And until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race, there is war. And until that day, the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship, rule of international morality, will remain but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained... now everywhere is war.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no shame in taking orders from those who themselves have learned to obey. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44730]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no shame in taking orders from those who themselves have learned to obey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those that know, do.

Refugee CampAs battlefields in a minuteClouds of black smokes belchedFrom the nozzle of the missilesTurned the dwellings into debrisAnd lives breathe under rubbleStill desires of livingThat will never be fulfilledSighing are heard in the airUnseen ghosts are roaming freelySearching their brotherhoodsLiving or deadSouls are still weeping bitterlyWith sorrows that never endIn the war turned atmosphereFlying high in the sky appeared The hungry vultures that smellOdors of rotten human flesh As if the open graveyardsTo wipe the terrors and even its ghostsOut of the worldly atmosphereReassuring pure peaceIn every people’s mindIs’t the rebirth of terror Or alternative terror ?© Pushpa Ratna Tuladhar.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are given one life, and the decision is our whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind,

Theologia Germanica    November 12, 1997  The Partisan Review, a journal of literary opinion representing a section of advanced secular thought, recently published a series of papers answering the question, "Why has there been a turn toward religion among intellectuals?" The asking of the question is significant. Few writers dispute the fact implied by it. Most of the contributors, whether they count themselves among those who have "turned to religion" or not, find the principal reason for it in the collapse of the optimistic hope that modern science and human good will would bring the world into an era of peace and justice. The confidence in that outcome has been so violently shaken that men must ask whether there are not higher resources than man's to sustain courage and hope. The faith of the Bible points to such sources. God works within the tragic destiny of human efforts with a healing power, and a reconciling spirit. Even those who have felt completely superior to all "outworn" religious notions, must look today at least wistfully to the possibility that such a God lives and works.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6506</guid></item></channel></rss>
