Stephen Hawking R.I.P.
https://www.theguardian.com/science/...r-dies-aged-76

Professor Hawking’s insights shaped modern cosmology and inspired global audiences in the millions.

Stephen Hawking, the brightest star in the firmament of science, whose insights shaped modern cosmology and inspired global audiences in the millions, has died aged 76.

His family released a statement in the early hours of Wednesday morning confirming his death.

Hawking’s children, Lucy, Robert and Tim said in a statement: “We are deeply saddened that our beloved father passed away today.

“He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years.

“His courage and persistence with his brilliance and humour inspired people across the world.

Wrong, at least for me. If it works for you, more power to you.

Not to get this bounced to DC, but based on your position, every scientist prior to the rise of Christianity, and every non-Christian scientist, is "arrogant", which is ****ing stupid.

I swear our local news this morning said today was national pie day, and thinking pie, not PI.

In either case, he died yesterday, so how could he have died on national pie or PI day?

It was the 13th here. It was the 14th in England, where he died.

People believe in God because they can't explain something. He desired and searched for understanding, so God wasn't really an option.

I think these three quotes sum up the basics of life pretty well. RIP, Mr. Hawking.

He is universally viewed as the smartest person that lived in our lifetimes. Intellect that impacted human history. Maybe you shouldn't be so dismissive of his beliefs?
