As a plain matter of fact, religion in this country is generally regarded as a tolerated pastime for such people as happen to like to indulge in occasional godly exercises -- as a strictly private matter in an increasingly close-knit and socially acting society -- in other words, as something that does not count. I should like to see the Church recognize that it has been pushed into the realm of the non-essentials, and to persuade it to fight like fury for the right and the duty to bring every act of America and Americans before the bar of God's judgment. [Christian leaders] are making valiant claim to such a right and duty; but the great mass of Church members are content to regard the Church as a conglomerate of private culture clubs, nice for christenings, weddings and funerals. Most Church members readily agree with the unchurched majority that it is not the proper business of the Church to criticize America or Americans.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel an autumnal Saturday, no matter how beautiful, is wasted if it doesn't find me sitting in on a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57744]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel an autumnal Saturday, no matter how beautiful, is wasted if it doesn't find me sitting in on a football game.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57744</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54054]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It feels good to be able to contribute on a senior-dominated team.
