The New Testament [again, and notoriously, in the person of St Paul] assumes that there will be places other than the bedroom in which men and women assume consciously differentiated roles. They will do so in the affairs of the home, in which the wife is to "submit" to her husband (Eph. 5:22ff) as head. They will do so even outside the context of family life, since man is "head" of woman in some sense; in quite another context, when the Church is at worship (I Cor. 11:2ff). In order that St Paul should not be misjudged, we must note--(a) that this relational ordering of male and female presupposes a fundamental generic equality (I Cor. 11:1 ff); and (b) that the "submission" of the wife is a special case of a "submission" of all Christians to one another, and complements a husband's love that is to be expressed in self-sacrifice (Eph. 5:2lff, 25ff). The apostle is not an apologist for male tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23949]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief she is beautiful. •Sophia Loren  Nothing's beautiful from every point ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3855]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief she is beautiful. •Sophia Loren  Nothing's beautiful from every point of view. •Horace   Beauty is the first present nature gives to women and the first it takes away. •George Brossin Méré   ...It's a sort of bloom on a woman.

What distinguishes the handling of these values in the churches is mainly the heavier dosage of religious vocabulary involved... Another way of putting this is to say that the churches operate with secular values while the secular institutions are permeated with religious terminology... An objective observer is hard put to tell the difference (at least in terms of values affirmed) between the church members and those who maintain an 'unchurched' status. Usually the most that can be said is that the church members hold the same values as everybody else, but with more emphatic solemnity. Thus, church membership in no way means adherence to a set of values at variance with those of the general society; rather, it means a stronger and more explicitly religious affirmation of the same values held by the community at large.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are the children of a technological age.
