Thanks for the post. It really captured my thoughts on Hawking, probably like a lot of people.

Stephan Hawking is dead.

His soul was lost.

He could not see past the big bang.

My God shows up at unexpected times to let me know he’s there and greze the skids for me though difficult times.

Stephan could never allow even the possibility of God.

You can never know God if you never believe.

So typical of the self righteous left.

Hawking’s last words should be - “I AM just land fill”. ...and he is. Sad.

we were humans in the hands of an angry universe.


The universe isn’t angry, just preoccupied.

Worse, Hawking was convinced that humanity was facing extinction. He once claimed that humans would have to abandon Earth in a century...He was equally fearful of artificial intelligence ... If humans or their machines weren’t the agents of our civilization’s demise, then Mother Nature would intervene..

Imagine what the media would say if Billy Graham or Rush Limbaugh said things like this.

Hawking was proof that brilliance in one field does not necessarily translate into common sense in others. Projecting one's personal fears about mortality onto the species says more about the speaker than the topics being espoused.

Presumably Stephen now has a wider perspective on these topics, starting with puzzlement over still having a perspective at all.

I’m eternally shallow so all I’ll say is that this will provoke Daniel Day-Lewis out of retirement to play him in a movie.

Hawkings was a fool. (Romans 1:20-22)

20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools

It’s funny how people who think it’s absurd that there could be a God who created everything, have no problem believing everything created itself.

His encroaching mortality without hope influenced his philosophy.

Stephen Hawking Developed An Odd Penchant For Doomsday Fearmongering Late In His Life

Well he was one of the smartest persons in history, but not in any practical sense that would enhance the life of Average Man.

As for fearmongering, the first law in the official Handbook of Effective Fearmongering is to make any forecast, estimate or extrapolation as far into the future as possible.
E.G., don't ever say the sun will go supernova and explode in ten thousand billion years; be modest and simply say 997,000.52877 billion years.

Successful fearmongring demands that there is never the remotes possibility that anyone who is alive will never be able to confirm or deny the claim.

Just make sure that the claim is in the future a minimum of 200% of the oldest confirmed human in existence.

Doomsday is what he was facing if he did not come to know Jesus and God which I fear he did not.

I don’t think Stevie was running with all of his oars in the water for the last decade.

Forgive my total ignorance on Hawking, but I know what Einstein did. I know what Oppenheimer did. I even know what Heller and Feinman did. But other than black hole theory’s and becoming a media whore like Neil deGrasse Tyson has become, what in the hell did he contribute of substance? I here nothing but liberal bullish!t with no backing

Not uncommon in the late stages of progressive disease to became delusional and/or paranoid. Has nothing to do with intelligence per se.

Look out the window as you fly across the USA on an airplane and becomes evident that there is plenty of room for more people.

I discounted all later statements under Hawking’s name because there is no way to verify they are actually his. His unnamed handlers issue statements and the press blithely prints them without any verification.
