Hawking is always newsworthy. I added the bold font and underlining.
Happy 4th to all.

I already had all of this solved the last universe we were all in, but somehow, the info keeps getting lost. ;)

"anthropic principle" hmmmm.. So the universe is uniquely oriented to allow life. (In addition to he cosmological constant, there are over ten constant numbers, for which a small change in any of them, would preclude life). Anthropomorphism is the poet's license to apply human qualities to a moon, a stream, an animal or tree. Seems to be a humanistic, secular bias here, I guess Hawking wants to be published as much as anybody else. If had called it the "genesis principle," even Mr. Hawking would be ostracized.
On the seventh day he rested, and it was good.

So the current universe must have "chosen" the histories that led to the "correct" value and the precise conditions that brought life into existence??? I meant to say the Current Universe. But now we're back where we started. Anybody who tries to teach this in the public schools is in for trouble from the ACLU and the rest of the atheistic Left.

Hawking and Hertog also say their model could be tested Any mechanical model could be tested. That doesn't add anything to the possibility that they are finally tuned into ultimate reality.

I'm curious...
I know Stephen Hawking is not a climatologist (duh), but doesn anyone know if he's ever weighed in on global warming?

Sounds like Hawking is taking a page from Robert Laughlin's book.
