Again and again in the Pentateuch, the psalms, the prophets, and the subsequent writings which derive from them, the claim is made that the creator of the entire universe has chosen to live uniquely on a small ridge called Mount Zion, near the eastern edge of the Judean hill-country. The sheer absurdity of this claim, from the standpoint of any other worldview (not least that of Enlightenment philosophy), is staggering. The fact that Assyria, Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Egypt again, Syria and now Rome had made explicit mockery of the idea did not shake this conviction, but only intensified it. This was what Jewish monotheism looked like on the ground.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16443]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["And a bird-cage, sir," said Sam.

To me, at least, this is a thoroughly unsound argument, for Christ did not come into the world to bring men "specialized activity," but life, fuller and more satisfying than it had been ever before. If the churches have made Christianity appear to be some kind of specialized spiritual performance so much the worse for them. The real purpose of Christ, the real relevance of the Gospel, is surely to enable men to live together as sons of God. Human beings, like children, love to have secrets, love to be "in the know." But the Christian religion was never meant to be a secret recipe for living, held by a few. It is Good News for all mankind and, because it is that, the more clearly and intelligibly it can be presented, the more faithfully it is following its Master's purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I listened, motionless and still; And, as I mounted up the hill, The music in my heart I bore, Long ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43515]]></link><description><![CDATA[I listened, motionless and still; And, as I mounted up the hill, The music in my heart I bore, Long after it was heard no more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[First Law of Socio-Genetics: Celibacy is not hereditary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17289]]></link><description><![CDATA[First Law of Socio-Genetics: Celibacy is not hereditary.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Among these treasures of our land is water--fast becoming our most valuable, most prized, most critical resource.
