And, in that case, we ought frankly to affirm that, though the New Testament is an amazing witness to the religious creativity of the human spirit, its actual message is more wrong than right, more misleading than helpful; and we must reconstruct our gospel accordingly. Only a weak, muddled, or cowardly mind will hesitate to do this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43719]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our species is the only creative species, and it has only one creative instrument, the individual mind and spirit of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our species is the only creative species, and it has only one creative instrument, the individual mind and spirit of a man. Nothing was ever created by two men. There are no good collaborations, whether in music, in art, in poetry, in mathematics, in philosophy. Once the miracle of creation has taken place, the group can build and extend it, but the group never invents anything. The preciousness lies in the lonely mind of a man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most men dislike a teaching which lays upon them strict moral requirements that check their natural desires.

Yet they like to be considered as Christians, and listen willingly to the hypocrites who preach that our righteousness is only that God holds us to be righteous, even if we are bad people, and that our righteousness is without us and not in us, for, according to such teaching, they can be counted as holy people. Woe to those who preach that men of sinful walk can not be considered pious; most are furious when they hear this, as we see and experience, and would like all such preachers to be driven away or even killed; but where that cannot be done, they strengthen their hypocrite preachers with praise, comfort, presents and protection, so that they may go on happily and give no place to the truth, however clear it may be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will respond in kind to all those who took part in the aggression on Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine.
