Some media in the world are more critical towards what's happening than others. It depends on the journalist, it depends how much information they have about the case and which perspective they are asking you from. All of these things can play a role.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beginning a short series on sin:  Sin is nothing else than that the creature willeth otherwise than God willeth, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7146]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beginning a short series on sin:  Sin is nothing else than that the creature willeth otherwise than God willeth, and contrary to Him.  ...

The sensitive visitor to the mesas of Los Alamos is almost sure to meditate on the experience of that gifted man, Klaus Fuchs. Though his work in the laboratories was outstanding, his decision concerning the use of what he knew was disastrous. What if, in addition to his scientific competence, the younger Fuchs had shared something of the Christian conviction of his father, Emil Fuchs? Much of the subsequent history of our earth might then have been different.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By these things examine thyself.

One very effective way of silencing the voice of conscience is to impound in an Ism the teacher through whom it speaks; the trumpet no longer seriously disturbs our rest when we have murmured '..Thomist', 'Barthian', or 'Existentialist'. And in Macdonald it is, always the voice of conscience that speaks. He addresses the will: the demand for obedience, for "something to be neither more nor less nor other than done" is incessant. Yet in that very voice of conscience every other faculty somehow speaks as well -- intellect and imagination and humour and fancy and all the affections; and no man in modern times was perhaps more aware of the distinction between Law and Gospel, the inevitable failure of mere morality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in being an innovator. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20982]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in being an innovator.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Israel is willing to take a risk in order to make progress in the peace process. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32598]]></link><description><![CDATA[Israel is willing to take a risk in order to make progress in the peace process.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25926]]></link><description><![CDATA[We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18287]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that fights and runs away will live to fight another day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51978]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that fights and runs away will live to fight another day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any trainer or physician that deals with football players, and in particular offensive linemen and to an extent defensive linemen ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40862]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any trainer or physician that deals with football players, and in particular offensive linemen and to an extent defensive linemen knows that mass is good,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O thrush, your song is passing sweet, But never a song that you have sung  Is half so sweet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59252]]></link><description><![CDATA[O thrush, your song is passing sweet, But never a song that you have sung  Is half so sweet as thrushes sang   When my dear love and I were young.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too poor for a bribe, and too proud to importune, He had not the method of making a fortune. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4902]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too poor for a bribe, and too proud to importune, He had not the method of making a fortune.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Patience:  A minor form of despair disguised as a virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Patience:  A minor form of despair disguised as a virtue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.

A great many people sermonising in our churches today would be better off and of greater service if they absolved themselves from the bondage and disciplines of the pulpit and came down among their congregations, teaching informally on sounder educational principles. After all, the vital matter in the ministry of the Word is not that a clergyman delivers himself of a discourse but that the people to whom he ministers end up being taught something. The tragedy is that the professional clergy have been trained to sermonise and they seem overwhelmed with fears and a sense of insecurity when they contemplate other methods. A further problem, of course, is that most of our churches contain a significant number of people who become emotionally disturbed at any departure from what they have always done in the past. To them, the sermon is part of their Christianity -- even if it bores them stiff!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will...
