		<description><![CDATA[When studying today, I came across an irony contained in one approach of our friends across the pond. In Europe, the European Patent Convention allows patent offices and courts to exclude inventions that offend notions of morality from patenting. The common requirement is demonstrated in the TRIPS Agreement: Members may exclude from patentability inventions, the [...]]]></description>

The lips that had whispered prayers of distress and grief now filled the air with wondrous praise, for Jesus the Christ, the Son of the living God&#8230; Each of us will have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don&#8217;t judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone&#8217;s differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone who has let us down; or resisting the impulse [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the great things about law school, at least at BYU, is the vast number of highly intellectual, thought provoking guest speakers and events that come to visit the law school. I&#8217;d be tempted to say that most of the learning that I&#8217;ve experienced in law school has come as I&#8217;ve participated regularly in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished reading Grace Works the other day. Written by my favorite BYU Religion Professor, Robert Millet, it addresses the essential but nuanced relationship between grace and works. Latter-day saints tend to place more emphasis on works and less on grace, but the reality is that we are saved by grace alone. However, everyone who [...]]]></description>
