]]></link><description><![CDATA[Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the skeptic there remains only one consolation: if there should be such a thing as superhuman law it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13611]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the skeptic there remains only one consolation: if there should be such a thing as superhuman law it is administered with subhuman inefficiency.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is the sin which is not Sin in itself?
