God is merciful and kind; he bestows truth, as well as rain and sunshine, upon the just and the unjust. Christ is the "true light that enlightens every man". This bestowal should inspire feelings of joy, not resentment, in the heart of a Christian. Aristotle said many wise things about logic, Confucius many wise things about morals. When a Christian attacks general wisdom in the name of the gospel, the natural man will attack the gospel in the name of general wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ire of a despotic king Rides forth upon destruction's wing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51105]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ire of a despotic king Rides forth upon destruction's wing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Neurosis is the way of avoiding non-being by avoiding being ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44401]]></link><description><![CDATA[Neurosis is the way of avoiding non-being by avoiding being]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The foule Toade hath a faire stone in his head. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50605]]></link><description><![CDATA[The foule Toade hath a faire stone in his head.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Physics isn't a religion.

Academically oriented Christians especially tend to think that the barriers to faith should be removed by repackaging the content of the message in a way more congenial to the modern outlook. But it is quite possible that we are dealing not so much with a failure of intellect as with an alienation from the experiential roots of Christianity itself so amply attested in the New Testament.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What song the Syrens sang, or what name Achilles assumed when he hid himself among women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11519]]></link><description><![CDATA[What song the Syrens sang, or what name Achilles assumed when he hid himself among women.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All my life I believed I knew something.

This agreement being made, the Physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little. And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment. The Old Woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing. The Physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the Judge. The Old Woman, standing up in the Court, argued: This man here speaks the truth in what he says; for I did promise to give him a sum of money if I should recover my sight: but if I continued blind, I was to give him nothing. Now he declares that I am healed. I on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: but now, though he swears I am cured of my blindness, I am not able to see a single thing in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I bet one legend that keeps recurring throughout history, in every culture, is the story of Popeye. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11749]]></link><description><![CDATA[I bet one legend that keeps recurring throughout history, in every culture, is the story of Popeye.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11749</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The compromise will always be more expensive than either of the suggestions it is compromising. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9284]]></link><description><![CDATA[The compromise will always be more expensive than either of the suggestions it is compromising.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9284</guid></item></channel></rss>
