So he automatically writes off any Biblical account of a wondrous happening which suggests that there is an order of reality transcending the observable regularities of nature and occasionally breaking in upon them. Nor is rational skepticism content with jettisoning the Bible's miracle stories. It also dismisses other passages on the grounds that they reflect the ignorance and prejudice of a particular age, or the propaganda interests of the Church at a particular stage of its development. Its basic rule of Biblical interpretation is: "When in doubt, throw it out." And the highest scores in the game of radical reductionism are awarded to pedagogues who find the most novel and far-fetched reasons for doubting that any part of the Bible really means what it says.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wake Forest is honored to once again host the NCAA Championships.

Your faith is something everyone knows, for everyone knows that Christ was [crucified], and that everywhere men pray to Him. The whole world knows that His glory has not been spread by force and weapons, but by poor fishermen. 0 wise man, do you think the poor fishermen were not clever enough for this? Where they worked, there they made hearts better; where they could not work, there men remained bad; and therefore was the faith true and from God. The signs which the Lord had promised followed their teaching: in His name they drove out the devil; they spoke in new tongues; if they drank any deadly drink, they received therefrom no harm. Even if these wonders had not occurred, there would have been the wonder of wonders, that poor fishermen without any miracle could accomplish so great a work as the faith. It came from God, and so is Christ true, and Christ is thy God, who is in heaven and awaits thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But Shakespeare's magic could not copied be; Within that circle none durst walk but he. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55315]]></link><description><![CDATA[But Shakespeare's magic could not copied be; Within that circle none durst walk but he.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Wulfstan, Bishop of Worcester, 1095  There are a number of Hebrew words about salvation which also mean ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6187]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Wulfstan, Bishop of Worcester, 1095  There are a number of Hebrew words about salvation which also mean "to bring into a spacious environment", "to be at one's ease", "to be free to develop". "Salvation" can be seen then as the new life in Christ, in which we are to be "free to develop" into Christ-like people. For this maturing to take place, there needs to be a breaking down of barriers, a breaking up of the soil of our personalities, and a healing of inner wounds and hurts. The soil is softened, the clay becomes malleable through the experience of the tender love of God and the accepting, non-judgmental love of Christians. We cannot be beaten into shape.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's just goofy.
