The answer is so plain and simple that it is a marvel how intelligent men can manage to miss it as they do. Look at what Christ has done for the soul of man: that is your answer. Christianity is just Christ --nothing more and nothing less. It is a way of life, and He is that way. It is the truth about human destiny, and He is that truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything without tells the individual that he is nothing; everything within persuades him that he is everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20773]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything without tells the individual that he is nothing; everything within persuades him that he is everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even a cursory glance at history should convince one that individual crimes committed for selfish motives play a quite insignificant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47420]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even a cursory glance at history should convince one that individual crimes committed for selfish motives play a quite insignificant part in the human tragedy, compared to the numbers massacred in unselfish loyalty to one's tribe, nation, dynasty, church, or political ideology, ad majorem gloriam dei. The emphasis is on unselfish. Excepting a small minority of mercenary or sadistic disposition, wars are not fought for personal gain, but out of loyalty and devotion to king, country or cause. Homicide committed for personal reasons is a statistical rarity in all cultures, including our own. Homicide for unselfish reasons, at the risk of one's own life, is the dominant phenomenon of history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You've just got to think that your legs aren't tired and there's still a lot of game left to play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38916]]></link><description><![CDATA[You've just got to think that your legs aren't tired and there's still a lot of game left to play.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1717]]></link><description><![CDATA[And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So of cheerfulness, or a good temper, the more it is spent, the more it remains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5826]]></link><description><![CDATA[So of cheerfulness, or a good temper, the more it is spent, the more it remains.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Palm Sunday I bind my heart, this tide, to the Galilean's side,  To the wounds of Calvary, to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6210]]></link><description><![CDATA[Palm Sunday I bind my heart, this tide, to the Galilean's side,  To the wounds of Calvary, to the Christ who died for me.

And man would praise Thee, because he is one of Thy creatures; yea, man, though he bears about with him his mortality, the proof of his sin, the proof that Thou, O God, dost resist the proud, yet would man praise Thee, because he is one of Thy creatures. Thou dost prompt us thereto, making it a joy to praise Thee; for Thou hast created us unto Thyself, and our heart finds no rest until it rests in Thee. Grant me, O Lord, to know and understand which comes first, to call upon Thee, or to praise Thee, and which comes first, to know Thee or to call upon Thee.  ... The Confessions of St. Augustine    August 29, 1998  Instead of pursuing her appointed path of separation, persecution, world-hatred, poverty, and non-resistance, [the Church] has used... Scripture to justify her in lowering her purpose to the civilization of the world, the acquisition of wealth, the use of an imposing ritual, the erection of magnificent churches, the invocation of God's blessing upon the conflicts of armies, and the division of an equal brotherhood into "clergy" and "laity".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How absurd and delicious it is to be in love with somebody younger than yourself.
