In a subtle way, talking about something becomes an excuse for not doing it. This new bolt-hole of the conference and study group is not confined to the local congregation. It is a painful fact of life in the central structures of the churches. We have a welter of reports, commissions, surveys, liaison bodies, and so on. They have the appearance of progressive thinking and readiness to face change, combined with the function of being delaying devices. They are the sacraments of current Christianity, and its dilemma. Outreach is a move from power structures to meekness structures, and, in spite of the fact that Christians believe that it is the meek who shall inherit the earth, they show (as in the ecumenical movement) a distinct reluctance to relinquish power-structure thinking.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To love one's self is the beginning of a life-long romance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9618]]></link><description><![CDATA[To love one's self is the beginning of a life-long romance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Victory has a hundred fathers, but defeat is an orphan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60575]]></link><description><![CDATA[Victory has a hundred fathers, but defeat is an orphan.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never had ill workeman good tooles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49642]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never had ill workeman good tooles.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20269]]></link><description><![CDATA[An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Watch your thoughts, for they become words.Watch your words, for they become actions.Watch your actions, for they become habits.Watch your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/450]]></link><description><![CDATA[Watch your thoughts, for they become words.Watch your words, for they become actions.Watch your actions, for they become habits.Watch your habits, for they become character.Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Harriet Monsell of Clewer, Religious, 1883   There is a certain kind of so-called conversion which separates ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7566]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Harriet Monsell of Clewer, Religious, 1883   There is a certain kind of so-called conversion which separates a man from his fellow men. It may fill him with a self-righteousness which rejoices in its own superiority to those who have had no like experience. It may move a man to a Pharisaic self-isolation. There have in fact been not a few so-called conversions as a result of which a man has left the Church to belong to some smaller and holier body. The plain truth is that such a one should very seriously examine himself, if he finds what he regards as his Christian experience separating him from his fellow-men, or his fellow-Christians.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All the technology of our production was still pre-War.
