    pics or gtfo.

    Evolution is a theory.

    The Big Bang is a theory.

    The Big Bang Theory has Penny, hmmmmmm
    Do you know what a theory is?

    Oh, and gravity is a theory, music is a theory, atomic theory? Could go on...

    Guys you do know that the "God" particle is a shortened name for the "GOD-DAMN particle" because it was so hard to find, don't you? They shortened the nickname to the "God" particle because the American publishers wouldn't print the word "Damn" on the cover of their science magazines. It has nothing to do with validating/invalidation religion.

    Just saying like.

    What a bunch of bollix, the God part, not the science part. Again which God are they talking about, Thor? Sun God? Allah. God brought into everything, the fooker needs to show himself then because if he did create the world we live in he has a lot of answering to do for some of his fooked up creations and ideals on this planet.

    There is no God, end of story.

    bit of an ungrateful attitude that.

    what if you created concious life in some form and it cursed you because it was fat or had a sore leg? not your fault is it.

    Delighted they found God tbh. Can't see the downside.

    Again lads read the post I just made above.

    It's just a NICKNAME. It has nothing to do with God or Religion.

    The first 8 seconds of this video sums up how I feel right now.

    Will find more questions than answers. Although I guess that is the point of science. Trying to compare religion/Bible with Science is a non starter.

    There is nothing we can do with the Bible except restore it and protect it for future generations. Science is evolving and learning new things. We know everything about the Bible.

    The big difference between the two, one claims to have all the answers, the other looks to expand and gain more answers and knowledge.

    Or possibly go to his end with a logical mind, happy in the fact he enjoyed his life without fearing a non existent spook?

    exactly. The bible explains basically everything and has done for 2000 years. science changes like the wind. I think I know which one I'd trust.

    as Haldane said: the Universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose.

    I mean the discovery that an electron is everywhere and yet nowhere is hard to fathom. Also the idea that two identical particles could be thousands of miles away, yet if one is sent in one direction, the other will automatically react in the same way.

    You are being sarcastic here, right? Tell me I'm being slow...

    If I created conscious life being all powerful and all mighty, I would have put some more thought in the creation I was creating because "God" in your world did a lousy and lame Job for a guy all knowing and powerful.

    What "God" should actually do, with his super powers is create a perfect version of his lame self so This new "God" can fix all the flaws of his creations.

    Bunch of bollix my friend!

    Peace.

    Doubtful.

    Crikey, I used to have a jar of those Higgs Boson particles in my shed and I used them all up throwing them at crows when I had no cent coins. I feel pret-ty foolish now, they could have been worth something.

    €7bn later and some nerds have maybe seen something. They should get a wedgy for their efforts.

    Yes sir, a theory is:

    a coherent group of tested general propositions, commonly regarded as correct, that can be used as principles of explanation and prediction for a class of phenomena:

    eg
    Einstein's THEORY of Relativity. Prove it now sir.
    Darwin's THEORY of Evolution. Prove it now sir.
    The THEORY of the Big Bang. Prove it now sir.

    You in favour of the Bible or Science? Hard to tell. For me Science can teach us new things, we can learn and invent new things because of Science.

    We can't use the Bible for any of that.

    whoa, lets not get blasphemous.

    Do you have a concept of how big and how complicated the universe is? He created life that can think for itself. that is genius. Every year he should get the noble prize imo.

    Are the church covered insurance-wise if and when they eventually find the particle and its humping some other smaller defensless particle?

    exactly. Like the theory of gravity, how come it wasn't missed before someone came up with that theory? it's all communist hocus pocus.

    Einstein's theory of Relativity has been thrown into doubt recently when in CERN they pushed neutrinos faster than the speed of light—60 billionths of a second faster, and nothing happened.

    Proving once and for all that we don't know what the fu*k is going on.

    No, taxpayers will again be liable.

    At last, mankind has discovered how everything we see around we, mass, came into being and experimentally verified it! No more God, bitches! Man has glimpsed inside the mind of God and come to understand his secrets.

    Now it's time to hunt down god and kill him and his dictatorship once and for all!!

    Fear can do strange things to the mind. Sure isnt that how the church brainwash kids into believing their nonsense ? Do what I tell ya or the devil will get ya !!

    €7bn later and some nerds have maybe seen something. They should get a wedgy for their efforts.

    Or to put it another way possibly found the missing piece to the standard model of physics. But who needs understanding and knowledge when you can be ignorant instead ?

    Recently it was discovered that the GPS tracking system tracking the particle between CERN and the observation base in Italy fucked up. So, basically the neutrino experiment went wrong and therefore Einstein's theory of Relativity still stands.

    Father Higgs-Boson does good mass.

    No, but we have a far better idea then we would if we took the bible as the truth.

    Calling it the 'god particle' is like a slap to the face of any scientist contributing to the higgs boson research.

    What's this got to do with the bible?

    Unless you can do the maths you too are taking the god particle as faith.
