Take the "obvious things" about Christ as listed by a contemporary minister:  He was a popular and controversial preacher; He gathered a group of followers; He spent most of his time with the disinherited; He taught with authority; He never married; He never (so far as we know) held a job; He did not participate in public affairs; He did not have income, property, or an address; He was in bitter and frequent conflict with the religious and political authorities; He seemed to expect that the world would be eminently, radically, and supernaturally transformed; He attacked the traditions and values of his own people; He practically forced the authorities to prosecute and execute him. There is nothing exclusively religious, much less Christian, in this description, which, with a few exceptions, might apply also to Socrates or to "Che" Guevara. I asked many socially oriented ministers why they were Christians at all. Some said through faith, and some said that Christianity gave them courage and the motivation to endure (but so do other beliefs). Some said they hardly knew and that, if another, more acceptable, ideology came along, they would embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a paradox in pride: it makes some men ridiculous, but prevents others from becoming so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48214]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a paradox in pride: it makes some men ridiculous, but prevents others from becoming so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And on the balmy zephyrs tranquil rest The silver clouds.   - John Keats, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62665]]></link><description><![CDATA[And on the balmy zephyrs tranquil rest The silver clouds.   - John Keats,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And however are Dennises take offence, A double meaning shows double sense;  And if proverbs tell truth,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23232]]></link><description><![CDATA[And however are Dennises take offence, A double meaning shows double sense;  And if proverbs tell truth,   A double tooth    Is wisdom's adopted dwelling.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O God, thy sea is so great, and my boat is so small ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4408]]></link><description><![CDATA[O God, thy sea is so great, and my boat is so small]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lower your voice and strengthen your argument. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3067]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lower your voice and strengthen your argument.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do not know of any environmental group in any country that does not view its government as an adversary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13996]]></link><description><![CDATA[I do not know of any environmental group in any country that does not view its government as an adversary.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24669]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12786]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mind still longs for what it has missed, and loses itself in the contemplation of the past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50835]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mind still longs for what it has missed, and loses itself in the contemplation of the past.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've forced the other team to hit to beat us.
