I don't think that religion (aside from being the main cause of most major wars throughout history) is a bad thing [/sarcasm]... So I guess I can't blame "believers" for their blind ignorance in defending their current perception of reality. But if you REALLY look at the facts with an open mind, instead of desperately holding onto what you have been taught your entire life (that there is some sort of divine creator), you would quickly realize that there is no concrete or factual evidence that supports your cause. While on the other hand, there are countless facts that support the truth.
However, if believing in something greater helps you to sleep at night and ease your anxiety about the fact that one day you will just cripple over and die into non-existence. Then who is everyone else to tell you differently. Just have 'faith'.
..if we don't blow ourselves up firstI think there is an answer that we can't comprehend yet, but will one day. Just a thought.
nobody knows either way. I like how atheists prance around and believe in theories that can't even be proven. They are just theories... You really think we know what the hell happened billions of years ago? We barely got out of the stone age. Until we become some super intelligent race that can travel through out the universe and know everything thing there is to know about it I don't think either side really has a case.
I normally don't get into these debates, but all you raging atheists are starting to become worse than the religious fanatics... Most of you will buy any bull shit theory from scientist just like any religious fanatic buys bull shit feed to them at church. Both groups are a bunch of sheep just eating out of different hands.

I was annoyed by this quote, which seems to be putting words in his mouth. (Oh the irony.)
"Hawking had seemed to accept the role of God in the creation of the universe."
Hawking, like any properly, properly intelligent person, is an atheist. (That's not saying religionists are thick, just that geniuses see god for what it is - man's need to require structure and reason.)
By the way zealots, who created god?
The trouble is with your take on this is you go down that pathetic route of atheists being fanatics. Most, like me, don't care. I don't choose science over religion. I choose no religion because it's completely obsurd! I don't care about scientific theory or some religionists take on something they've never understood. I care that in my rational mind, religion, of any kind, is total bollocks.
I find it funny that people think it can only be one way or the other, why not a little bit of both?

I'm not gonna get into the debate but be honest, how many of you did the voice in your head when reading the quote?
