To me, at least, this is a thoroughly unsound argument, for Christ did not come into the world to bring men "specialized activity," but life, fuller and more satisfying than it had been ever before. If the churches have made Christianity appear to be some kind of specialized spiritual performance so much the worse for them. The real purpose of Christ, the real relevance of the Gospel, is surely to enable men to live together as sons of God. Human beings, like children, love to have secrets, love to be "in the know." But the Christian religion was never meant to be a secret recipe for living, held by a few. It is Good News for all mankind and, because it is that, the more clearly and intelligibly it can be presented, the more faithfully it is following its Master's purpose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Biography is the only true history ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4218]]></link><description><![CDATA[Biography is the only true history]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of David, Bishop of Menevia, Patron of Wales, c.601  The scandal of the Bible does not lie so ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6441]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of David, Bishop of Menevia, Patron of Wales, c.601  The scandal of the Bible does not lie so much in its claim to record the Word of God, as in its insistence that the Word of God is to be heard in a particular historical happening, in a particular locality -- and only there. To put it in a provocative manner: the Bible is theology. It is historical theology. It can reveal its meaning only to those who regard it as the Word of God, and are able to preserve a strict confidence in the universal significance of particular historical occasions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An agreement is a kind of debt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1927]]></link><description><![CDATA[An agreement is a kind of debt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blood alone moves the wheels of history. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4348]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blood alone moves the wheels of history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4348</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The State, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social.

It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him.
