Who needs God? Not the Universe, says one of the smartest people on Earth (Stephen Hawking)

Hawkings on the origin of the universe - MSNBC.com


“Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing,” Hawking and his co-author, Caltech physicist Leonard Mlodinow, write in “The Grand Design,” which is due to be issued next week. “Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going.”

Wow!  The universe and I have a lot in common!  Neither of us need God!  It’s like we think alike, the universe and me!!  I bet we’d get along really well!  I wish the universe would come by my apartment once in a while.  We’d have a blast!!


Er, a bang!


Wait, I don’t want to have sex with the universe!
