As a plain matter of fact, religion in this country is generally regarded as a tolerated pastime for such people as happen to like to indulge in occasional godly exercises -- as a strictly private matter in an increasingly close-knit and socially acting society -- in other words, as something that does not count. I should like to see the Church recognize that it has been pushed into the realm of the non-essentials, and to persuade it to fight like fury for the right and the duty to bring every act of America and Americans before the bar of God's judgment. [Christian leaders] are making valiant claim to such a right and duty; but the great mass of Church members are content to regard the Church as a conglomerate of private culture clubs, nice for christenings, weddings and funerals. Most Church members readily agree with the unchurched majority that it is not the proper business of the Church to criticize America or Americans.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bird of the amber beak, Bird of the golden wing!  Thy dower is thy carolling;   Thou hast ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5200]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bird of the amber beak, Bird of the golden wing!  Thy dower is thy carolling;   Thou hast not far to seek    Thy bread, nor needest wine     To make thy utterance divine;      Thou art canopied and clothed       And unto Song bethrothed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice is itself the great standing policy of civil society; and any eminent departure from it, under any circumstances, lies ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23642]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice is itself the great standing policy of civil society; and any eminent departure from it, under any circumstances, lies under the suspicion of being no policy at all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is politically right which is morally wrong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21418]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is politically right which is morally wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Honest labor bears a lovely face. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23931]]></link><description><![CDATA[Honest labor bears a lovely face.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How good bad music and bad reasons sound when we march against an enemy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61215]]></link><description><![CDATA[How good bad music and bad reasons sound when we march against an enemy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For every minute spent in organizing, an hour is earned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48124]]></link><description><![CDATA[For every minute spent in organizing, an hour is earned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing so absurd or ridiculous that has not at some time been said by some philosopher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/221]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing so absurd or ridiculous that has not at some time been said by some philosopher.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O my prophetic soul! My uncle?
