The science of living – Reuters

                 


                         
                     

                 

 
                         

The title of the news about the interview of Stephen Hawking to The World says it all:. “There is no God I’m an atheist.” Imagine the header contrary, equally ridiculous: “God exists I am a believer.”

.
                     


                          Hawking may be a good scientist, but until now was not able to write a single book that would be accessible to anyone who was not a scientist too. Was the author of one of the biggest advertising coups of the twentieth century. Drew an impenetrable physics book A Brief History of Time

All title that attracts flâneur . Who does not want to read a book about the history of time? Who is not amused with the idea of ​​time have a story? And above all, who would resist a book about scientific things (and soon perhaps boring or incomprehensible) it promises and can be brief, despite being only in brief terms millimeter?

A Brief History of Time – I’ve bought and tried to read a bad twice – could well have 50 000 pages if it were just a little clearer. As it is, would require a different title: “. A Long Armed and confused Paper on History of Time”

Hawking adds that “The religion believes in miracles, but these are not compatible with science.” Note that Science is entitled to great letter, even in the middle of a sentence.

I also do not believe in miracles. But I think those who believe in miracles consider them precisely because they are incompatible with science.

God can not be great, but Hawking is silly.
