London (CNN)There is no God -- that's the conclusion of the celebrated
physicist
Stephen Hawking, whose final book is published Tuesday.
The book, which was completed by his family after his death, presents answers
to the questions that Hawking said he received most during his time on Earth.
Other bombshells the British scientist left his readers with include
the belief that
alien life is out there, artificial intelligence could outsmart humans
and time travel
can't be ruled out.
Hawking, considered one of the most brilliant scientists of his
generation, died in
March at the age of 76.

"There is no God. No one directs the universe," he writes in "Brief
Answers to the Big Questions."
"For centuries, it was believed that disabled people like me were
living under a curse
that was inflicted by God," he adds. "I prefer to think that everything
can be explained
another way, by the laws of nature."
Hawking suffered from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative
disorder also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, for most of his adult
life. The scientist
died while still working on the book, which his family and colleagues
finished with the
help of his vast personal archives

While Hawking spoke of his lack of belief in God during his life,
several of his other
answers are more surprising.
"There are forms of intelligent life out there," he writes. "We need to
be wary of
answering back until we have developed a bit further."
And he leaves open the possibility of other phenomena.
"Travel back in time can't be ruled out according to our present
understanding," he says.
He also predicts that "within the next hundred years we will be able to
travel to anywhere
in the Solar System."

GSI:
God is the active one, the Yang, of creation. God is NOT a person.
The Bible says quite clearly the God is "SPIRIT".
But evangelicals have their own "God", who IS a PERSON.
This 'God" "person" even talks to evangelicals, especially TV
evangelical Pastors. And takes walks along Tasman beaches
with His favorite human, Michael "Christ", sometimes along
with His son, Jesus.

WHAT!! Hawking doesn't sound like an atheist to me. He's right - no one
directs the universe. God willed the universe and all in it into existence in
the creation moment and then (get this) ........... let the universe evolve.

After all. Either an atheist has elected to condemn himself or God has done it
for him. Are atheists now trying to say "God did it. It's his fault".

Haahaahaa.

Your god is irresponsible, careless and arrogant. He's supposed to be all
loving, in fact unconditionally loving. He's worse than many good humans.

You didn't know that the universe has been expanding from a single microscopic
point to it's current size for 13.8 billion years now?

But you don't want his love, so you fight against God. Welcome to the eternal

I didn't say that. Everybody knows that. But it's only a hypotheses that
everything started from a microscopic point. Actually that makes no sense,
it's more reasonable to say that everything started out as energy, and
matter formed later.

His love? First demonstrate that before saying anything else. You can't.

Very well could be. Whether first appearance was mass or energy or both is pure
guesswork.

Nope. That makes no sense for a start because he first condemned us to hell.
It's an irrational turn around.
Its purpose was obvious, to put us on the back foot by putting us into a
state of guilt and awe.

When did God do that? Jesus died on the cross to redeem all mankind from
inputted sin - past, present, future.

Sin wasn't imputed, it was committed.

Jesus went to the cross so that we could be forgiven for our sins but
that did not mean if you become religious that you are no longer
responsible for what you do.

There is something so evil, so pervasive that happens in the
Christianity religion that says this...

A man (for example) comes before a judge charged with raping and killing
an 8 year old girl. The judge passes the sentence of death by hanging.
Jesus walks in and says, I will take their place. Okay the man goes and
walks out of the court room free. He gets onto the street and becomes
religious and says I have changed my ways and I claim the righteousness
of Jesus and am saved.

Oh no, he is still the raper and murderer of the 8 year old girl!

And given the tightening of the screw in his life, things don't go the
way he likes it, he would do the same thing again.

Transformation can only occur if that man gives his whole life to God,
to the Lord Jesus who died for our sins but did not stay dead and rose
from the grave.

I know, its a miracle but there were recorded witnesses! :-).

Point is, we are what we are and there is no denying that. Sinful
people, who need changing, that is why the world is going the way it is
going.

If you want to change...next stop...Jesus...not religion...the Lord
Jesus Christ.

Yes, Satan is the Vatican, but that is not the only place he lives and
his ways live on.

Christianity takes away some of our responsibility by telling us to look to
a god figure for everything.
And God killed his son/himself just to forgive us? That's idiotic and
barbaric. It's also contradictory because why get so worked up over one
mistake, and then do such a huge backflip?? People came up with such
nonsense in the dark ages.

Actually there is evidence that Jesus was a made up name representing more

His ways live on in Christianity, the religion of disempowerment, submission

The evil of today is worse.

Say what you like, think what you like, but there were witnesses that

Also, I don't take any notice of what the Catholic church says.

But you don't get cast out unless you live for sin. And listing a single book

No, Jesus assigned the first Pope and then specified the method of replacement.

Wrong. The sin of A&E is inputted to man just like our 10 fingers and toes.

First, it was to redeem us of inputted sin, and then it was to forgive us for
our own actual sins up to the time of our baptism

Yep. He's still a mortal sinner looking for a place to sin.

The once you are baptized and redeemed of actual sin and input sin to the time
of your baptism, the rest of your live is in your hands. That's what the fires
are for.

>Yes, Satan is the Vatican, but that is not the only place he lives and

Nope, satan is the evil still living in your heart looking for a new way to
violate God.

You wasted your time in scripture learning nothing.

God could dissolve it instantly. It would be like turning a light on in a
room. There's no need for anyone innocent to die or suffer. That's the pagan
part of Christianity (blood sacrifice) that it adopted from older religions
to increase its popularity.

Yet you still don't get what God is calling us to do. That is to overcome our
sin nature ourselves - because it's what we want to do in following the
teachings of Jesus Christ and thus achieve the kingdom of God. Of course he
could flash us clean in a heart beat. But all that would do is encourage us to
continue to sin as there is no penalty to do so.

We are ALL fully capable of listening to God and living as he calls us and thus
attain the kingdom of Heaven for all eternity. It is our own evil nature that
gets in the way. Control yourself and all will be well..

God made us to be sinners. He knew the future and knew what he was doing. We
are just carrying out exactly what he planned. He can't complain.

What evil? Me? Prove it.
Where did evil come from? Everything must have an origin and purpose. God
created or at least set in motion the concepts of evil and sin like he
created everything else.

Evil had to have an origin and that can only be one, which is the Creator of
all things. He knew the future so this was obviously his plan. One who plans
evil which brings suffering and death to innocents is inherently evil.

No, God didn't MAKE us to sin. He specifically MADE to decide what we wanted -
him or satan.

Don't need to. God fully knows you.

No, God gave us free choice - he or satan.

Wrong. Nothing can happen without the Creator planning and making it happen
first.
If we are just creations then we are essentially just product like any
products, just like a computer program. If there are bugs then the
programmer is at fault.

Free choice does not create evil.
Plus God could have created A&E smarter and more moral plus taught them
better so they would make the right choice but he didn't.

Your choice - follow God as he teaches us, or follow satan as you wish. There
are consequences - eternal love of God or eternal fires of hell.

Well, you're not really wrong. YOU..........are evil in action when you defy
God. It goes back to free choice. And you are really some bad ass.

Not if the whole idea is to challenge you and see if you can find it in yourself
to follow God vs the material world you prefer. What you prefer over God is
bad, bad, bad for your eternal salvation.

That's right. God created all things in the scientific big bang and then let it
