In a subtle way, talking about something becomes an excuse for not doing it. This new bolt-hole of the conference and study group is not confined to the local congregation. It is a painful fact of life in the central structures of the churches. We have a welter of reports, commissions, surveys, liaison bodies, and so on. They have the appearance of progressive thinking and readiness to face change, combined with the function of being delaying devices. They are the sacraments of current Christianity, and its dilemma. Outreach is a move from power structures to meekness structures, and, in spite of the fact that Christians believe that it is the meek who shall inherit the earth, they show (as in the ecumenical movement) a distinct reluctance to relinquish power-structure thinking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I will learn over the years will be of benefit and interest to me personally but, as far as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42539]]></link><description><![CDATA[What I will learn over the years will be of benefit and interest to me personally but, as far as the program is concerned, I'm the mouthpiece of the viewers as well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42539</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Corruption springs from light: 'tis one same power Creates, preserves, destroys; matter whereon  It works, on e'er self-transmutative form, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25042]]></link><description><![CDATA[Corruption springs from light: 'tis one same power Creates, preserves, destroys; matter whereon  It works, on e'er self-transmutative form,   Common to now the living, now the dead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60350]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Touring is really a pretty lonely business. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34240]]></link><description><![CDATA[Touring is really a pretty lonely business.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody agrees that we have to fix these levees.
