Does anyone today remember how the emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion? It is said that he had a vision -- saw a cross in the sky with the inscription, "In this sign shalt thou conquer." He accepted the new faith promptly, because he thought it would defeat his enemies for him. That is man's Christianity, a means to earthly triumph. And in our present crisis we are appealing to it to defeat the Russians for us. We hear of the life-and-death struggle between Christianity and Communism, the necessity of "keeping God alive as a social force" -- as if our Lord could not survive a Soviet victory! It is a poor sort of faith that imagines Christ defeated by anything men can do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Space isn't remote at all.

Wolf! and when his neighbors came to help him, laughed at them for their pains. The Wolf, however, did truly come at last. The Shepherd-boy, now really alarmed, shouted in an agony of terror: Pray, do come and help me; the Wolf is killing the sheep; but no one paid any heed to his cries, nor rendered any assistance. The Wolf, having no cause of fear, at his leisure lacerated or destroyed the whole flock. There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People generally quarrel because they can't argue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52705]]></link><description><![CDATA[People generally quarrel because they can't argue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You should treat all disasters as if they were trivialities but never treat a triviality as if it were a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12381]]></link><description><![CDATA[You should treat all disasters as if they were trivialities but never treat a triviality as if it were a disaster]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Chinese authorities indicated that they want to ratify the covenant as early as possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41094]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Chinese authorities indicated that they want to ratify the covenant as early as possible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. -The Merchant of Venice.
