It is interesting to note that in the first centuries of the Christian era many demoniacal phenomena appeared in countries in the course of being converted from idolatry to Christianity. The same is true of pagan civilisation today. In my research into the fourth century, I was surprised to find a great recrudescence of magical practices at the very moment when Roman civilization under Constantine was about to be snatched away bodily from paganism and enter... into the kingdom of the Son; at that time, all the rites of sorcery took on an incredible virulence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everyone is necessarily the hero of his own life story. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19251]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everyone is necessarily the hero of his own life story.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to be a writer-stop talking about it and sit down and write!. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22194]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want to be a writer-stop talking about it and sit down and write!.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What they're doing here in Rock Star:INXS is revolutionary.

It has been the largest single factor in combating, on a world-wide scale, such ancient foes of man as war, famine, and the exploitation of one race by another. More than any other religion, it has made for the dignity of human personality. This it has done by a power inherent within it of lifting lives from selfishness, spiritual mediocrity, and moral defeat and disintegration, to unselfish achievement and contagious moral and spiritual power and by the high value which it set upon every human soul through the possibilities which it held out of endless growth in fellowship with the eternal God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Schools have quickly closed and thousands of people carrying machetes, some with guns, are rushing toward the military barracks.

Simone Weil  August 18, 2000   My biological work convinced me that the One who was declared dead by Nietzsche, and silent by Sartre, actually is very much alive and speaking to us through all things.  ... C. J. Briejèr, letter to Rachel Carson August 19, 2000   The Christian cell in a factory or a professional circle, funding its own activities, deciding its own pattern of work, studying the Bible and perhaps celebrating the Lord's supper as an entity on its own, comes very much closer to Independency as Robert Browne saw it than the unholy isolationism of a prosperous suburban church, with 200 members who scarcely know each other by sight. If a sizable proportion of the Free Church ministry were enabled to become itinerant once again -- not necessarily itinerant in the geographical sense, but itinerant in the complex mazes of contemporary society, fathers in God to Christian organisms evolved by the lay men and women who spend their lives in these mazes -- new heart would be put into both ministry and laity, and incidentally, new impetus given to the search for Christian unity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23412]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not need; they have smaller families.
