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[God bless the King--I mean the faith's defender; God bless (no harm in blessing) the pretender;  But who the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54454]]></link><description><![CDATA[God bless the King--I mean the faith's defender; God bless (no harm in blessing) the pretender;  But who the pretender is, or who is King--   God bless us all--that's quite another thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes, and Adversity is not without comforts and hopes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes, and Adversity is not without comforts and hopes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But if We have such another victory, we are undone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60592]]></link><description><![CDATA[But if We have such another victory, we are undone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60592</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man ought to be twice tried for the same offence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50556]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man ought to be twice tried for the same offence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who doth right deeds Is twice born, and who doeth ill deeds vile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11663]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who doth right deeds Is twice born, and who doeth ill deeds vile.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A liberal is a person whose interests aren't at stake at the moment ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24666]]></link><description><![CDATA[A liberal is a person whose interests aren't at stake at the moment]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you can dream it, you can do it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2653]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you can dream it, you can do it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Asylum of the oppressed of every nation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2388]]></link><description><![CDATA[Asylum of the oppressed of every nation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And still the Raven, never flitting, Still is sitting, still is sitting  On the pallid bust of Pallas  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52982]]></link><description><![CDATA[And still the Raven, never flitting, Still is sitting, still is sitting  On the pallid bust of Pallas   Just above my chamber door;    And his eyes have all the seeming     Of a demon's that is dreaming,      And the lamplight o'er him streaming       Throws his shadow on the floor,        And my soul from out that shadow,         That lies floating on the floor,          Shall be lifted--nevermore.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without faith, hope and trust, there is no promise for the future, and without a promising future, life has no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57402]]></link><description><![CDATA[Without faith, hope and trust, there is no promise for the future, and without a promising future, life has no direction, no meaning and no justification.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They always say, 'Smile!' and sometimes that just ticks me off.

But we have infinitely more than this, for instead of dead relics, however "authentic" and well preserved, we have a living life-line, stretching unbroken to Christ Himself. We have all the comfort and security that comes from historic tradition, but instead of being given the sad nostalgia of looking at an object and saying, "Look, how wonderful! This is what He touched then," we are given an evergreen memorial [in communion] which says, "This is what He touches now.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely  The pangs ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27392]]></link><description><![CDATA[For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely  The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,   The insolence of office, and the spurns    That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,     When he himself might his quietus make      With a bare bodkin?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They got up on us in the beginning and we weren't able to catch up.

Dick Maliska  Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of complaining. •Jeff Raskin   Applying computer technology is simply finding the right wrench to pound in the correct screw. •Anonymous   The Programmer's Time-Space Continuum is defined as "Programmers continuously space the time." •Leon Lanthier   Computers are useless - they only give you answers. •Pablo Picasso   "Paradosfunctionoracle" is the term used by technicians to describe the reason no one knows why your computer won't work. •J. H. Goldfuss   No machine will increase the possibilities of life. They only increase the possibilities of idleness. •John Ruskin   All programmers are playwrights and all computers are lousy actors. •Anonymous  Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that just don't add up. •James Magary  Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes. •E W Dijkstra  Where a calculator on the ENIAC is equpped with 18,000 vaccuum tubes and weighs 30 tons, computers in the future may have only 1,000 vaccuum tubes and perhaps weigh 1 1/2 tons. •Popular Mechanics, 1949  Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things they make it easier to do don't need to be done. •Andy Rooney  Not even computers will replace committees, because committees buy computers. •Edward Shepherd Mead  A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. •John Gall   There won't be anything we won't say to people to try and convince them that our way is the way to go. •Bill Gates  If you can't make it good, at least make it look good. •Bill Gates  Looking at the proliferation of personal web pages on the net, it looks like very soon everyone on earth will have 15 Megabytes of fame. •MG Siriam   Surfing on the Internet is like sex; everyone boasts about doing more than they actually do.

After all, it was designed to withstand nuclear war, not just the puny huffs and puffs of politicians and religious fanatics. •Denise Caruso   Wow! They've got the internet on computers now! •Homer Simpson  Man is a game playing animal and a computer is another way to play games. •Scott Adams  I do not fear computers.
