This is plainly what has happened to many otherwise intelligent people. Over the years I have had hundreds of conversations with people, many of them of higher intellectual calibre than my own, who quite obviously had no idea of what Christianity is really about. I was in no case trying to catch them out: I was simply and gently trying to find out what they knew about the New Testament. My conclusion was that they knew virtually nothing. This I find pathetic and somewhat horrifying. It means that the most important Event in human history is politely and quietly bypassed. For it is not as though the evidence had been examined and found unconvincing: it had simply never been examined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The 'outsider' who knows nothing of the mixture of tradition, conviction, honest difference, and hidden resentment, that lies behind the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7682]]></link><description><![CDATA[The 'outsider' who knows nothing of the mixture of tradition, conviction, honest difference, and hidden resentment, that lies behind the divisions of the Christian Church sees clearly the advantage of a united Christian front and cannot see why the Churches cannot 'get together'. The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today I have grown taller from walking with the trees. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today I have grown taller from walking with the trees.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[That could be the situation throughout the game, but Razorbacks defensive backs coach Bobby Allen said the defense expects to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30343]]></link><description><![CDATA[[That could be the situation throughout the game, but Razorbacks defensive backs coach Bobby Allen said the defense expects to keep its usual scheme.] We match up our corners vs. wide receivers in everything we do.
