We must do it together -- or be cast aside together, and God in his absolute freedom goes on by other means to use His Church in hastening His Kingdom.  ...Howard Hewlett Clark    January 31, 1998  Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  The axioms of reason are non-demonstrable assumptions. Why should faith not be granted the same privilege? The denial of the truths of faith is, in the last analysis, no less a faith than faith itself, for it rests on personal assumptions which are apart from scientific necessity. In other words, as the truth of reason carries its own evidence, so also with faith. To the mind to whom the axioms of reason are not self-evident, they cannot be proven. So also in the case of faith: for the mind that is not enlightened by faith, the evidence of faith is ridiculous. But for the man whose eyes have been enlightened by the Spirit, faith has its proper evidence, though different from that of reason. The only sufficient ground of faith is the authority of God Himself as he addresses me in His Word.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47864]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The average Ph.D thesis is nothing but the transference of bones from one graveyard to another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25373]]></link><description><![CDATA[The average Ph.D thesis is nothing but the transference of bones from one graveyard to another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4303]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I awoke one morning and found myself famous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15094]]></link><description><![CDATA[I awoke one morning and found myself famous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wafer fab (fabrication plant) is something very complex and a difficult business to run and operate, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32193]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wafer fab (fabrication plant) is something very complex and a difficult business to run and operate,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66521]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trying to be as positive as he could about it, he said to me, 'I have to tell you, Kate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trying to be as positive as he could about it, he said to me, 'I have to tell you, Kate ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ it was a Harrods bag'.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As natural gas and home heating-oil prices hit record highs, the federal government's failure to meet its obligation to revise ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39779]]></link><description><![CDATA[As natural gas and home heating-oil prices hit record highs, the federal government's failure to meet its obligation to revise energy-efficiency standards for common appliances calls out for prompt action.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our supplies of natural resources are not finite in any economic sense.
