We must do it together -- or be cast aside together, and God in his absolute freedom goes on by other means to use His Church in hastening His Kingdom.  ...Howard Hewlett Clark    January 31, 1998  Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  The axioms of reason are non-demonstrable assumptions. Why should faith not be granted the same privilege? The denial of the truths of faith is, in the last analysis, no less a faith than faith itself, for it rests on personal assumptions which are apart from scientific necessity. In other words, as the truth of reason carries its own evidence, so also with faith. To the mind to whom the axioms of reason are not self-evident, they cannot be proven. So also in the case of faith: for the mind that is not enlightened by faith, the evidence of faith is ridiculous. But for the man whose eyes have been enlightened by the Spirit, faith has its proper evidence, though different from that of reason. The only sufficient ground of faith is the authority of God Himself as he addresses me in His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Character must be kept bright as well as clean. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1165]]></link><description><![CDATA[Character must be kept bright as well as clean.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1165</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From a security standpoint, it is easier to secure their intellectual property and their new ideas in a campus setting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42210]]></link><description><![CDATA[From a security standpoint, it is easier to secure their intellectual property and their new ideas in a campus setting than one where all their people are spread out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52746]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is indeed a mixture of truth and make-believe.
