Some followers of the Rev. R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannnot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philosopher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or he must deny the present union between God and Man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the shorthand of emotion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13723]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the shorthand of emotion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A behaviorist is someone who pulls habits out of rats. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17223]]></link><description><![CDATA[A behaviorist is someone who pulls habits out of rats.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is dainty to be sick, if you have leisure and convenience for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12512]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is dainty to be sick, if you have leisure and convenience for it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Interest rates remain at relatively low levels and consequently the mortgage business remains robust, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36616]]></link><description><![CDATA[Interest rates remain at relatively low levels and consequently the mortgage business remains robust,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God knows I loved my niece, And she is dead, slandered to death by villains,  That dare as well ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56552]]></link><description><![CDATA[God knows I loved my niece, And she is dead, slandered to death by villains,  That dare as well answer a man indeed   As I dare take a serpent by the tongue.    Boys, apes, braggarts, Jacks, milksops!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The swifter hand doth the swift words outrun: Before the tongue hath spoke the hand hath done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46021]]></link><description><![CDATA[The swifter hand doth the swift words outrun: Before the tongue hath spoke the hand hath done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more people who know about it, the more help we can get.

They do not find it among Christians, because these Christians are talking where they should be listening. But he who can no longer listen to his brother will soon be no longer listening to God, either; he will be doing nothing but prattle in the presence of God, too. This is the beginning of the death of the spiritual life, and in the end there will be nothing left but spiritual chatter and clerical condescension arrayed in pious words ... never really speaking to others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accursed be he who plays with the devil. [Ger., Verflucht wer mit dem Teufel spielt.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accursed be he who plays with the devil. [Ger., Verflucht wer mit dem Teufel spielt.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The great unity which true science seeks is found only by beginning with our knowledge of God, and coming down ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7223]]></link><description><![CDATA[The great unity which true science seeks is found only by beginning with our knowledge of God, and coming down from Him along the stream of causation to every fact and event that affects us.  .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because of the extensibility of the Scala InfoChannelÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â® platform we were able to integrate database information and the Vista software ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Because of the extensibility of the Scala InfoChannelÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â® platform we were able to integrate database information and the Vista software system into a custom cinema experience unique in New Zealand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's a' your jargon o' your schools, Your Latin names for horns and stools;  If honest nature made you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58731]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's a' your jargon o' your schools, Your Latin names for horns and stools;  If honest nature made you fools.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought of the (Academy) bus, but I don't know what their prices are.
