But surely there is no point in trying to account for faith: the moment it is accounted for rationally, it is no longer faith. Those whose hearts are filled with the Christian spirit... are best left to proclaim the Gospel in their own words and, above all, through the example of their own lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6186</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship, like love, is destroyed by long absence, though it may be increased by short intermissions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64928]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship, like love, is destroyed by long absence, though it may be increased by short intermissions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the talk slid north, and the talk slid south With the sliding puffs from the hookah-mouth;  Four things ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58615]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the talk slid north, and the talk slid south With the sliding puffs from the hookah-mouth;  Four things greater than all things are--   Women and Horses and Power and War.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To say we did well is an understatement.

We see more clearly than often has been the case that ecclesiology and christology are one. The ekklesia, the community of believers, has as its first and foremost qualification that it is that community which, as community, belongs to Christ and is in Christ, and as such is the sphere of God's salvation, redemption, and reconciliation, and of Christ's rulership. This is the archetypal reality of the Church. To see and seize this essential point is a great blessing. This blessing, however, could as well become a curse, if it remained a theme of theological meditation and self-contemplation. This new knowledge is not real knowledge if it is not accompanied by a horror about the alienation of the empirical Church from its own fundamental reality and by a deep longing for a tangible manifestation of the Church's true nature. This horror and this longing are the deeper motives which are operating in many of the events and passionate discussions around the place and responsibility of the laity as an organic part of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The responsible choice would be to honor those who have worn our nation's uniform, but the administration made a different ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18971]]></link><description><![CDATA[The responsible choice would be to honor those who have worn our nation's uniform, but the administration made a different choice.
