A Janus-faced entity who, looking inward, sees himself as a self-contained unique whole, looking outward as a dependent part. His self-assertive tendency is the dynamic manifestation of his unique wholeness, his autonomy and independence as a holon. Its equally universal antagonist, the integrative tendency, expresses his dependence on the larger whole to which he belongs: his 'part-ness.'.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some write their wrongs in marble: he more just, Stoop'd down serene and wrote them on the dust,  Trod ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44764]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some write their wrongs in marble: he more just, Stoop'd down serene and wrote them on the dust,  Trod under foot, the sport of every wind,   Swept from the earth and blotted from his mind,    There, secret in the grave, he bade them lie,     And grieved they could not 'scape the Almighty eye.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature is at work..

The first is its compromised, deficient understanding of revelation. Without Biblical historicity and veracity behind the Word of God, theology can only grow closer to Hinduism. Second, the modern Christian is drastically weak in an unmediated, persona. experiential knowledge of God. Often, what passes for religious experience is a communal emotion felt in church services, in meetings, in singing or contrived fellowship. Few Christians would know God on their own. Third, the modern church is often pathetically feeble in the expression of its focal principle of community. It has become an adult social club, preaching shop, or minister-dominated group. With these weaknesses, modern Christianity cannot hope to understand why people have turned to the East, let alone stand against the trend and offer an alternative.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not quite where we want to be right now.
