Hamblin 19: \u00a0Place Names (Emblem Glyphs)<\/a><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just for the record: \u00a0I\u2019m more and more unimpressed with Professor Jenkins, both as regards his snarky tone and as regards substance, where he\u2019s clearly out of his element.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
It seems to me painfully obvious that, before one attempts to evaluate the state of the evidence regarding the claimed antiquity of the Book of Mormon, one first needs to establish the standards against which proposed relevant evidence should be evaluated.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMeasure twice, cut once,\u201d as it were.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The \u201cpractical man,\u201d impatient with those who want to think things through before undertaking a big task, often launches himself headlong into misconceived catastrophes. \u00a0In scholarship no less frequently than in other areas.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Professor Hamblin is precisely right in seeking methodological clarity and the establishment of relevant benchmarks. \u00a0To do otherwise would be to try to generate reliable data with uncalibrated instruments. \u00a0To weigh oneself on a scale with an uncertain zero-balance. \u00a0(\u201cWow! \u00a0I\u2019ve lost fifteen pounds since yesterday!<\/em>\u201c)<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
