By the time they have finished with their dissection of the New Testament and with their explaining away as "myth" all that they find disquieting or unacceptable to the modern mind, the Christian way of life is little more than humanism with a slight tinge of religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On with the dance, let joy be unconfined. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48755]]></link><description><![CDATA[On with the dance, let joy be unconfined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death would not be called bad, O people, if one knew how to truly die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63909]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death would not be called bad, O people, if one knew how to truly die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63909</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cleveland County was lucky through that whole period. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41950]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cleveland County was lucky through that whole period.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's like anything else.
