What Christians should have called it was, rather, "a contemptibly fraudulent way of living on the cheap, by reaping the maximum fruits of Christian effort, while contributing the minimum effort of your own." When secularists accused Christians of "living in the past," the Christians ought to have retaliated by pointing out that secularists were "living off the past." By the time they got around to doing so, however, the majority of secularists had become morally incapable of seeing the point.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We knew about their protest and had taken precautionary steps. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41367]]></link><description><![CDATA[We knew about their protest and had taken precautionary steps.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fierce eagles breed not the tender dove. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50219]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fierce eagles breed not the tender dove.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was going to write myself in, but I was afraid I'd get shot. (on his decision not to vote) ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57629]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was going to write myself in, but I was afraid I'd get shot. (on his decision not to vote)]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I got all my work done to graduate in two months and then they were like, I'm sorry, you have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66131]]></link><description><![CDATA[I got all my work done to graduate in two months and then they were like, I'm sorry, you have to take driver's ed.
