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[I've grown certain that the root of all fear is that we've been forced to deny who we are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20295]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've grown certain that the root of all fear is that we've been forced to deny who we are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20295</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Income and sales taxes are both collected in dribs and drabs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30168]]></link><description><![CDATA[Income and sales taxes are both collected in dribs and drabs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Consultants have credibility because they are not dumb enough to work at your company ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9130]]></link><description><![CDATA[Consultants have credibility because they are not dumb enough to work at your company]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My suit has nothing to do with the assault, or battery, or poisoning, but is about three goats, which, I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23508]]></link><description><![CDATA[My suit has nothing to do with the assault, or battery, or poisoning, but is about three goats, which, I complain, have been stolen by my neighbor.

Every principle of selection, every separation connected with it that is not necessitated quite objectively by common work, local conditions, or family connections is of the greatest danger to a Christian community. When the way of intellectual or spiritual selection is taken, the human element always insinuates itself and robs the fellowship of its spiritual power and its effectiveness for the Church, and drives it into sectarianism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey "people."
