I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them the revelation of God to men was made, or appeared to be made, less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thought is the labour of the intellect, reverie is its pleasure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1123]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thought is the labour of the intellect, reverie is its pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The helicopter didn't transmit any kind of distress call that we know of. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30222]]></link><description><![CDATA[The helicopter didn't transmit any kind of distress call that we know of.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Providence is better then a rent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49723]]></link><description><![CDATA[Providence is better then a rent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The early bird gets the worm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29083]]></link><description><![CDATA[The early bird gets the worm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sex in space is not just a good idea, it\'s survival. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66859]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sex in space is not just a good idea, it\'s survival.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66859</guid></item></channel></rss>
