Secular education seems to me intellectually clean and comprehensible. Moral instruction seems to me unclean, intolerable; I would destroy it with fire. Teaching the Old Testament by itself means teaching ancient Hebrew ethics, which are simple, barbaric rudimentary, and, to a Christian, unsatisfying. Teaching moral instruction means teaching modern London, Birmingham and Boston ethics, which are not barbaric and rudimentary, but are corrupt, hysterical and crawling with worms, and which are to a Christian, not unsatisfying but detestable. The old Jew who says that you must fight only for your tribe is inadequate; but the modern prig who says you must never fight for anything is substantially and specifically immoral. I know quite well, of course, that the unreligious ethics suggested for modern schools do not verbally assert these things; they only talk about peaceful reform, true Christianity, and the importance of Count Tolstoy. It is all a matter of tone and implication--but then, so is all teaching. Education is implication. It is not the things you say which children respect; when you say things, they very commonly laugh and do the opposite. It is the things you assume that really sink into them. It is the things you forget even to teach that they learn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take a little rum The less you take the better  Pour it in the lakes   Of Wener ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26688]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take a little rum The less you take the better  Pour it in the lakes   Of Wener or of Wetter.    Dip a spoonful out     And mind you don't get groggy,      Pour it in the lake       Of Winnipissiogie.        Stir the mixture well         Lest it prove inferior,          Then put half a drop           Into Lake Superior.            Every other day             Take a drop in water,              You'll be better soon               Or at least you oughter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the prophecies of the Old Testament are not rightly interpreted of Jesus our Christ, then there is no prediction ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7576]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the prophecies of the Old Testament are not rightly interpreted of Jesus our Christ, then there is no prediction whatever contained in it of that stupendous event, the rise and establishment of Christianity, in comparison with which all the preceding Jewish history is as nothing. With the exception of the book of Daniel, which the Jews themselves never classed among the prophecies, and an obscure text of Jeremiah, there is not a passage in all the Old Testament which favours the notion of a temporal Messiah. What moral object was there, for which such a Messiah should come? What could he have been but a sort of virtuous Napoleon?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything is temporary.
