Stephen Hawking says the ‘God Particle’ that scientists believe created the world could actually end it, too. The particle – know as Higgs boson – “has the worrisome feature” that it could become unstable at extremely high energies and create a “black hole” that would collapse the universe, the legendary British physicist has warned in a new book titled Starmus, according to the Daily Express. “This could happen at any time and we wouldn’t see it coming,” Hawking claimed in the book. But don’t quit your job and empty your bank account just yet. Such a black hole could take trillions of years to topple the universe, and scientists don’t yet have a particle accelerator large enough to create the conditions necessary for such a doomsday. “A particle accelerator that reaches 100bn GeV [the required giga-electron-volts] would be larger than Earth, and is unlikely to be funded in the present economic climate,” Hawking added, according to the report. The largest existing accelerator — the Large Hadron Collider, which helped discover the Higgs boson in 2012 — is in Switzerland. Other physicists note that it’s highly unlikely the described scenario would ever occur, but Hawking disagrees. “It places important constraints on the evolution of the universe.” Poster Comment: ========================================================== Stephen Hawking is an avowed atheist - yet he invokes the "God Particle." Check it OUT?“This could happen at any time and we wouldn’t see it coming,” Hawking claimed in the book.

Atheists are allowed to admit it if it's only a particle. "scientists don’t yet have a particle accelerator large enough to create the conditions necessary for such a doomsday" -- gee, isn't it wonderful knowing they will someday and already have one that can cause a hell of a lot of trouble? That machine sure is ugly and grotesque. What's with the big piece of plastic sheeting -- is it a chuppah, or maybe the God particle passing from chunk to chunk?
It was originally referred to as "the goddamn particle".
John Howard says: There are 4 schools of economics: Democrats don't mind war as long as they can have big government. Republicans don't mind big government as long as they can have war. The last project of this world scale was in 1942. It was the invention of the Atom Bomb.
U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4: NO BORDERS + NO LAWS = NO COUNTRY
========================================= The two versions make no difference to atheists. boom U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4: NO BORDERS + NO LAWS = NO COUNTRY
The voice of the 'unbelievers' believing that THEY ARE GOD. "WE ARE GOING TO BECOME GODS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE WARFARE." Fast Forward to 7:00 Is that U PN? U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4: NO BORDERS + NO LAWS = NO COUNTRY
Perhaps. It makes no difference to me, save that they could have chosen a different nickname to the Higgs boson.
