It has run its course. It is vain for eloquent atheists to talk of the great truths that will be revealed if once we see free thought begin. We have seen it end.

You cannot fancy a more skeptical world than that in which men doubt whether there is a world. It might certainly have reached its bankruptcy more quickly and cleanly if it had not been feebly hampered by the application of indefensible laws of blasphemy or by the absurd pretense that modern England is Christian. But it would have reached the bankruptcy anyhow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Providence has given us hope and sleep as a compensation for the many cares of life ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51909]]></link><description><![CDATA[Providence has given us hope and sleep as a compensation for the many cares of life]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51909</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An angelic boyhood becomes a Satanic old age. [Lat., Angelicus juvenis senibus satanizat in annis.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48963]]></link><description><![CDATA[An angelic boyhood becomes a Satanic old age. [Lat., Angelicus juvenis senibus satanizat in annis.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man, it feels so good, you don't even know.
