    I'm always surprised with people who want to poo poo Christianity literally know nothing about it.

    A. In Christianity God is a trinity, father son and spirit. The 'son' of God Christ is God in the flesh. But this flesh(son) is not his own father,
    Bible is clear on this.
    Think of it like 3 flames, Father son and Holy Spirit, put the flames together, you get one.

    B. No Christian churches symbolically eat's Christs flesh on Sundays. You are thinking of Roman Catholicism. Different thing.

    Frankly I'm amazed people on this forum often don't know the difference between Christianity and Roman Catholicism.


    They poo poo it because it is poo poo!

    He was no Fritz Zwicky or Fenyman. The former a complete oddball but a brilliant scientist, there are many like this who don't get the recognition they deserve. This is not to deny Stephen was a brilliant man in his own right, and an inspiration to many. We won't see his like again. RIP.

    He was no Fritz Zwicky or Fenyman.
    I'd say he was Feynman's equal. Feynman was a much better public communicator (and his choice of what to communicate was better), but in terms of mental ability I'd say they were the same.

    That Fritz Zwicky was superior, I'd be interested to see how you made that judgement.

    Even Fritz Zwicky was no Fritz Zwicky

    Dirac and Hawking of course both held the same post.

    Diracs contribution to physics is immense and he was said to be Einstein's equal.
