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.
