We see more clearly than often has been the case that ecclesiology and christology are one. The ekklesia, the community of believers, has as its first and foremost qualification that it is that community which, as community, belongs to Christ and is in Christ, and as such is the sphere of God's salvation, redemption, and reconciliation, and of Christ's rulership. This is the archetypal reality of the Church. To see and seize this essential point is a great blessing. This blessing, however, could as well become a curse, if it remained a theme of theological meditation and self-contemplation. This new knowledge is not real knowledge if it is not accompanied by a horror about the alienation of the empirical Church from its own fundamental reality and by a deep longing for a tangible manifestation of the Church's true nature. This horror and this longing are the deeper motives which are operating in many of the events and passionate discussions around the place and responsibility of the laity as an organic part of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Rome] Widow of a King-people, but still queen of the world. [Fr., Veuve d'un peuple-roi, mais reine encore du monde.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54405]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Rome] Widow of a King-people, but still queen of the world. [Fr., Veuve d'un peuple-roi, mais reine encore du monde.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The swallow sweeps The slimy pool, to build his hanging house. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58441]]></link><description><![CDATA[The swallow sweeps The slimy pool, to build his hanging house.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best smell in the world is that man that you love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5396]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best smell in the world is that man that you love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5396</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A married woman has the same right to control her own body as does an unmarried woman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63992]]></link><description><![CDATA[A married woman has the same right to control her own body as does an unmarried woman.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why is it that wherever I go, the resident idiot heads straight for me?
