We don't despise God's name; in fact, we call upon it constantly to justify ourselves... If we object to meat-eating, we declare that God is vegetarian; if we abhor war, we proclaim a pacifist Deity. He who turned water into wine to gladden a wedding it now accused by many of favouring that abominable fluid grape juice. There can hardly be a more evil way of taking God's name in vain than this way of presuming to speak in it. For here is spiritual pride, the ultimate sin, in action -- the sin of believing in one's own righteousness. The true prophet says humbly, "To me, a sinful man, God spoke." But the scribes and Pharisees declare, "When we speak, God agrees." They feel no need of a special revelation, for they are always, in their own view, infallible. It is this self-righteousness of the pious that most breeds atheism, by inspiring all decent, ordinary men with loathing of the enormous lie.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History does not always repeat itself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64138]]></link><description><![CDATA[History does not always repeat itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only the hand that erases can write the true thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22447]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only the hand that erases can write the true thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17232]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kings are earth's gods; in vice their law's their will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kings are earth's gods; in vice their law's their will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They all attain perfection When they find joy in their work. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23440]]></link><description><![CDATA[They all attain perfection When they find joy in their work.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is difficult to live in the present, ridiculous to live in the future, and impossible to live in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17128]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is difficult to live in the present, ridiculous to live in the future, and impossible to live in the past.

The mind of our generation, having little comprehension or taste for such a message, is usually content to try to discover "the Jesus of history", conceived as a human example and teacher of a distant past. Meanwhile, there exists always alongside all forms of religious belief the great tradition of mystical experience. The mystic knows that, whatever be the truth about an historic act or person, there is a Spirit dwelling in man. In our time, even natural science abates its arrogant denials and admits the possibility of such immanence... The weak point of mysticism, as seen at least by a matter-of-fact person, is that it is apt to be so nebulous ethically. What the Immanent is, those who claim most traffic with It can often least tell us. Is It a power making for righteousness, or is It a higher synthesis of good and evil? Or is It not a moral -- that is to say, not a personal Being at all?... The raising of these questions is not intended to throw any doubt upon the validity of mystical experience as such; but we have a right to ask what content is given in the experience. Paul was a mystic, but all his mystical experience had a personal object. It was Jesus Christ, a real, living person --historic, yet not of the past alone; divine, yet not alien from humanity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A virtuous and a Christianlike conclusion-- To pray for them that have done scathe to us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6177]]></link><description><![CDATA[A virtuous and a Christianlike conclusion-- To pray for them that have done scathe to us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a very large hurricane, a very powerful hurricane.
