To me, at least, this is a thoroughly unsound argument, for Christ did not come into the world to bring men "specialized activity," but life, fuller and more satisfying than it had been ever before. If the churches have made Christianity appear to be some kind of specialized spiritual performance so much the worse for them. The real purpose of Christ, the real relevance of the Gospel, is surely to enable men to live together as sons of God. Human beings, like children, love to have secrets, love to be "in the know." But the Christian religion was never meant to be a secret recipe for living, held by a few. It is Good News for all mankind and, because it is that, the more clearly and intelligibly it can be presented, the more faithfully it is following its Master's purpose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best inheritance a parent can give to his children is a few minutes of their time each day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15184]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best inheritance a parent can give to his children is a few minutes of their time each day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to be a genius--I have enough problems just trying to be a man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17349]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't want to be a genius--I have enough problems just trying to be a man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17349</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At the beginning of the twentieth century, every single leading Muslim intellectual was in love with the west, and wanted ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39485]]></link><description><![CDATA[At the beginning of the twentieth century, every single leading Muslim intellectual was in love with the west, and wanted their countries to look just like Britain and France.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To become rich is easy.
