If, after all His claims and promises, Christ had died and merely lived on as a fragrant memory, He would only be revered as an extremely good but profoundly mistaken man. His claims to be God, His claims to be Himself the very principle of life, would be mere self-delusion. His authoritative pronouncements on the nature of God and Man and Life would be at once suspect. Why should He be right about the lesser things, if He was proved to be completely wrong in the greater?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The charisma, the celebrity, around John Paul was so strong that, in a way, the religious significance of the event ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38501]]></link><description><![CDATA[The charisma, the celebrity, around John Paul was so strong that, in a way, the religious significance of the event sort of fades from view.

The whole Bible proclaims the need for, and the achievement of, a salvation that will remake creation, and it is just such a salvation, at once supernatural and historical, that was won on Easter Day. If the Resurrection narratives are [merely] a subtle way of convincing us that God still loves us, or that there is a life beyond death, they must be reckoned among the oddest and most ill-conceived stories ever written.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it is a dead issue.
