At the end of the first quarter, we tried pulling out for the last shot, took a shot, they took it back and got a goal. They did it at the end of the second quarter.

They, too, stress the leap of faith and make irrationality almost a principle, dismissing the serious questions of seeking modern men as intellectual smoke-screens or diversions to conceal deeper personal problems. All this masks a desperate intellectual insecurity, barely disguised by the surrounding hedge of taboos to preserve purity. The strident intolerance of much guilt-driven evangelism betrays the same insecurity. In these circles, much that is taught has to be unlearned in the wider school of life, and it is not surprising that universities are littered with dropouts from such groups. Their non-rational, subjective faith is cruelly punctured by varsity-level questions, and many manage to survive only by resorting to a severely schizophrenic faith which they hold to be true religiously but not intellectually, historically, or scientifically.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You prove but too clearly that seeking to know Is too frequently learning to doubt.  [Fr., Vous ne prouvez ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12749]]></link><description><![CDATA[You prove but too clearly that seeking to know Is too frequently learning to doubt.  [Fr., Vous ne prouvez que trop que chercher a connaitre   N'est souvent qu' apprendre a douter.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12749</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath  Cannot remove nor choke the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9648]]></link><description><![CDATA[Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath  Cannot remove nor choke the strong conception   That I do groan withal.

What looks like a giving hand is often a holding on for dear life. Take away our holy duties and you leave our lives puny and meaningless. There is no doubt that in exchanging a self-centered for a selfless life we gain enormously in self-esteem. The vanity of the selfless, even those who practice utmost humility, is boundless.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are not the enemy, but the fellow victims.
