It is not enthusiasm, but dogma, that differentiates a Christian from a pagan society.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If one of us could ascend to the heavenly realm and for a few hours accompany the divine on His ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53311]]></link><description><![CDATA[If one of us could ascend to the heavenly realm and for a few hours accompany the divine on His daily rounds, he would see below millions of his fellow humans busily hurling themselves into the passions, sports, and action of those around him.

I want to be known admired, and loved by the whole world!"
