Those who would give a quick, easy or confident answer to this question have failed to understand it. It cannot even be seriously considered without a profound awareness of the extent to which Christian ideas have lost their hold over, or faded from the consciousness of, large sections of the population; of the far-reaching changes that would be called for in the structure, institutions and activities of existing society, which is in many of its features a complete denial of the Christian understanding of the meaning and end of man's existence; and of the stupendous and costly spiritual, moral, and intellectual effort that any genuine attempt to order national life in accordance with the Christian understanding of life would demand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7190</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To have doubted one's own first principles is the mark of a civilized man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12781]]></link><description><![CDATA[To have doubted one's own first principles is the mark of a civilized man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who carries a cat by the tail is getting experience that will always be helpful.

Life is supplied with a basic adequacy... The conscious mind determines the actions, the unconscious mind determines the reactions; and the reactions are just as important as the actions. Many Christians are Christians in their actions -- they don't lie, steal, commit adultery, or get drunk; but they react badly to what happens to them: they react in anger, bad temper, self-pity, jealousy, and envy... When the depths are upheld by the Holy Spirit, then the reaction is Christian.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For comic writers charge Socrates with making the worse appear the better reason. [Lat., Nam et Socrati objiciunt comici, docere ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53109]]></link><description><![CDATA[For comic writers charge Socrates with making the worse appear the better reason. [Lat., Nam et Socrati objiciunt comici, docere eum quomodo pejorem causam meliorem faciat.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65464]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is not in our circumstance but in ourselves.
