If the universe is so bad, or even half so bad, how on earth did human beings ever come to attribute it to the activity of a wise and good Creator? Men are fools, perhaps; but hardly so foolish as that. The direct inference from black to white, from evil flower to virtuous root, from senseless work to a workman infinitely wise, staggers belief. The spectacle of the universe as revealed by experience can never have been the ground of religion: it must have always been something in spite of which religion, acquired from a different source, was held.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A conservative is someone who believes in reform.

They have Christ, they have God, and they are satisfied. There can be no monotony in the contemplation and worship of the Infinite. Their great possession is unchangeable, but also inexhaustible; no change is possible where all is love and truth. The centre of the heavenly life is fixed and immovable, but the circumference may ever be advancing towards the centre, the saints may ever be drawing nearer and nearer to the goal which they can never reach. There may be progress in knowledge, progress in enjoyment, progress in service -- a progress which at every point will open up new wonders, new opportunities, new outlooks into a greater future, and as that future unfolds itself, new and unexpected scopes for the energies of redeemed men, new ways of fellowship with God in Christ, new companionships with the good and great of past generations, and with angelic beings who have watched and guarded us in life, and rejoiced over our repentance, and are ready to welcome us into the eternal mansions, and will share our worship and our work, our service and our joy, in the ages to come.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we anticipate seldom occurs: but what we least expect generally happens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2159]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we anticipate seldom occurs: but what we least expect generally happens.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This one step -- choosing a goal and sticking to it -- changes everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/850]]></link><description><![CDATA[This one step -- choosing a goal and sticking to it -- changes everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The prerequisite of originality is the art of forgetting, at the proper moment, what we know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52027]]></link><description><![CDATA[The prerequisite of originality is the art of forgetting, at the proper moment, what we know.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52027</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was the start of a new generation of country stars.

He insists he had 'legal authority derived from the Constitution and congressional resolution authorizing force.' But the Constitution explicitly requires the president to obey the law. And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention. It did not scrap the Constitution and allow the president to do whatever he pleased in any area in the name of fighting terrorism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39021</guid></item></channel></rss>
