In his newest book, renowned physicist Professor Stephen Hawking, shown here in June at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, says that God was not necessary for creation.

LONDON (AP) — Did creation need a creator? British physicist and mathematician Stephen Hawking says no, arguing in his new book that there need not be a God behind the creation of the universe. The concept is explored in The Grand Design, excerpts of which were printed in the British newspaper The Times on Thursday. The book, written with fellow physicist Leonard Mlodinow, is scheduled to be published by Bantam Press on Sept. 9.

Nothing from nothing.

My man Billy Preston had it down.

I wonder who created gravity.

It surely wasn't created by some jewish guy that needed rest on the 7th day.

I'll go out on a limb and say gravity is generated by matter, which has always existed.

I guess that means matter and energy are god.

Now we have a testable hypothesis.

Science can actually prove that matter and energy exist.

So who created matter?

So who created matter?

That's a question that man will never be able to answer.

But, if God created matter, then who or what created God?

It does amaze me that we, as a species, can't even begin to comprehend all of this.

Are you of the "particles" or the "waves" school regarding matter?

Neither. I'm from the "I haven't a danged clue" regarding matter :)

I don't think the human mind will ever be able to comprehend anything that doesn't have a beginning. Everything comes from somewhere or from something. Nothing can ever be made from nothing.

But. . .but . . .aren't you claiming that matter has always existed? If matter is something, it had to have come from somewhere.

No, what I am saying is these are the limits of current human understanding: Everything comes from somewhere or from something. Nothing can ever be made from nothing.

People may believe other things, but the human mind cannot understand those other things, and therefore, has to except them on blind faith.
