Stephen Hawking passed away from complications of ALS at the tender age of 76.

"Who?" you ask?

Dr. Stephen Hawking was a leading expert in theoretical physics, publishing several treatises on black holes and the like. Here's more about him: https://www.yahoo.com/news/stephen-hawking-dead-famed-scientist-035055007.html

I guess that Pi(e) Day could be considered apropos for him to pass on...

[Namaste Jesus]

Fascinating fellow, who apparently had a humorous side as well....

 

[Thomas]

God phoned me last night ... bit upset ...

Apparently Stephen had only been there a couple of hours when they had a face-to-face and Stephen somehow convinced the Deity that He doesn't exist ... He's not too pleased and a bit confused ...

 

[wil]

Well if this is true, G!d has more of an open mind than his followers.

And I am a tad confused as well...

a. a devout atheist gets to go to heaven?
b. a scientist ends up in an imaginary place after death?
c. Hawking is not only smarter than all of us, but also smarter than G!d?
d. He spoke with something he doesn't believe to exist?
e. Did some telcom run a hard line our cell towers to the heavens?
f. does that mean there is wifi and we will be able to continue to login?

Now I suddenly get relativity

 

[Thomas]

And I am a tad confused as well...
a. a devout atheist gets to go to heaven?

Quite possible.

b. a scientist ends up in an imaginary place after death?

Well you say it's imaginary ... I find it no more preposterous than multiverse theory, and some other cosmic solutions, in fact more credible than some ... According to Quantum Phenomena, somewhere Elvis is alive and in the building ...

c. Hawking is not only smarter than all of us, but also smarter than G!d?

According to Hawkings ...

d. He spoke with something he doesn't believe to exist?

He's reviewing that assumption

e. Did some telcom run a hard line our cell towers to the heavens?

No, I have a private line

f. does that mean there is wifi and we will be able to continue to login?

It's more a LAN without borders 'locality', etc.,

Now I suddenly get relativity

You see! Yay!

 

[wil]

I disagree with the premise...If Hawkings ended up in Heaven talking to G!d...that would immediately end his thoughts that heaven and G!d didn't exist.

and if there was a LAN...then I am sure many of our buddies who have passed on would have posted by now... especially the one that started this thread, inlove, prober..and the rest...

 

[Thomas]

OK ... I withdraw everything ... sheesh ...

 

[StevePame]

No, I have a private line

Next time you talk, ask if He wants to be a moderator on here That might help us attract some new and interesting members...

You know he's fairly opinionated eh? And say something wrong and smiting is a thing

Little more powerful than a ban...

 

[Phyllis Sidhe_Uaine]

Little more powerful than a ban...

Might get the trolls and other troublemakers to really read the CoC, eh?
