Large Hadron Collider speed-up stuns scientists

Scientists toiling away under the Alps have built a machine they have been trying like the dickens to get started. It's supposed to replicate the conditions at the beginning of the Universe and re-create the hypothesized Big Bang. All this in search of a little particle called the Higgs-Boson that is supposed to the be Universe's glue. Or explain mass. Or something. I wrote about it here on Oct 20,  here on Oct 24 and here on Nov 6. As you can see by my focus on this thing, I enjoy reading about the Large Hadron Collider and its Perils and Travails. It's a plucky machine.

So after The Baguette Incident that caused yet another slowdown of the start-up, the scientists started the massive machine (little pun there) up again. The last time it was gummed up, the scientists threw up their hands and said, sheesh, it's a future time traveler come back to prevent us from ruining the future! I am not making this up. Read about it here. Of his machine, one of the lead scientists said, "Well, one could even almost say that we have a model for God [...] that He rather hates Higgs particles, and attempts to avoid them." Whoa. I feel like I'm going to be smited just for reading such an audacious and blasphemous statement. Never mind saying it, and worse, believing it!

So they got it going yesterday though not at full speed. Apparently that takes a while to get it revved up and ready to smash the protons together. But the machine does have a lock-step start-up routine and the scientists did begin that sequence the other night. They created all sorts of nifty Power Point presentations to get ready to show the success of the initial start, and they went home to bed. Scientists get tired, you know.

But at midnight, they got called back! An emergency was happening. No, the machine was not slowed down like all the other times, it sped up! The "Quick restart of Big Bang machine stuns scientists". LOL. At a meeting early Saturday "they basically had to tear up the first few pages of their PowerPoint presentation which had outlined the procedures that they were planning to follow," he [one scientist] said. "That was all wrapped up by midnight. They are going through the paces really very fast." That is a tragedy, having to re-do all the PowerPoint slides. Scientists have enough to do without all the re-doing and tearing up.

Hmmm. Don't you just LOVE God? Just when you thought He may delay the thing from starting like He did all those other times, he speeds it up, stunning the scientists ... AGAIN!! As for end times, we know that in the last days "...perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth" (2 Timothy 3:1-7.)

The scientists in this experiment are blatantly denying God's power and ever learning yet not able to come to the truth. They are surely boasters and blasphemers ... and this machine is the modern version of the Tower of Babel. It is the true ivory tower, containing people inside who are always learning yet never able to come to the truth.
