This is not a specially religious mistake. We think of supernaturalism when faith is mentioned, but the naturalistic description of the world also operates on assumptions that require a faith as robust as does the most soaring mysticism. The usual efforts to skirt faith beg all the questions there are. A psychiatrist, for instance, who points out to you that you believe in God the Father because you need a father, or that you became a missionary to expiate your guilt feelings, may be quite correct, but he has not touched on the prior question as to whether there is, in fact, a cosmic father figure who is the archetype of all other fathers, or whether there is an evangel worth spending your life promulgating.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was too bad 'cause he sat with the favorites for a really long time.

The old prophets, when they would describe things emphatically, did not only draw parables from things which offered themselves, as from the rent of a garment, ... from the vessels of a potter, ... but also, when such objects were wanting, they supplied them by their own actions, as by rending a garment, ... by shooting, ... etc. By such types the prophets loved to speak. And Christ, being endued with a nobler prophet spirit than the rest, excelled also in this kind of speaking, yet so as not to speak by His own actions -- [which would have been] less grave and decent -- but to turn into parables such things as offered themselves. On occasion of the harvest approaching, He admonishes His disciples once and again of the spiritual harvest. Seeing the lilies of the field, He admonishes His disciples about clothing. In allusion to the present season of fruits, He admonishes His disciples about knowing men by their fruits. In the time of the Passover, when trees put forth their leaves, He bids His disciples, "learn a parable from the fig-tree".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He alone is an acute observer, who can observe minutely without being observed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44792]]></link><description><![CDATA[He alone is an acute observer, who can observe minutely without being observed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most powerful force in the universe is compound interest ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22947]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most powerful force in the universe is compound interest]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Young children and chickens would ever be eating. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2911]]></link><description><![CDATA[Young children and chickens would ever be eating.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life begins at 40 -- but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1779]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life begins at 40 -- but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story to the same person, three or four times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You have to kiss a lot of toads before you find a handsome prince. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53400]]></link><description><![CDATA[You have to kiss a lot of toads before you find a handsome prince.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66862]]></link><description><![CDATA[You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66862</guid></item></channel></rss>
