His insistence on taking seriously the gropings of all men for the truth about their lives must be allowed to remind the ecumenical movement that the word oikoumene is Greek not for "the Church" but for "the whole inhabited world". 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[When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62781]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every time we try to move a piece of furniture, it just falls apart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31418]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every time we try to move a piece of furniture, it just falls apart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is pride?

For here we are dealing with processes and events which, by the nature of the case, cannot be precisely described in everyday language...  The matter is quite different with such a statement as that Christ was born of the Virgin Mary; for, whatever aspects of the Incarnation outstrip the descriptive power of ordinary language, this at least is plainly statable in it. It means that Jesus was conceived in his mother's womb without previous sexual intercourse on her part with any male human being, and this is a straightforward statement which is either true or false. To say that the birth... of Jesus Christ cannot simply be thought of as a biological event, and to add that this is [not] what the Virgin Birth means, is a plain misuse of language; and no amount of talk about the appealing character of the "Christmas myth" can validly gloss this over.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peer-to-peer technology has benefits, but it also carries many dangers, the most egregious of which is the potential for widespread ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42489]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peer-to-peer technology has benefits, but it also carries many dangers, the most egregious of which is the potential for widespread and unauthorized piracy.
