  • The Muppets Meet Murderbot

    Thanks to ‘s reaction to my regular “Churchylizing” away message for Sunday mornings, the following t-shirt idea popped into my head. However, I’m not sure on the proper way to art it up, since I haven’t taken chemistry in 7 years.

    First, we have a quotation from John 1 “In the beginning was the Word”; then we have a simple molecular diagram of an amino acid, H2NCHRCOOH, but with the R group replaced with the text (probably in a cheesy overwrought gothic font) “Jesus”.

    I’m trying to decide whether to do an L or R molecule… I think it would look better for the R group text to be flowing to the right, at the top of the molecule (so the carboxyl group would be pointing left, and the amine group would be at the bottom right).

    So, is the joke funny at all? I find it amusing, but I wonder if it’s just stupid, or if too many people won’t get it, or think it blasphemous or something. The point is to get across the idea that you can believe in a creator god but also accept the scientific explanation for the origins of life on Earth.

    I love this little gentleman.

    We were wandering the neighborhood to see light displays and ended up at Kerry Park’s iconic view.
