This dual sin dishonors God and ultimately destroys the soul of man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is almost a contradiction in terms: it means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is almost a contradiction in terms: it means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're doing a lot of different stuff.

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[People are so busy dreaming the American Dream, fantasizing about what they could be or have a right to be, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53363]]></link><description><![CDATA[People are so busy dreaming the American Dream, fantasizing about what they could be or have a right to be, that they're all asleep at the switch.

The American standard of living has risen to unprecedented heights, although a large portion of the world exists on a sub-human level. Philanthropy, as we practice it, is not enough --- although the word philanthropy actually means brotherhood. Our stewardship of God's goods requires that we administer in God's name -- that is, with full awareness that the world is His and that His love is directed toward us no more fully than toward every man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6557</guid></item></channel></rss>
