If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Basically, I got eight hours of sleep, but the guys stayed up since yesterday and never slept.
