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[Custom will reconcile people to any atrocity; and fashion will drive them to acquire any custom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15350]]></link><description><![CDATA[Custom will reconcile people to any atrocity; and fashion will drive them to acquire any custom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At school I was pretty sociable, but I did like to come home and be on my own and make ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33684]]></link><description><![CDATA[At school I was pretty sociable, but I did like to come home and be on my own and make music and write my dreams down.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A human being is not attaining his full heights until he is educated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63044]]></link><description><![CDATA[A human being is not attaining his full heights until he is educated.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Satan the envious said with a sigh: Christians know more about their hell than I. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6872]]></link><description><![CDATA[Satan the envious said with a sigh: Christians know more about their hell than I.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A sword laid by, Which eats into itself, and rusts ingloriously. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48718]]></link><description><![CDATA[A sword laid by, Which eats into itself, and rusts ingloriously.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important job is not to be governor, or first lady in my case. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23287]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most important job is not to be governor, or first lady in my case.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The primary sign of a well-ordered mind is a man's ability to remain in one place and linger in his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52199]]></link><description><![CDATA[The primary sign of a well-ordered mind is a man's ability to remain in one place and linger in his own company.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever our creed, we feel that no good deed can by any possibility go unrewarded, no evil deed unpunished. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever our creed, we feel that no good deed can by any possibility go unrewarded, no evil deed unpunished.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a dishonest creep wants to tap dance, give them the spotlight and a mirror. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12538]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a dishonest creep wants to tap dance, give them the spotlight and a mirror.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You've got to create a dream.
