The ecumenical movement is more than Christian patriarchs kissing. Christian unity means the unity of mankind in finding and obeying God. Tillich can teach us that the Church must not shut its door to celebrate a family reunion while a single child of God remains outside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Endearing Waltz--to thy more melting tune Bow Irish jig, and ancient rigadoon.  Scotch reels, avaunt! and country-dance forego  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11026]]></link><description><![CDATA[Endearing Waltz--to thy more melting tune Bow Irish jig, and ancient rigadoon.  Scotch reels, avaunt! and country-dance forego   Your future claims to each fantastic toe!    Waltz--Waltz alone--both legs and arms demands,     Liberal of feet, and lavish of her hands.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet, so far from laboring to know the forbidden tree of worldly pleasures and its various fruits, man gives himself ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38324]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet, so far from laboring to know the forbidden tree of worldly pleasures and its various fruits, man gives himself up to a careless and thoughtless state of life, and yields to the lust of the flesh, not considering that this lust is really the forbidden tree.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thy wish was father, Harry, to that thought. -King Henry IV.
