"I do not envy those who have to fight the battle of Christianity in the twentieth century," wrote Marcus Dods. "Yes, perhaps I do; but it will be a stiff fight."

"No", he cried; "there are two of us, at least", and faced the world, Christ's poor minority of one. I would rather have been Peter than one of the shouting mob. And today, perhaps, we may get our chance of that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A little girl at the wedding afterwards asked her mother why the bride changed her mind.
