I have never been able to see how any being that is not a person could possess a moral and spiritual claim over me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My goal as a Christian (is) to sound the alarm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39569]]></link><description><![CDATA[My goal as a Christian (is) to sound the alarm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will miss him as a distinguished religious figure, who devoted his life to defending the values of peace, freedom ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41290]]></link><description><![CDATA[We will miss him as a distinguished religious figure, who devoted his life to defending the values of peace, freedom and equality.
