I think it might have been one of those instances where they were young kids and they have not been here before and they tensed up a little and took those 3-pointers. But, you look at that team and they are so well coached. My guys didn't mind being on defense at the end and I think they were confident and comfortable because they had been in that situation before.

Now, I do not want here to discuss whether the miraculous is possible: I only want to point out that this is a purely philosophical question. Scholars, as scholars, speak on it with no more authority than anyone else. The canon, "If miraculous, unhistorical", is one they bring to their study of the texts, not one they have learned from it. If one is speaking of authority, the united authority of all the Biblical critics in the world counts for nothing. On this they speak simply as men -- men obviously influenced by, and perhaps insufficiently critical of, the spirit of the age they grew up in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With vollies of eternal babble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58605]]></link><description><![CDATA[With vollies of eternal babble.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody, soon or late, sits down to a banquet of consequences. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody, soon or late, sits down to a banquet of consequences.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Victory goes to the player who makes the next-to-last mistake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Victory goes to the player who makes the next-to-last mistake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not worth twopence, (or I don't care twopence). ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62327]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not worth twopence, (or I don't care twopence).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The things which must be, must be for the best, God helps us do our duty and not shrink,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13061]]></link><description><![CDATA[The things which must be, must be for the best, God helps us do our duty and not shrink,  And trust His mercy humbly for the rest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is very different now.
