When this position is expressed, it must be attacked directly and unapologetically, because it represents a genuine evil, ... the idolatry of bricks and mortar, a heresy specifically undermined by the Apostle Paul in Athens when he said, "The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by man" (Acts 17:24). The notion that it is perfectly all right to sell a New Testament in the department store on Monday, but that it is wrong to sell it in the meetinghouse on Sunday, represents a confusion so great that it is truly appalling. As Christians, we believe in the Real Presence, but it is a severe denial of the divine power to claim that this Presence is limited geographically. If, in a building dedicated to worship, a seeker buys a book on Sunday morning and his life is deepened in consequence, the only important thing to say is that the Gospel has thereby been preached, and this is one of the major tasks of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3701]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has a why to live can bear almost any how. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25031]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Patriotism is a pernicious, psychopathic form of idiocy ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45758]]></link><description><![CDATA[Patriotism is a pernicious, psychopathic form of idiocy]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45758</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discontent does not invariably create a desire for change.
