We must do it together -- or be cast aside together, and God in his absolute freedom goes on by other means to use His Church in hastening His Kingdom.  ...Howard Hewlett Clark    January 31, 1998  Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  The axioms of reason are non-demonstrable assumptions. Why should faith not be granted the same privilege? The denial of the truths of faith is, in the last analysis, no less a faith than faith itself, for it rests on personal assumptions which are apart from scientific necessity. In other words, as the truth of reason carries its own evidence, so also with faith. To the mind to whom the axioms of reason are not self-evident, they cannot be proven. So also in the case of faith: for the mind that is not enlightened by faith, the evidence of faith is ridiculous. But for the man whose eyes have been enlightened by the Spirit, faith has its proper evidence, though different from that of reason. The only sufficient ground of faith is the authority of God Himself as he addresses me in His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that plaies his mony ought not to value it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49386]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that plaies his mony ought not to value it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49386</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Almost everyone who has read history in a more than casual manner knows that when the great figure of God ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56888]]></link><description><![CDATA[Almost everyone who has read history in a more than casual manner knows that when the great figure of God appears in a controversy, the shooting cannot be far off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56888</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There has been some disappointment over hedge-fund performance in general, but investors are still after that upside potential - a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40728]]></link><description><![CDATA[There has been some disappointment over hedge-fund performance in general, but investors are still after that upside potential - a star manager to hit a home run for them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Information is not knowledge, knowledge is not wisdom, wisdom is not truth, truth is not beauty, beauty is not love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25786]]></link><description><![CDATA[Information is not knowledge, knowledge is not wisdom, wisdom is not truth, truth is not beauty, beauty is not love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it's here to stay, but there are problems to be ironed out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40258]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think it's here to stay, but there are problems to be ironed out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweet Spring, full of sweet dayes and roses, A box where sweets compacted lie,  My musick shows ye have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57795]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sweet Spring, full of sweet dayes and roses, A box where sweets compacted lie,  My musick shows ye have your closes,   And all must die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Passion and strife bow down the mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Passion and strife bow down the mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18288]]></link><description><![CDATA[Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Argentina in particular you have seen a pickup in volatility over the last couple of months, and it has ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34537]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Argentina in particular you have seen a pickup in volatility over the last couple of months, and it has to do with the fact that it has higher yields available and longer duration and makes it prone to volatility.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Betwixt the devil and the deep sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Betwixt the devil and the deep sea.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6061</guid></item></channel></rss>
