If there's a better example of "Professing themselves to be wise they become fools" you would be hard pressed to find it.

Ignorant arrogance at its best.

And who created the laws of physics?

Old news.

I wonder if he believe HE created it all.

Okay Steve, who created the laws of physics? Or did they just write themselves?

God did not create the universe, says Hawking

Hawking was not there and does not know what he is talking about, says God.

LONDON (Reuters) – God did not create the universe and the "Big Bang" was an inevitable consequence of the laws of physics, the eminent British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking argues in a new book.

The "Big Bang(TM)" idea is bad physics and bad theology rolled into a package. Having all the mass of the universe collapsed to a point would be the mother of all black holes; nothing would ever "bang" its way out of that. Likewise for a supposedly omniscient and omnipotent God to suddenly decide it would be cool to create a universe, 6K or 17B years ago it doesn't matter, while the idea had never occurred to him previously, is basically idiotic.

Proof, Hawking, where’s your proof?

God did not create “man made global warming” either. So has Hawking admitted science is a politically and socially corrupt by gov. money? Much of it is. More than most would ever dream. Work at NIH for a decade...

The “big bang” was supposed to be the beginning of it all, so the “big bang” can not be a consequence of anything.

Inevitable consequence of physics? So who created the original matter/energy of the big bang?

This stuff is complicated and inscrutable; how would any mortal be able to refute or confirm it?

What if he said, “The universe came into being because two squirrels stood too close to each other, their tails caught on fire, and poof the Big Bang happened. Double-check the math and it’ll prove it’s true”.

Who’s going to go up to him and say, “Oops Mr. Hawking, you accidentally divided everything by zero and it played havoc with the rest of the equation”.

The reality is he can say anything he wants, however faith-based it may or may not be, and the world will take him seriously.

Until someone smarter than he is comes along and checks the math and discovers that he really did divide everything by zero.

The beauty of this most fundamental of arguments, is that supremely educated, celebrated astrophysicist Stephen Hawking has as much credibility as does the nearest illiterate ditch digger.

Just the way God intended.....

Pity Steve. You could have shed that body and had a perfect eternal body at death. Now you’ll prolly be stuck in that chair in a sweltering heat for all eternity. Theres still time though.

Exactly. Who says something like this but someone with a super ego.

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understoond by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse'" Romans 1:20

The Final Question was "Can Entropy be Reversed?"

When the Universe began to unwind Multivac carried humanity into another dimension and pondered the "Final Question?"

At last Multivac knew the answer and proclaimed,

LET THERE BE LIGHT!
