as for your last thought.. there is no doubt in my mind when it comes to the non-existence of God/s. there never has been.

What about the god particle?

And can I make the assumption that you were raised in a house that made it immediately clear at a young age that there is not a God? Or was it an analytic conclusion based on observations of science and biology?

if you made that assumption youd be mistaken. i was christened, i had my first holy communion and i was confirmed. if i wanted to wander over to the catholic church across the road, i wasnt stopped. i dont think i ever believed. i was born an atheist(as we all are) and was most likely agnostic til i was 11. it was then that this whole God thing didnt make any sense to me... no matter how hard i looked at it, or wanted it to, it just wasnt gonna happen for me.


what about the God particle? if you think semantics are gonna trip me up, youre sorely mistaken. why change it from higgs boson to the God particle? it has nothing to do with God... but we are talking about the building blocks of everything which many people believe are the work of a god so... and boy isnt it a head snapping title.


da da dum.. the GOD particle!!!!!!!!

dont make me laugh.

I didn't come up with the title ... and you must admit it is more snappy then Higgs Boson. And it was more in reference of believing in something that has yet to be proven to exist.

Also, if I was trying to make you laugh, I would tell you a joke.

it is interesting that theyve identified every other particle involved except this one. and im very curious what, if anything, will happen when they do.

Best case is they prove an existing theory and the scientists can justify the billions spent. Worst case is we accidently rip a hole in the space / time continuum and mankind is responsible for the destruction of the universe.

i like the idea of the discovery resulting in mankind destroying the universe... its the devil in me.

I was raised Roman Catholic, but since I've matured I have found the religious beliefs of the world absolutely fascinating! Some of the best stories ever told. I by no means consider myself an atheist but a lover of all things beautiful and ugly, happy and sad, straight and gay. It's funny how atheists or any faith for that matter preach their beliefs as to be the only one that's TRUE yet we ALL WORSHIP the greatest of false idols...The almighty dollar. In God we Trust printed right on that mofo, and its in your pocket everyday...shit, you used 20 to 40 of them for your Tenclub memberships...Merry Christmas...Love you all.
