We see more clearly than often has been the case that ecclesiology and christology are one. The ekklesia, the community of believers, has as its first and foremost qualification that it is that community which, as community, belongs to Christ and is in Christ, and as such is the sphere of God's salvation, redemption, and reconciliation, and of Christ's rulership. This is the archetypal reality of the Church. To see and seize this essential point is a great blessing. This blessing, however, could as well become a curse, if it remained a theme of theological meditation and self-contemplation. This new knowledge is not real knowledge if it is not accompanied by a horror about the alienation of the empirical Church from its own fundamental reality and by a deep longing for a tangible manifestation of the Church's true nature. This horror and this longing are the deeper motives which are operating in many of the events and passionate discussions around the place and responsibility of the laity as an organic part of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real reason for comedy is to hide the pain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20091]]></link><description><![CDATA[The real reason for comedy is to hide the pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Form'd by thy converse, happily steer From grave to gay, from lively to severe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10102]]></link><description><![CDATA[Form'd by thy converse, happily steer From grave to gay, from lively to severe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are risks and costs to a program of action, but they are far lessthan the long-range risks and costs ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21145]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are risks and costs to a program of action, but they are far lessthan the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Right now, [our] leading indicators clearly show that the U.S. economy is in a window of vulnerability.

They, too, stress the leap of faith and make irrationality almost a principle, dismissing the serious questions of seeking modern men as intellectual smoke-screens or diversions to conceal deeper personal problems. All this masks a desperate intellectual insecurity, barely disguised by the surrounding hedge of taboos to preserve purity. The strident intolerance of much guilt-driven evangelism betrays the same insecurity. In these circles, much that is taught has to be unlearned in the wider school of life, and it is not surprising that universities are littered with dropouts from such groups. Their non-rational, subjective faith is cruelly punctured by varsity-level questions, and many manage to survive only by resorting to a severely schizophrenic faith which they hold to be true religiously but not intellectually, historically, or scientifically.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't suddenly get Jedi powers by upgrading.
