Religion is what we (or he himself at a later moment) call his activity from outside.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since nothing we intend is ever faultless, and nothing we attempt everwithout eror, and nothing we achieve without some measure ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22165]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since nothing we intend is ever faultless, and nothing we attempt everwithout eror, and nothing we achieve without some measure of finitude andfallibility we call humanness, we are saved by forgiveness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22165</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are Christians of the best edition, all picked and culled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6168]]></link><description><![CDATA[You are Christians of the best edition, all picked and culled.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It’s a sorry statement about how broken Washington is that we could not take advantage of this unique and sad ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55094]]></link><description><![CDATA[It’s a sorry statement about how broken Washington is that we could not take advantage of this unique and sad moment in history and enact serious lobbying reform.
