All religions attempt to bridge the gulf between the terrific purity of God and the sinfulness of man, but Christianity believes that God built that bridge Himself. This particular Friday commemorates His deliberate action in allowing Himself to be caught up in the sin-suffering-death mechanism which haunts mankind. He didn't let it end there, for He went on, right through death. But the men who believe in Him can't forget the kind of Person such an act reveals. That's why they call it Good Friday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7422</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you ever have to support a flagging conversation, introduce the topic of eating. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27920]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you ever have to support a flagging conversation, introduce the topic of eating.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27920</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Houghton was the last 'independent' educational publisher left.
