There should be no real conflict between science, which is the search for truth, and Christ's teachings, which I hold to be truth itself. It is only when scientists remove God from creation that the Christian is faced with an irreconcilable situation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The newest computer can merely compound, at speed, the oldest problem in the relations between human beings, and in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9379]]></link><description><![CDATA[The newest computer can merely compound, at speed, the oldest problem in the relations between human beings, and in the end the communicator will be confronted with the old problem, of what to say and how to say it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difficulties arise when we ask how much this polar complementarity [of the sexes] should be reflected in the structure ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6391]]></link><description><![CDATA[The difficulties arise when we ask how much this polar complementarity [of the sexes] should be reflected in the structure of social life, both domestic and public. The New Testament [again, and notoriously, in the person of St Paul] assumes that there will be places other than the bedroom in which men and women assume consciously differentiated roles. They will do so in the affairs of the home, in which the wife is to "submit" to her husband (Eph. 5:22ff) as head. They will do so even outside the context of family life, since man is "head" of woman in some sense; in quite another context, when the Church is at worship (I Cor. 11:2ff). In order that St Paul should not be misjudged, we must note--(a) that this relational ordering of male and female presupposes a fundamental generic equality (I Cor. 11:1 ff); and (b) that the "submission" of the wife is a special case of a "submission" of all Christians to one another, and complements a husband's love that is to be expressed in self-sacrifice (Eph. 5:2lff, 25ff). The apostle is not an apologist for male tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Driven by the forces of love, the fragments of the world seek each other so that the world may come ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64468]]></link><description><![CDATA[Driven by the forces of love, the fragments of the world seek each other so that the world may come to being.rn]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I could see how this could deal a major crushing blow to the building industry and to the green industry ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35014]]></link><description><![CDATA[I could see how this could deal a major crushing blow to the building industry and to the green industry in particular.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The condition of perfection is idleness: the aim of perfection is youth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20319]]></link><description><![CDATA[The condition of perfection is idleness: the aim of perfection is youth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in general in a dualism between facts and the ideas of those facts in human heads. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9348]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in general in a dualism between facts and the ideas of those facts in human heads.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9348</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody who owns the stock for a long-term investment is going to sell over a $60 million miss ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody who owns the stock for a long-term investment is going to sell over a $60 million miss]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A miniature like this would have been a love token.

Suppose three unexcused absences required that the individual's name be automatically dropped from the roll, and he could be reinstated only by special vote of the body. Suppose absences from services had to be made up by attending services in some other place, or by carrying out some special project. Suppose church members had to be re-elected to membership each year, and that their attendance and participation in the program of activities determined how the vote went. Oh, well -- just suppose.   ... from The Baptist Messenger  September 16, 2002 Feast of Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage, Martyr, 258 Commemoration of Ninian, Bishop of Galloway, Apostle to the Picts, c. 430 Commemoration of Edward Bouverie Pusey, Priest, tractarian, 1882   This seems a cheerful world, Donatus, when I view it from this fair garden, under the shadow of these vines. But if I climbed some great mountain and looked out over the wide lands, you know very well what I would see--brigands on the high roads, pirates on the seas; in the amphitheaters men murdered to please applauding crowds; under all roofs misery and selfishness. It is really a bad world, Donatus, an incredibly bad world. Yet in the midst of it I have found a quiet and holy people. They have discovered a joy which is a thousand times better than any pleasures of this sinful life. They are despised and persecuted, but they care not. They have overcome the world. These people, Donatus, are the Christians -- and I am one of them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My creed is that:/ Happiness is the only good./ The place to be happy ishere./ The time to be happy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21645]]></link><description><![CDATA[My creed is that:/ Happiness is the only good./ The place to be happy ishere./ The time to be happy is now./ The way to be happy is to make othersso.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man's life is a fairy-tale written by God's fingers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24830]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man's life is a fairy-tale written by God's fingers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you want something, you have to be willing to pay your dues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15779]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you want something, you have to be willing to pay your dues.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stay is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41077]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stay is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...
