The atheist [Friedrich] Nietzsche also saw the point and argued forcefully that the person who gives up belief in God must be consistent and give up Christian morals as well, because the former is the foundation of the latter. He had nothing but contempt for fellow humanists who refused to see that Christian morality cannot survive the loss of its theological moorings, except as habit or as lifeless tradition. As Ayn Rand also sees so clearly, love of the neighbor cannot be rationally justified within the framework of secular humanism. Love for one's neighbor is an ethical implication of the Christian position. This suggests to me that the world's deepest problem is not economic or technological, but spiritual and moral. What is missing is the vision of reality that can sustain the neighbor-oriented life style that is so urgently needed in our world today.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just then return'd at shut of evening flowers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Just then return'd at shut of evening flowers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A frequent intercession with God, earnestly beseeching Him to forgive the sins of all mankind, to bless them with His ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7442]]></link><description><![CDATA[A frequent intercession with God, earnestly beseeching Him to forgive the sins of all mankind, to bless them with His providence, enlighten them with His Spirit, and bring them to everlasting happiness, is the divinest exercise that the heart of man can be engaged in. Be daily, therefore, on your knees, in a solemn deliberate performance of this devotion, praying for others in such forms, with such length, importunity, and earnestness, as you use for yourself; and you will find all little, ill-natured passions die away, your heart grow great and generous, delighting in the common happiness of others, as you used only to delight in your own... It was this holy intercession that raised Christians to such a state of mutual love, as far exceeded all that had been praised and admired in human friendship. And when the same spirit of intercession is again in the world, when Christianity has the same power over the hearts of people that it then had, this holy friendship will be again in fashion, and Christians will be again the wonder of the world, for that exceeding love which they bear to one another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is always the danger that we may just do the work for the sake of the work.
