If he does accept the latter, then the results of his research will in all probability contradict the beliefs of the Church, but this is because he has begged the question from the start. In examining, for instance, the evidence for the virginal conception [of Jesus], if he begins with the presupposition that such an event is impossible he will end with the same conclusion; if he begins with the presupposition that it is possible he may end with the conclusion that the evidence for it is good or that it is bad or that it is inconclusive. This is as far as scholarship can take him. The Christian will accept the virginal conception as part of the Church's faith. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wouldn't have turned out the way I was if I didn't have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53146]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wouldn't have turned out the way I was if I didn't have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53146</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man was made at the end of the week's work when God was tired. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10573]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man was made at the end of the week's work when God was tired.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tell the American people solemnly that the United States will never survive as a happy and fertile oasis of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12208]]></link><description><![CDATA[I tell the American people solemnly that the United States will never survive as a happy and fertile oasis of liberty surrounded by a cruel desert of dictatorship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we have to do, what at any rate it is our duty to do, is to revive the old ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63999]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we have to do, what at any rate it is our duty to do, is to revive the old art of Lying.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble.
