I am referring to the almost total ignorance of the content and implication of the Christian Faith shown by many "clever" people today. Frankly, I find it horrifying to discover that men who are experts in their own line -- in astronomy, genetics, or nuclear physics, for example -- have no adult knowledge of what the Church of Christ stands for, and a complete blank ignorance of what the Church is achieving today. It is the more horrifying because people who rightly respect the expert for his knowledge in his own field have no idea that he has not carefully examined and reluctantly discarded Christianity; but in all probability he has never studied it at all!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had reports from farmers that they had seen baby snakes and their mothers out together and I thought, this ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35946]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had reports from farmers that they had seen baby snakes and their mothers out together and I thought, this is crazy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35946</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The time to relax is when you don't have time for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22613]]></link><description><![CDATA[The time to relax is when you don't have time for it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who surpasses or subdues mankind, must look down on the hate of those below. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23175]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who surpasses or subdues mankind, must look down on the hate of those below.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Managing our emotions increases intuition and clarity.
