"Good work"

I've been at the Gordon Conference on Phosphorylation & G-Protein Mediated Signaling Networks all week. Although maybe only one of the ~six people who read this blog will have any idea what that title means, it is actually quite and important conference in my field. My advisor presented my data the other day and then I presented a poster on Monday and Tuesday. I had lots of people come by and talk to me about my results. In fact, I was talking for most of the two hours each day. I think that it was well received. This morning as I was walking back from breakfast a fairly well respected leader in G protein signaling, whom I have not met personally, walked by me and said, "Good work." I have to admit that this put a bit of spring in my step.

Mark Roberts on Hitchens

Mark Roberts is now posting a series of blog entries detailing errors, distortions and exaggerations from Christopher Hitchen's Book. I could think of additional arguments to some of the ones that he lists, which are based upon my faith and understanding of the gospel, but Roberts pretty well reveals Hitchens for what he is.

Maybe Hitchens will do us all a favor and ask for a sign

I just listened to a debate about the existence of God and the evils of religion on the Hugh Hewitt show. This debate was between between Christopher Hitchen's, journalist and author of "God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything," and Dr. Mark Roberts, evangelical pastor and author of "Can We Trust The Gospels?" I also recently heard a similar, but less lengthy, debate between Dennis Prager and Mr. Hitchens. Hitchen's is not only an atheist but also a a very strong, almost militant sounding, anti-religious bigot. Although he has made a number of anti-Mormon statements, mostly inspired by Mitt Romney, he seems to despise all religions equally.

As I listened to Mr. Htichen's arguments against religion and a belief in God, or should I say his smoke and mirror arguments, I was reminded of a number of individuals in the Book of Mormon. The first, Sherem, went about preaching against the doctrine of Christ and was described in Jacob 7:4 as follows.

And he was learned, that he had a perfect knowledge of the language of the people; wherefore, he could use much flattery, and much power of speech, according to the power of the devil.

Mr. Hitchen's was educated at Oxford and is a very articulate speaker. His magniloquent speaking style and staccato use of literary quotes and half-truths can be very persuasive if one does not look closely at what he is saying. He has a way of using only partial-facts to support his thesis. For instance, during the Hugh Hewitt debate he notes that Hitler was born into the Catholic church and never denounced this faith, but dissembles about the truth that Hitler's actions were really more representative of his pagen views and likely his psychosis. The fact that his parents were Catholic does not mean that the teachings of the Catholic religion led him to become what he was or to do the things that he did. Mr. Hitchen's arguments also reminded me of Zeezrom who tried to trap Alma and Amulek by asking them questions and then misstating and warping their responses.

Finally, while istening to this debate I was minded of Korihor who said, in Alma 30:

O ye that are bound down under a foolish and a vain hope, why do ye yoke yourselves with such foolish things? Why do ye look for a Christ? For no man can know of anything which is to come. Behold, these things which ye call prophecies, which ye say are handed down by holy prophets, behold, they are foolish traditions of your fathers. How do ye know of their surety? Behold, ye cannot know of things which ye do not see; therefore ye cannot know that there shall be a Christ. Ye look forward and say that ye see a remission of your sins. But behold, it is the effect of a frenzied mind; and this derangement of your minds comes because of the traditions of your fathers, which lead you away into a belief of things which are not so.

Of course, Korihor went on to ask the prophet Alma for a sign of the existence of God and wasn't very happy about the results of his request. Maybe if we are lucky, Christopher Hitchens will also run into a prophet and ask for a sign. Unfortunately, many people today are easily persuaded to evil and the damage done by just one Mr. Hitchens would have lasting effects even if he were no longer able to continue in his anti-religious ministry, much like the priestcraft of Nehor persisted long after his death.

Spider-man III for free

Last night I went out with the Old Married Man's Club. We intended to see the movie Disturbia, however, upon arrival at the cinema we found out that the projector for this show was broken. The young man working the ticket booth informed us that he was supposed to try and convince us to see another one of their great films but if we could not be swayed then he was supposed to give us free passes to see Disturbia on another night. We had him get his manager and Brad used a little smooth talk to get us into Spider-man III at no charge. I can't say I was particularly impressed with the story line, but the movie is based on a comic book, after all.

