The sensitive visitor to the mesas of Los Alamos is almost sure to meditate on the experience of that gifted man, Klaus Fuchs. Though his work in the laboratories was outstanding, his decision concerning the use of what he knew was disastrous. What if, in addition to his scientific competence, the younger Fuchs had shared something of the Christian conviction of his father, Emil Fuchs? Much of the subsequent history of our earth might then have been different.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are no such things as incurables; there are only things for which man has not found a cure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12514]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are no such things as incurables; there are only things for which man has not found a cure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A soldier of the Legion lay dying in Algiers, There was a lack of woman's nursing, there was dearth of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57121]]></link><description><![CDATA[A soldier of the Legion lay dying in Algiers, There was a lack of woman's nursing, there was dearth of woman's tears; But a comrade stood beside him, while his lifeblood ebbed away]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The memory of past troubles is pleasant. [Lat., Jucunda memoria est praeteritorum malorum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59723]]></link><description><![CDATA[The memory of past troubles is pleasant. [Lat., Jucunda memoria est praeteritorum malorum.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Springtime is the land awakening.

And the church's response to this current situation will reveal, better than anything else, our faith in God -- or our faithlessness. If we churchmen interpret such pervasive doubt as a threat, then we will do as the church has done so often in the past: we will substitute the church for God, and make our church-centered activities into an ersatz kingdom of God. Our faithlessness will be evident in the easy paraphrase of the hard truth of the gospel, and in the lapse from the critical loyalty that God requires of us, into the vague and corrupting sentimentalism that has so marred American Protestantism. Or the church can interpret the present religious situation as a promise, as God's recall of His people to a new reformation. Our faithfulness to God-in-Christ will be manifest in the willingness to be honest with ourselves and with the gospel. Then we may view the church, not as an end in itself, but as the point of departure into the world for which the Son of God died. Which will it be?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And now, in keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in blood and guts, in living ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15221]]></link><description><![CDATA[And now, in keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in blood and guts, in living color, you're about to see another first - an attempted suicide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only in your imagination can you revise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53230]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only in your imagination can you revise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People often say that humans have always eaten animals, as if this is a justification for continuing the practice.
