It may be that today the philosopher is honouring the Name af God when he insists that we should know what we mean when we utter our religious language and that we should be ready to have that meaning tested. It may be that other philosophers hallow the Name when they refuse to allow us to withdraw it to some supernatural realm, but insist on wrestling with the unknown God in the agony and joy of existence, crying with Jacob, "Tell me, I pray thee, thy Name." And is not the scientist honouring the Name when he patiently and obediently follows where the evidence leads? Or the social scientist when he asks us to understand what is before we begin pronouncing what ought to be? God does not spend all His time in Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The initiative is simple and straight forward.

Enacting it doesn’t give them power. Enacting it gives them lives that are satisfying and meaningful to them. This is what you’ll find if you go among them. They’re not seething with discontent and rebellion, not incessantly wrangling over what should be allowed and what forbidden, not forever accusing each other of not living the right way, not living in terror of each other not going crazy because their lives seem empty and pointless, not having to stupefy themselves with drugs to get through the days, not having a new religion every week to give them something to hold on to, not forever searching for something to do or something to believe in that will make lives worth living. And – I repeat – this is not because they live close to nature or have no formal government or because they’re innately noble. This is simply because they’re enacting a story that works well for people – a story that worked well for three million years and that still works well where the Takers haven’t yet managed to stamp it out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I got off the soap I got offered all these, you know, 'women in jeopardy' -- I call them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23213]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I got off the soap I got offered all these, you know, 'women in jeopardy' -- I call them 'disease of the week' movies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or wherefore trace, from what slight cause Its source one tyrant passion draws,  Till mastering all within. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51099]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or wherefore trace, from what slight cause Its source one tyrant passion draws,  Till mastering all within.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Matthias the Apostle   I shall not value his prayers at all, be he never so earnest ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Matthias the Apostle   I shall not value his prayers at all, be he never so earnest and frequent in them, who gives not alms according to his ability.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just once I would like to persuade the audience not to wear any article of blue denim.

There is an apparent contradiction here, for how can we abide, and yet advance? It is a paradox, like much else in scripture; but Christian experience proves it true. Those make the best progress in religion who hold fast by the faith once for all delivered to the saints, and not those who drift away from their moorings, rudderless upon a sea of doubt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7103</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah, savage company; but in the church With saints, and in the taverns with the gluttons. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9112]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah, savage company; but in the church With saints, and in the taverns with the gluttons.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9112</guid></item></channel></rss>
