It is surely life itself that makes against belief in most cases. It is the contradiction in real life between any image of God as good -- whether God is "above", "beneath", or "within" -- that makes men atheists. Yet how few books and how few sermons touch on this basic problem! Our theological libraries are crammed with books devoted to every aspect of textual and higher criticism of the Bible; but of genuine theological thinking about the things which drive religion from men's hearts, there is appallingly little to be found. The archaeology of Christian origins seems largely to have replaced genuine theology.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The water owns a power Divine, And conscious blushes into wine;  Its very nature changed displays   The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27559]]></link><description><![CDATA[The water owns a power Divine, And conscious blushes into wine;  Its very nature changed displays   The power Divine that it obeys.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was really happy that the girls didn't quit (when they got down).
