In our eyes, the job is not yet done; and such an action would be, though we would not put it so, an interference. But suppose our hope rests in the purpose of God: then we safely leave the timing of the earthly experiment to Him. Meanwhile, we do what we were told to do -- to be alert and to work and pray for the spread of His Kingdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have no weapons of mass destruction and the whole world knows that but Bush wants to impose his hegemony ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28264]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have no weapons of mass destruction and the whole world knows that but Bush wants to impose his hegemony on the world and subject Iraq to his rule,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What sought they thus afar? Bright jewels of the mine?  The wealth of seas, the spoils of war?--  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14972]]></link><description><![CDATA[What sought they thus afar? Bright jewels of the mine?  The wealth of seas, the spoils of war?--   They sought a faith's pure shrine!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's three inches thick, so it's going to keep all the heat inside your water heater that otherwise would be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31355]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's three inches thick, so it's going to keep all the heat inside your water heater that otherwise would be radiating out into your room.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I place economy among the first and most important virtues, and public debt as the greatest of dangers ...

We are afraid of the jeer about "pie in the sky", and of being told that we are trying to "escape" from the duty of making a happy world here and now, into dreams of a better world elsewhere.
