To justify Christianity because it provides a foundation of morality, instead of showing the necessity of Christian morality from the truth of Christianity, is a very dangerous inversion; and we may reflect that a good deal of the attention of totalitarian states has been devoted with a steadfastness of purpose not always found in democracies, to providing their national life with a foundation of morality -- the wrong kind, perhaps, but a good deal more of it. It is not enthusiasm, but dogma, that differentiates a Christian from a pagan society.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Ken, Bishop of Bath & Wells, Hymnographer, 1711  [The] doctrine of [inevitable] progress sustained our fathers ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6477]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Ken, Bishop of Bath & Wells, Hymnographer, 1711  [The] doctrine of [inevitable] progress sustained our fathers in the carrying of capitalistic democratic culture to most parts of the globe. Its core was the conviction that, in thus extending the range of western liberal culture and developing its assumptions, they were in effect establishing on earth that which would grow into the kingdom of God. Some put it sharply but un-Biblically: "building the kingdom"; others, of a more secular turn of mind, echoed J. A. Symonds' hymn, "These Things Shall Be". That whole view exists today only as debris, for it has foundered on the rocks, not so much of human sin, as of the contradictions and complexities of the very western culture that was the substance of its belief.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have hardly ever known a mathematician who was able to reason. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52908]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have hardly ever known a mathematician who was able to reason.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nay then, let the devil wear black, for I'll have a suit of sables. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12167]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nay then, let the devil wear black, for I'll have a suit of sables.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12167</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we can't figure something out in three weeks, we probably shouldn't bother. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9891]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we can't figure something out in three weeks, we probably shouldn't bother.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagination is more important than knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1462]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imagination is more important than knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We didn't want 5 a.m. wakeup calls with a front loader moving in front of someone's driveway. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34543]]></link><description><![CDATA[We didn't want 5 a.m. wakeup calls with a front loader moving in front of someone's driveway.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[UGLINESS, n.
