Logic is designed to give inevitably true results starting from known true -- or assumed-to-be-true -- premises. Logic is a wonderful tool when we want only logical conclusions. We should not reject such a machine merely because it is not equipped to handle all of reality. The scientist who commits himself to use a logic machine is doing wisely, qua scientist, for use on data of science. But if he feeds into that machine convictions that there is not God, or ignores God because He is not in his corpus of data, and then draws from his logic the conclusion that God does not exist, his conclusion is irrelevant. Logic is a tool; it should not be made into a religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Have mercy upon us miserable sinners. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27335]]></link><description><![CDATA[Have mercy upon us miserable sinners.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She was just ashamed and scared and came up with a story.

But -- I know not well whence it comes to pass -- the things spoken do not abide nor incorporate in our minds. They please and refresh for a little while, like a shower of rain in a dry season, that soaketh not unto the roots of things; the power of them doth not enter into us. Is it not from hence, that their notions of future things are not educed out of the experience which we have of the beginnings of them in this world? Yea, the soul is disturbed, not edified, in all contemplations of future glory, where things are proposed to it whereof in this life it hath neither foretaste, sense, experience, nor evidence. No man ought to look for anything in heaven, but what one way or other he hath some experience of in this life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing that will kill a man so soon as having nobody to find fault with but himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15439]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing that will kill a man so soon as having nobody to find fault with but himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you find an Australian indoors, it's a fair bet that he will have a glass in his hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39004]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you find an Australian indoors, it's a fair bet that he will have a glass in his hand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm treating you as a friend asking you to share my present minuses in the hope that I can ask ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63330]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm treating you as a friend asking you to share my present minuses in the hope that I can ask you to share my future pluses.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's been a little wear and tear from the travel.
