Many, indeed, will unreservedly declare, and more will hint, the opinion that the difference between the qualities above mentioned and religion, is rather a verbal or logical, than a real and essential difference; for in truth, what are they but religion in substance if not in name? Is it not the great end of religion, and, in particular, the glory of Christianity, to extinguish the malignant passions; to curb the violence, to control the appetites, and to smooth the asperities of man; to make us compassionate and kind, and forgiving one to another; to make us good husbands, good fathers, good friends; and to render us active and useful in the discharge of the relative social and civil duties? We do not deny that, in the general mass of society, and particularly in the lower orders, such conduct and tempers can not be diffused and maintained by any other medium than that of religion. But if the end be effected, surely it is only an unnecessary refinement to dispute about the means. It is even to forget your own principles; and to refuse its just place to solid, practical virtue, while you assign too high a value to speculative opinions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8131</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just don't know how you make people get along, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39712]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just don't know how you make people get along,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All those involved in the firebombing of Tokyo.. were war criminalsinterviews recorded in the movie The Fogof War.. (the firebombing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10223]]></link><description><![CDATA[All those involved in the firebombing of Tokyo.. were war criminalsinterviews recorded in the movie The Fogof War.. (the firebombing of Tokyo occurred before the atom bombs..100,000 civilians died in one night from American bombs..500,000 altogether over several days say some).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45168]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Focus on remedies, not faults. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16301]]></link><description><![CDATA[Focus on remedies, not faults.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5121]]></link><description><![CDATA[In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51389]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We take a lot of pride in that.
