When this particular neurosis becomes inconvenient to the government, what is to hinder the government from proceeding to 'cure' It? Such 'cure' will , of course, be compulsory; but under the humanitarian theory it will not be called by the shocking name of Persecution. No one will blame us for being Christians, no one will hate us, no one revile us. The new Nero will approach us with the silky manners of a doctor, and though all will be in fact {compulsory}, all will go on within the unemotional therapeutic sphere where words like 'right' and 'wrong' , or 'freedom' and 'slavery' are never heard. And thus when the command is given, every prominent Christian in the land may vanish overnight into Institutions for the Treatment of the Ideologically Unsound, and it will rest with the expert gaolers to when (if ever) they are to emerge. But it will not be persecution. Even if the treatment is painful, even if it is life-long, even if if it is fatal, that will be only a regrettable accident, the intention was purely therapeutic.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No woman has an abortion for fun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/128]]></link><description><![CDATA[No woman has an abortion for fun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the service of the Lord, it is not where but how you serve. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14513]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the service of the Lord, it is not where but how you serve.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The town was given a pretty clear message that it needed a new site. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39679]]></link><description><![CDATA[The town was given a pretty clear message that it needed a new site.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Margery Kempe, Mystic, after 1433  That crowd of Jews would have followed Christ at that moment because ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7846]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Margery Kempe, Mystic, after 1433  That crowd of Jews would have followed Christ at that moment because He was giving them what they wanted [bread], and they wished to use Him for their plans and dreams and purposes.
