Now, I do not want here to discuss whether the miraculous is possible: I only want to point out that this is a purely philosophical question. Scholars, as scholars, speak on it with no more authority than anyone else. The canon, "If miraculous, unhistorical", is one they bring to their study of the texts, not one they have learned from it. If one is speaking of authority, the united authority of all the Biblical critics in the world counts for nothing. On this they speak simply as men -- men obviously influenced by, and perhaps insufficiently critical of, the spirit of the age they grew up in.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All teams are going to try and prove they can beat the No. 1 team.

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[They're pretty skinny and not very attractive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32518]]></link><description><![CDATA[They're pretty skinny and not very attractive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Viewed freely, the English language is the accretion and growth of every dialect, race, and range of time, and is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Viewed freely, the English language is the accretion and growth of every dialect, race, and range of time, and is both the free and compacted composition of all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God answers sharp and sudden on some prayers, And thrusts the thing we have prayed for in our face,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48045]]></link><description><![CDATA[God answers sharp and sudden on some prayers, And thrusts the thing we have prayed for in our face,  A gauntlet with a gift in 't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In places like Ford County, Piatt, Douglas and DeWitt counties, (agriculture) is a large economic driver. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38098]]></link><description><![CDATA[In places like Ford County, Piatt, Douglas and DeWitt counties, (agriculture) is a large economic driver.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ivory Coast is a good team and has an advantage because it's just played the African Cup final.
