In my view, that means to speak on the one hand metaphysically, and on the other individualistically. Neither of these is relevant to the Bible message or to the man of today. Is it not true to say that individualistic concern for personal salvation has almost completely left us all? Are we not really under the impression that there are more important things than bothering about such a matter? (Perhaps not more important than the matter itself, but more than bothering about it). I know it sounds pretty monstrous to say that. But is it not, at bottom, even Biblical?... It is not with the next world that we are concerned, but with this world as created and preserved and set subject to laws and atoned for and made new. What is above the world is, in the Gospel, intended to exist for this world -- I mean that not in the anthropocentric sense of liberal, pietistic, ethical theology, but in the Bible sense of the creation and of the incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[(Brookfield Academy) had trouble adjusting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37893]]></link><description><![CDATA[(Brookfield Academy) had trouble adjusting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37893</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47913]]></link><description><![CDATA[All I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I assert and believe to have demonstrated in this and earlier works is that following the finite there is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20818]]></link><description><![CDATA[What I assert and believe to have demonstrated in this and earlier works is that following the finite there is a transfinite (which one could also call the supra-finite), that is an unbounded ascending lader of definite modes, which by their nature are not finite but infinite, but which just like the finite can be determined by well-defined and distinguishable numbers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, 690  The peculiarity of ill temper is that it is the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, 690  The peculiarity of ill temper is that it is the vice of the virtuous. It is often the one blot on an otherwise noble character. You know men who are all but perfect, and women who would be entirely perfect, but for an easily ruffled, quick-tempered, or "touchy" disposition. This compatibility of ill temper with high moral character is one of the strangest and saddest problems of ethics... No form of vice -- not worldliness, not greed of gold, not drunkenness itself -- does more to unChristianize society than evil temper. For embittering life, for breaking up communities, for destroying the most sacred relationships, for devastating homes, for withering up men and women, for taking the bloom off of childhood -- in short, for sheer, gratuitous misery-producing power -- this influence stands alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took 25 years to de-list the peregrine falcon.
