We see that many articulate secularists are well-meaning and law-abiding men; we see them go into righteous indignation over injustice and often devote their lives to good works. So we conclude that "he can't be wrong whose life is in the right" -- that their philosophies are just as good guides to action as Christianity. What we don't see is that they are not acting on their philosophies. They are acting, out of habit or sentiment, on an inherited Christian ethic which they still take for granted though they have rejected the creed from which it sprang. Their children will inherit some what less of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's lots of fun.

Fear is nobler than sensuality. Fear is better than no God, better than a god made with hands. In that fear lay deep hidden the sense of the infinite. The worship of fear is true, though very low; and though not acceptable to God in itself -- for only the worship of spirit and of truth is acceptable to him -- yet even in His sight it is precious. For he regards men not as they are merely, but as they shall be; not as they shall be merely, but as they are now growing, or capable of growing, towards that image after which He made them that they might grow to it. Therefore a thousand stages, each in itself all but valueless, are of inestimable worth as the necessary and connected gradations of an infinite progress. A condition which of declension would indicate a devil, may of growth indicate a saint.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The unbought grace of life, the cheap defence of nations, the nurse of manly sentiment and heroic enterprise, is gone! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12518]]></link><description><![CDATA[The unbought grace of life, the cheap defence of nations, the nurse of manly sentiment and heroic enterprise, is gone!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brevity and conciseness are the parents of correction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4882]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brevity and conciseness are the parents of correction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4882</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A two-year old is kind of like having a blender, but you don't have a top for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3599]]></link><description><![CDATA[A two-year old is kind of like having a blender, but you don't have a top for it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take, O, take those lips away, That so sweetly were forsworn; And those eyes, the break of day, Lights that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55397]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take, O, take those lips away, That so sweetly were forsworn; And those eyes, the break of day, Lights that do mislead the morn: But my kisses bring again, bring again; Seals of love, but sealed in vain, sealed in vain. -Measure for Measure.
