We see that many articulate secularists are well-meaning and law-abiding men; we see them go into righteous indignation over injustice and often devote their lives to good works. So we conclude that "he can't be wrong whose life is in the right" -- that their philosophies are just as good guides to action as Christianity. What we don't see is that they are not acting on their philosophies. They are acting, out of habit or sentiment, on an inherited Christian ethic which they still take for granted though they have rejected the creed from which it sprang. Their children will inherit some what less of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Over the past 15 years or so, ... there has been a shift of some academics who view McCarthy as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Over the past 15 years or so, ... there has been a shift of some academics who view McCarthy as crude but his cause correct that communists needed to be weeded out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Greeks invented logic but were not fooled by it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56885]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Greeks invented logic but were not fooled by it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And Doubt and Discord step 'twixt thine and thee. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12557]]></link><description><![CDATA[And Doubt and Discord step 'twixt thine and thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I try to push and pull my Hispanic people into the community.

There is a Pagan, savage heart in me somewhere. For unfortunately the folly and idiot-cunning of Paganism seem to have far more power of surviving than its innocent or even beautiful elements. It is easy, once you have power, to silence the pipes, still the dances, disfigure the statues, and forget the stories; but not easy to kill the savage, the greedy, frightened creature now cringing, now blustering in one's soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We pulled it out.
