Maybe he had a secret desire to be on “Celebrity Apprentice”. Of course it would have ended for him with a
“You’re fired”.

"...I hope for his sake hell has lots of ramps..."

That's very funny, tacky and lacking in class, so I'm totally going to use that line all day.

Thanks!

"...Goebels warming..."

Wait: Is that a phrase?

I going to steal that line also. It's double plus good.

Well, leftists who reject the association of “personal freedom/free market capitalism” are dogs, should be called out and not be given a free pass....

A few days ago the news reported that Hawking believed he knew what had happened "before the dawn of time".

Now he has met the Creator of time itself.

Never liked Hawking. Too Liberal.
Never liked Einstein either. Arrogant a$$hole.
After Oliver Heaviside corrected Maxwell’s equations due to incorrect assumptions on the part of Maxwell, Einstein refused to credit Heaviside for this work and insisted on calling them Maxwell’s Equations, because Heaviside was not drgreed from a university. Heaviside was poor and could not afford to go to college and was self taught. Thus, no degree, so no credit for brilliant work. Give the credit to the idiot who got it wrong.

Stephen Hawking refused to believe in God till the end of his life.

Up to just this month, he was still arguing that the universe came from nothing.

He was used as something to be seen with and photographed with.

Pathetic-——and sad.

In his book The Grand Design, Hawking’s attempt to deny God mandated that he suspend at least sixty percent of his intellectual ability.

Good riddance.

And what's YOUR belief in God and Christ?

I suspect that Stephen Hawking has learned a lot and NOW realizes how wrong he was. “But you don’t exist” isn’t a good defense when facing eternal judgement.

Many people who are extremely intelligent in certain areas are retarded in others.

you can’t imagine having all your needs taken care of because you are just an intellect trapped in a defective shell of a body ( includes your bathroom needs) and being like that for 50 years, relying on assistance?

I give him a pass I don’t give guys like Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson who have no good reason to be leftist @$$holes.

Stephen Hawking to God.. “wow, that IS the way my voice sounds?

God to Stephen: "I let you die on π day, so you can get into Heaven as soon as you calculate the last digit!"
