His presence must never be used to provide a Christian justification for evil. To stand as a co-belligerent and not an ally will be to rally the middle ground for a genuine Third Way without mediocre compromise. The Third Way will not be easy. It will be lonely. Sometimes the Christian must have the courage to stand with the establishment, speaking boldly to the radicals and pointing out the destructive and counter-productive nature of their violence. At other times, he will stand as a co-belligerent with the radicals in their outrage and just demands for redress. The Christian is a co-belligerent with either or both when either or both are right, but... fearless in his opposition to either or both when they are wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best performance improvement is the transition from the non-working state to the working state. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20677]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best performance improvement is the transition from the non-working state to the working state.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No matter what age you are, or what your circumstances might be, you are special, and you still have something ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29859]]></link><description><![CDATA[No matter what age you are, or what your circumstances might be, you are special, and you still have something unique to offer.
