We don't despise God's name; in fact, we call upon it constantly to justify ourselves... If we object to meat-eating, we declare that God is vegetarian; if we abhor war, we proclaim a pacifist Deity. He who turned water into wine to gladden a wedding it now accused by many of favouring that abominable fluid grape juice. There can hardly be a more evil way of taking God's name in vain than this way of presuming to speak in it. For here is spiritual pride, the ultimate sin, in action -- the sin of believing in one's own righteousness. The true prophet says humbly, "To me, a sinful man, God spoke." But the scribes and Pharisees declare, "When we speak, God agrees." They feel no need of a special revelation, for they are always, in their own view, infallible. It is this self-righteousness of the pious that most breeds atheism, by inspiring all decent, ordinary men with loathing of the enormous lie.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once we have learned to read, meaning of words can somehow register without consciousness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4579]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once we have learned to read, meaning of words can somehow register without consciousness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4579</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything you read in newspapers is absolutely true, except for that rare story of which you happen to have first-hand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44478]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything you read in newspapers is absolutely true, except for that rare story of which you happen to have first-hand knowledge]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The focus should be on making sure that the Palestinian infiltration is studied by the government and that it takes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42617]]></link><description><![CDATA[The focus should be on making sure that the Palestinian infiltration is studied by the government and that it takes responsibility for how to deal with the situation,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[not to allow Lebanon to be a passage for conspiracy against Syria. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29896]]></link><description><![CDATA[not to allow Lebanon to be a passage for conspiracy against Syria.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It behoves every man who values liberty of conscience for himself, to resist invasions of it in the case of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24740]]></link><description><![CDATA[It behoves every man who values liberty of conscience for himself, to resist invasions of it in the case of others: or their case may, by change of circumstances, become his own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For chance fights ever on the side of the prudent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51968]]></link><description><![CDATA[For chance fights ever on the side of the prudent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis strange, but true: for truth is always strange; Stranger than fiction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48775]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis strange, but true: for truth is always strange; Stranger than fiction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48775</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but talent instantly recognizes genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26753]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but talent instantly recognizes genius.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26753</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[(Womack) could pull those single-wides off and put two nice double-wides on that property without even coming before this board, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33790]]></link><description><![CDATA[(Womack) could pull those single-wides off and put two nice double-wides on that property without even coming before this board,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I told them, in that situation you can't think about making or missing.

The shared life of the Christian community must become a context in which the differing gifts can be used for each other. There is much still to be learned about this. Are the homes of married Christians an added support for the single? Is the availability of the single Christian put at the disposal of his married friends, for "babysitting" duties and the like. And what is true of the mutual support of married and single needs to be true in a wider way of the care exercised by the married and the single for each other, so that nobody's home life becomes completely cut off from support and help.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I know what love is, it is because of you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65732]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I know what love is, it is because of you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diaulus, lately a doctor, is now an undertaker' what he does as an undertaker, he used to do also as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60070]]></link><description><![CDATA[Diaulus, lately a doctor, is now an undertaker' what he does as an undertaker, he used to do also as a doctor.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60070</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nearer, my God, to Thee-- Nearer to Thee--  E'en though it be a cross   That raiseth me; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17668]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nearer, my God, to Thee-- Nearer to Thee--  E'en though it be a cross   That raiseth me;    Still all my song shall be     Nearer, my God, to Thee,      Nearer to Thee!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beware the deadly fumes of that insane elation Which rises from the cup of mad impiety,  And go, get ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beware the deadly fumes of that insane elation Which rises from the cup of mad impiety,  And go, get drunk with that divine intoxication   Which is more sober far than all sobriety.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joy comes, grief goes, we know not how. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65377]]></link><description><![CDATA[Joy comes, grief goes, we know not how.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Allen Gardiner, founder of the South American Missionary Society, 1851 Commemoration of Albert Schweitzer, Teacher, Physician, Missionary, 1965 ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7654]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Allen Gardiner, founder of the South American Missionary Society, 1851 Commemoration of Albert Schweitzer, Teacher, Physician, Missionary, 1965  Who is it that has helped you most? Has it not been those who believed in you? Perhaps there may be few such left. The light of expectation may have died out of the most friendly and hopeful eyes; and you yourself may have lost heart. Ah! but there is still One whose faith in you has never wavered. And how wonderful it is that that one should be Jesus Christ!... It was a wonderful dream God dreamed, Christ says, when He created you; it was a stately being that was in His mind when you were fashioned; and I can make you all He meant that you should be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Piety in art--poetry in art--Puseyism in art--let us be careful how we confound them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3189]]></link><description><![CDATA[Piety in art--poetry in art--Puseyism in art--let us be careful how we confound them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most cheerleaders have knee problems.
