What we can see is that both an incarnation and a virginal conception were thoroughly appropriate to the needs and circumstances of the case and were more "natural", in the sense of more appropriate, than the alternatives... In practice, denial of the virginal conception or inability to see its relevance almost always goes with an inadequate understanding of the Incarnation and of the Christian religion in general.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I should like to spend the whole of my life in travelling abroad, if I could anywhere borrow another life ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59577]]></link><description><![CDATA[I should like to spend the whole of my life in travelling abroad, if I could anywhere borrow another life to spend afterwards at home.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[China has no income tax, no unemployment and not a single soldier outside its borders. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47358]]></link><description><![CDATA[China has no income tax, no unemployment and not a single soldier outside its borders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  Much of today's Christianity is almost completely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7779]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  Much of today's Christianity is almost completely earthbound, and the words of Jesus about what follows this life are scarcely studied at all. This, I believe, is partly due to man's enormous technical successes, which make him feel master of the human situation. But it is also partly due to our scholars and experts. By the time they have finished with their dissection of the New Testament and with their explaining away as "myth" all that they find disquieting or unacceptable to the modern mind, the Christian way of life is little more than humanism with a slight tinge of religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once I got there, I noticed that smoke was everywhere, and we noticed that someone had tried to kick one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38911]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once I got there, I noticed that smoke was everywhere, and we noticed that someone had tried to kick one of the side doors in to get in the church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16521]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The present condition of fame is merely fashion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15128]]></link><description><![CDATA[The present condition of fame is merely fashion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The juries are our judges of all fact, and of law when they choose it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23580]]></link><description><![CDATA[The juries are our judges of all fact, and of law when they choose it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was able to go to Iraq.. to the place my son died..and fill my promise to my wife to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18225]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was able to go to Iraq.. to the place my son died..and fill my promise to my wife to put a crucifix onthe spot.. and bring home some of the blooddrenched dirt..and plant a white rose bush in itMilitary Families Speak Out.. broadcast on C Span.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is but one freedom, to put oneself right with death.

A long series of rejections and subsequent attendant conditions follow the rejections of the Bible as God's Word. Next to that rejection has come the rejection of the God of the Bible. Next, there usually follows a rejection of the Bible's presentation of man as a lost rebel against God, [and then] comes the rejection of biblical morality and ethics. [After] all of these, the next step is a short one--the rejection of biblical obedience to the laws of God and man. And, of course, many more items of rejection can be added to the list. But the crucial point here is that all of these can be traced back to the initial rejection of the absolute authority of Holy Writ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well may hee smell fire, whose gowne burnes. [Well may he smell fire, whose gown burns.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16010]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well may hee smell fire, whose gowne burnes. [Well may he smell fire, whose gown burns.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is hard.
