What we can see is that both an incarnation and a virginal conception were thoroughly appropriate to the needs and circumstances of the case and were more "natural", in the sense of more appropriate, than the alternatives... In practice, denial of the virginal conception or inability to see its relevance almost always goes with an inadequate understanding of the Incarnation and of the Christian religion in general.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The secret to getting ahead is getting started. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65952]]></link><description><![CDATA[The secret to getting ahead is getting started.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Resolve and thou art free. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53975]]></link><description><![CDATA[Resolve and thou art free.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When people once are in the wrong, Each line they add is much too long;  Who fastest walks, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14170]]></link><description><![CDATA[When people once are in the wrong, Each line they add is much too long;  Who fastest walks, but walks astray,   Is only furthest from his way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One half the world must sweat and groan that the other half may dream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12926]]></link><description><![CDATA[One half the world must sweat and groan that the other half may dream.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is never death because they live in your heart foever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11218]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is never death because they live in your heart foever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just don't know how you make people get along, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39712]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just don't know how you make people get along,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Endurance is the crowning quality, And patience all the passion of great hearts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45726]]></link><description><![CDATA[Endurance is the crowning quality, And patience all the passion of great hearts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To John I owed great obligation: But John unhandsomely thought fit  To publish it to all the nation;  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50947]]></link><description><![CDATA[To John I owed great obligation: But John unhandsomely thought fit  To publish it to all the nation;   Sure John and I are more than quit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her name was called Lady Helena Herring and her age was 25 and she mated well with the earl. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32310]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her name was called Lady Helena Herring and her age was 25 and she mated well with the earl.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trivial facts are often the best hints to what is going on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56993]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trivial facts are often the best hints to what is going on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56993</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The place is all awave with trees, Limes, myrtles, purple-beaded,  Acacias having drunk the lees   Of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59671]]></link><description><![CDATA[The place is all awave with trees, Limes, myrtles, purple-beaded,  Acacias having drunk the lees   Of the night-dew, fain headed,    And wan, grey olive-woods, which seem     The fittest foliage for a dream.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15582]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15582</guid></item></channel></rss>
