For the system of those who, in order to rid themselves of difficulties, do not hesitate to concede that divine inspiration regards the things of faith and morals, and nothing beyond, because (as they wrongly think) in a question of the truth or falsehood of a passage, we should consider not so much what God has said as the reason and purpose which He had in mind in saying it--this system cannot be tolerated. For all the books which the Church receives as sacred and canonical, are written wholly and entirely, with all their parts, at the dictation of the Holy Ghost: and so far is it from being possible that any error can co-exist with inspiration, that inspiration not only is essentially incompatible with error, but excludes and rejects it as absolutely and necessarily as it is impossible that God Himself, the supreme Truth, can utter that which is not true.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mahomet made the people believe that he would call a hill to him, and from the top of it offer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14957]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mahomet made the people believe that he would call a hill to him, and from the top of it offer up his prayers for the observers of his law.

This bondage becomes most painfully apparent in our lives when we earnestly feel the need of changing but cannot; when we are attracted to another value that for one reason or another conflicts with the desires of our true god --that value nearest and dearest to us. But our true god lies so deeply inside us that often we are not even consciously aware of its presence or of what it actually is.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am leaning toward business courses, when I am in college full time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28401]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am leaning toward business courses, when I am in college full time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Again men have been kept back as by a kind of enchantment from progress in science by reverence for antiquity, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52387]]></link><description><![CDATA[Again men have been kept back as by a kind of enchantment from progress in science by reverence for antiquity, by the authority of men counted great in philosophy, and then by general consent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business is a means- the only means- to increase the quantity of goods available for preserving life and rendering it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15716]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business is a means- the only means- to increase the quantity of goods available for preserving life and rendering it more agreeable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let me tell you something that we Israelis have against Moses.
