Therefore, almost by definition, a religious man, or a man when he is being religious, is not thinking about religion; he hasn't the time. Religion is what we (or he himself at a later moment) call his activity from outside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It gets to seem as if way back in the Garden of Eden after the Fall, Adam and Eve had ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33603]]></link><description><![CDATA[It gets to seem as if way back in the Garden of Eden after the Fall, Adam and Eve had begged the Lord to forgive them and He, in his boundless exasperation, had said, ''All right, then.
