Interesting.

If they found the Higgs particle, it would be a really, really big deal!

This, he argued, must be due to a field which stuck to particles as they passed through it and made them heavy. If this had not happened, matter would have floated free in space and stars and planets would never have formed.
I believe this field is called "gravity". Now, where's my Nobel prize?

But the main thing that needs to be pointed out is that this new accelerator has cost a bazillion Euros to build, so of COURSE they’ll be suggesting that it may find God.
(In a particle, no less)
Otherwise they blow their cover.

A big deal that would just lead to more questions.

And if they don’t find the Higgs particle, it will be an even bigger deal.

Higgs is just tooting his own horn, it's all about money anyway. t=dKE=m=(W>P or WP and decel = W>P]. Thus "time" is a quantum movie because of the temporary imbalance between the 2 great languages of complementarity, the wave-particle duality. not-t=PE=M=(W=P) is the other formula. You can prove this quite easily : demonstrate a time event that is NOT a kinetic energy event at some rate. Or ask higgs to do it...

And if they dont find the Higgs particle, it will be an even bigger deal. Very much agreed. I think they will find it from what I know. Hopefully, they'll find more.

May the Force be with you?

Or something to that effect. :)

gives mass to the universe and makes life possible
Look out the window Mr. Higgs, do you see creation, every creation has a creator, and our Heavenly Creator is the one Who gives mass to the universe and makes live possible. I rest my case.

Most physicists dislike the term “God Particle” and don’t use it. However the MSM is infatuated with it and never miss an opportunity to us it.
To: garylmoore
So should we shut down all science and stare aimlessly out the window regarding every unanswered question?
To: Nachoman
The Higgs field and gravity are two different things though related in some way.

Col 1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
Col 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
Col 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
There’s your “boson” Mr. Higgs! Right there in verse 17. The Lord Jesus Christ created it all and He is holding it all together.

God is a particle, the Godon. When the Godon is discovered, all debate and myths regarding creation will be laid to rest. [/sarc]

That begs the question about the creator of the Heavenly Creator. A spontaneous creation theory as to the origin of the Heavely Creator does not answer the question, just as saying the Heavenly Creator existed from t= - infinity to t= + infinity does not. Saying a Heavenly Creator created everything is avoiding the question.
Lest there be any doubt I am not suggesting we are not the result of creation, I believe we are. But there are still many unanswered questions.
