If that is where it rests, it is an optimism which will suffer ultimate disillusionment. Romanticism will be transmuted into cynicism, as it has always been in the world's history. The faith of a Christian is something quite different from this optimism. It is trust in God, in a good God who created a good world, though the world is not now good; in a good God, powerful and good enough finally to destroy the evil that men do and redeem them of their sins. This kind of faith is not optimism. It does not, in fact, arise until optimism breaks down and men cease to trust in themselves that they are righteous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel bad about it.

It involves the concepts of authoritative examination, of unquestionable proof, of decisive judgment, of punitive power. Whatever the final issue may be, he who "convicts" another places the truth of the case in dispute in a clear light before him, so that it must be seen and acknowledged as truth. He who then rejects the conclusion which the exposition involves, rejects it with his eyes open and at his peril. Truth seen as truth carries with it condemnation to all who refuse to welcome it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fair words butter no parsnips. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48897]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fair words butter no parsnips.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Benefits become business events, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32946]]></link><description><![CDATA[Benefits become business events,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32946</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At this point, the compute grid is well understood.
