The atheist [Friedrich] Nietzsche also saw the point and argued forcefully that the person who gives up belief in God must be consistent and give up Christian morals as well, because the former is the foundation of the latter. He had nothing but contempt for fellow humanists who refused to see that Christian morality cannot survive the loss of its theological moorings, except as habit or as lifeless tradition. As Ayn Rand also sees so clearly, love of the neighbor cannot be rationally justified within the framework of secular humanism. Love for one's neighbor is an ethical implication of the Christian position. This suggests to me that the world's deepest problem is not economic or technological, but spiritual and moral. What is missing is the vision of reality that can sustain the neighbor-oriented life style that is so urgently needed in our world today.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46040]]></link><description><![CDATA[People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A corrupt judge does not carefully search for the truth. [Lat., Male verum examinat omnis  Corruptus judex.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23501]]></link><description><![CDATA[A corrupt judge does not carefully search for the truth. [Lat., Male verum examinat omnis  Corruptus judex.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4538]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bee to the blossom, moth to the flame; Each to his passion; what's in a name? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bee to the blossom, moth to the flame; Each to his passion; what's in a name?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no life that does not contribute to history. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19367]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no life that does not contribute to history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was a bombadier in WW 2.
