How do we distinguish real Truth from human notions and ideas and opinions and doctrines? We are compelled to say that the word "true" means "grounded in reality, based on the real nature of things, on the basic facts which underlie the universe." Hence, if people say -- as many have said -- that the moral ideals set out in the gospels are high and noble ideals, and express admiration for the moral character of Jesus, and stop there, not daring to affirm more than that, the answer they are giving to the Question, "Is the Gospel true?", is No.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6659</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, Teacher, 373  Human and human-minded as men were, therefore, to whichever side ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8189]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, Teacher, 373  Human and human-minded as men were, therefore, to whichever side they looked in the sensible world, they found themselves taught the truth. Were they awe-stricken by creation? They beheld it confessing Christ as Lord. Did their minds tend to regard men as gods? The uniqueness of the Savior's works marked Him, alone of men, as Son of God. Were they drawn to evil spirits? They saw them driven out by the Lord, and learned that the Word of God alone was God and that the evil spirits were not gods at all. Were they inclined to hero-worship and the cult of the dead? Then the fact that the Savior had risen from the dead showed them how false these other deities were, and that the Word of the Father is the one true Lord, the Lord even of death. For this reason was He both born and manifested as Man, for this He died and rose, in order that, eclipsing by His works all other human deeds, He might recall man from all the paths of error to know the Father. As He says Himself, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So when Andy called, I asked him if he would mind waiting, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39310]]></link><description><![CDATA[So when Andy called, I asked him if he would mind waiting,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16696]]></link><description><![CDATA[A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With various people complaining about "price gouging... economist Walter Williams has coined a new term: "Tax gouging."

Enacting it doesn’t give them power. Enacting it gives them lives that are satisfying and meaningful to them. This is what you’ll find if you go among them. They’re not seething with discontent and rebellion, not incessantly wrangling over what should be allowed and what forbidden, not forever accusing each other of not living the right way, not living in terror of each other not going crazy because their lives seem empty and pointless, not having to stupefy themselves with drugs to get through the days, not having a new religion every week to give them something to hold on to, not forever searching for something to do or something to believe in that will make lives worth living. And – I repeat – this is not because they live close to nature or have no formal government or because they’re innately noble. This is simply because they’re enacting a story that works well for people – a story that worked well for three million years and that still works well where the Takers haven’t yet managed to stamp it out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's good tying the sack before it be full. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49577]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's good tying the sack before it be full.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is one thing to photograph people.
