If the universe is so bad, or even half so bad, how on earth did human beings ever come to attribute it to the activity of a wise and good Creator? Men are fools, perhaps; but hardly so foolish as that. The direct inference from black to white, from evil flower to virtuous root, from senseless work to a workman infinitely wise, staggers belief. The spectacle of the universe as revealed by experience can never have been the ground of religion: it must have always been something in spite of which religion, acquired from a different source, was held.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't belive what others tell you.

He observes many different kinds of peace prevailing in the world he inhabits. Not all of them are good. For example, there is the peace that death brings, the peace of the tomb. Today it could be called the peace of Auschwitz. Hitler tried to "make peace" with the Jews by seeking their "final solution"; but the evangelical would fight rather than submit to such a peace. There is also the peace of slavery and subjection, the Pax Romana. Dictators are very fond of the Roman peace. Today it could be called the peace of Tibet. The nation of Tibet has been completely stripped of its personality in our generation by Communist China without a single protest being made in front of a single embassy. Again, there is peace that is artificially induced in men. Among individuals it is the peace of the tranquilizer, the peace of withdrawal and schizophrenia, the peace of the brain-washed prisoner. Should large-scale chemical warfare break our, we are told, whole cities could be sprayed and pacified by such drugs. The evangelical is not interested in paying such high prices for the sake of peace. He would rather stay free, and alive, and in his right mind, prepared to fight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Catherine of Siena, Mystic, Teacher, 1380  It seems to me to be the best proof of an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7711]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Catherine of Siena, Mystic, Teacher, 1380  It seems to me to be the best proof of an evangelical disposition, that persons are not angry when reproached, and have a Christian charity for those that ill deserve it.  ... The Colloquies of Erasmus    April 30, 1998  Commemoration of Pandita Mary Ramabai, Translator of the Scriptures, 1922  What keeps most men in "Christian" countries from being heretics in this sense is that they do not publicly avow their disbelief: it is in better taste to be casual about lost beliefs, and a note of wistfulness generally ensures forgiveness. Obstinacy is rare. Millions do not even know that they deny essential Christian doctrines: they have never bothered to find out what the essential doctrines are. In extenuation they may plead that the evasiveness and the multiplicity of churches create a difficulty; but to be deterred by this when one's eternal destiny is said to be at stake bespeaks a glaring lack of seriousness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the nature of every person to error, but only the fool perseveres in error. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46177]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the nature of every person to error, but only the fool perseveres in error.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to get caught up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56529]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to get caught up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are Many things that I would Like to say to you But I Don't know How. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57194]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are Many things that I would Like to say to you But I Don't know How.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They have this fantastic nugget of historical material from the Gilded Age.