New skill for Dec

Let me start by apologizing for taking some time off. Things have been very hectic at work and at home and it is really easy to get out of the habit of making time to type a few words about what is going on.

Last night I took Dec over to the nearby school, which, by the way, is not the school our kids go to. Our school district is a big believer in the idea of trying to make schools more equal by shipping kids all over the place, so our kids go to the 13th closest elementary school, which is only 10 miles from our house. Regardless, Dec and I drove a quarter mile so that he could practice riding a bike without training wheels in the local school's flat parking lot. I have tried a couple of other times to teach him how to ride a bike, but he isn't very patient when things don't go as he would like and so I didn't push the issue. Despite a few minor tumbles, he did very well last night and should now be able to peddle around the cul-de-sac at home. I have to admit that it is a bit saddening to see them growing up, especially considering that I'm being told in no uncertain terms that we are done expanding our family.

No wonder Science couldn't publish my paper

They've been busy publishing "serious" research on global climate change.

"The research, published in Science, identified changes in wind patterns caused by climate change as being the direct cause of the weakened ability to absorb carbon dioxide."

In other words, climate change is now causing further climate change. We should outlaw climate change to prevent it from further propagation.

Buried in the last few lines:

"The researchers accepted there were limits to the data available from the Southern Ocean and that “the magnitude of the CO2 sink is heavily disputed”. Professor Chris Rapley, director of BAS, said uncertaintities remained, but the findings were “a serious concern”."

Ignorant Democrat alert

I just had to post on this comment from an AP story about the Democrat's failure to cut off funding to our soldiers fighting in Iraq.

"How many more soldiers do we have to bury? How many more do we have to bring into our military and veterans hospitals? How many more thousands of innocent Iraqis have to die before we finally accept our responsibility to bring this war to an end?" asked Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois.

What an ignorant statement. Does he suppose that if the U.S. just puts its tail between its legs and runs away from Iraq that innocent Iraqis will stop dying? Last I check, the reason we are still in Iraq is to protect the innocent Iraqis. If we leave there will be a bloodbath.

Another example of why the Democrats are not capable of running our country.

After missing the ball, Dec's swing carried him all the way around.

Can is cast free

Can went to the doctor's yesterday and they finally took his cast off for good. The doctor said that he isn't allowed to jump or rough-house with his brothers. Good luck with that! Hopefully Nae can keep him off of the trampoline until it gets stronger. He walks a bit funny. He still point it out to the side like it was with the cast on. The doctor said that this should go away soon.

Rascally Stupidity prevails in the Country

"The Rascally Stupidity which now prevails in the Country at large is beyond all description."

"I despise my Countrymen, I wish I could say I was not born in America. I once gloried in it but am now ashamed of it."

"The Insults and Neglects which the Army have met with from the Country, Beggars all description. it must Go no farther, they can endure it no longer."

"... all this for my Cowardly Countrymen who flinch at the very time when their Exertions are wanted, and hold their Purse Strings as tho' they would Damn the World, rather than part with a Dollar to the Army."

Nope, these are not words written about the current Democratic leadership in Congress, but excerpts from a letter written by Colonel Ebenezer Huntington to his brother Andrew on July 7, 1780, during the Revolutionary War.
(I initially read some of these excerpts on the title page of "Rabble in Arms" by Kenneth Roberts and then found a transcript of the original letter on the web.)

Children are bad for the environment

The population control freaks have jumped onto the global warming bandwagon. From a recent article out of London,

"'Having large families should be frowned upon as an environmental misdemeanour in the same way as frequent long-haul flights, driving a big car and failing to reuse plastic bags', says a report to be published today by a green think tank."

"The decision to have children should be seen as a very big one and one that should take the environment into account."

"as a general guideline, couples should produce no more than two offspring.

Maybe we should all have a few more children.

Images - Dec in the outfield

Dec is having fun in the outfield. He must have been telling jokes with his friend out there. At least he is in the ready position and not playing with the grass.
