Heaven is 'a fairy story,' scientist Stephen Hawking says
By Dan Gilgoff, CNN.com Religion Editor
The concept of heaven or any kind of afterlife is a "fairy story," famed British scientist Stephen Hawking said in a newspaper interview this week.
"I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail," the physicist said in an interview published Sunday in Britain's Guardian newspaper. "There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark."
This man is a fool who thinks he can imagine reality rather that participate in it. It is OK for him to remain a fool, but it is unconscionable that he is taking so many people down with him.
Shame on him. Shame his computer is so limited.

"Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools" (Romans 1:22)

Yeah... one of the most brilliant physicists in the history of mankind... or some hack writer. Hmm, who am I going to side with on this one? That's a real stumper.
On the one hand we have the man responsible for mathematically modelling the behavior of black holes, which sure is impressive. But then again, you know how to quote the bible!
Why, it's practically a toss-up! I just don't know who has the superior intellect here!
In the end he will find who is smaller.
