Many people believe that Stephen Hawkins is one of the most brilliant people on earth.\u00a0 That is why it is fascinating how he displays his own version of circular reasoning:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe role played by time at the beginning of the universe is, I believe, the final key to removing the need for a Grand Designer, and revealing how the Universe created itself\u2026Time itself must come to a stop.\u00a0 You can\u2019t get to a time before the big bang, because there was no time before the big bang.\u00a0 We have finally found something that does not have a cause, because there was no time for a cause to exist in.\u00a0 For me, this means there is no possibility of a creator because there is no time for a creator to have existed.\u00a0 Since time itself began at the moment of the Big Bang, it was an event that could not have been caused or created by anyone or anything\u2026So when people ask me if a god created the universe, I tell them the question itself makes no sense.\u00a0 Time didn\u2019t exist before the Big Bang, so there is no time for God to make the universe in.\u00a0 It\u2019s like asking for directions to the edge of the Earth.\u00a0 The Earth is a sphere.\u00a0 It does not have an edge, so looking for it is a futile exercise.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n In his desperate attempt to disprove the existence of God, the smartest man on earth has fallen into the trap of circular reasoning.\u00a0 The reality is that even if one believes in the Big Bang, it does not solve the problem because something had to have existed or there is no explanation for the Big Bang itself.\u00a0 It is ludicrous to argue that time did not exist before the Big Bang.\u00a0 That is actually Hawkins coming up with nonsense to explain what he admitted he could not explain.\u00a0 Actually, Hawkins himself made exactly that point in the following quote:<\/p>\n \u201cEven if there is only one possible unified theory, it is just a set of rules and equations.\u00a0 What is it that breathes fire into the equations and makes a universe for them to describe?\u00a0 The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe.\u00a0 Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n It is interesting and comforting to note that at the end of the day, all science really knows is that there are some questions for which science has no answer.\u00a0 Those who choose to believe in God have a lot less difficulty in understanding the universe.\u00a0 As to searching for the edge of the earth, that is actually quite easy.\u00a0 You just need to look up.<\/p>\n TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Many people believe that Stephen Hawkins is one of the most brilliant people on earth.\u00a0 That is why it is fascinating how he displays his own version of circular reasoning: \u201cThe role played by time at the beginning of the … Continue reading
