What distinguishes the handling of these values in the churches is mainly the heavier dosage of religious vocabulary involved... Another way of putting this is to say that the churches operate with secular values while the secular institutions are permeated with religious terminology... An objective observer is hard put to tell the difference (at least in terms of values affirmed) between the church members and those who maintain an 'unchurched' status. Usually the most that can be said is that the church members hold the same values as everybody else, but with more emphatic solemnity. Thus, church membership in no way means adherence to a set of values at variance with those of the general society; rather, it means a stronger and more explicitly religious affirmation of the same values held by the community at large.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If gold knew what gold is, gold would get gold I wis. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49510]]></link><description><![CDATA[If gold knew what gold is, gold would get gold I wis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of the dusk a shadow, Then a spark;  Out of the cloud a silence,   Then a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14362]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of the dusk a shadow, Then a spark;  Out of the cloud a silence,   Then a lark;    Out of the heart a rapture,     Then a pain;      Out of the dead, cold ashes,       Life again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple, but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51414]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple, but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29457]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each man is the smith of his own fortune. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each man is the smith of his own fortune.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Buddy Guy finally got a break and made it.
