Stephen Hawking Says God Did Not Create the Universe: What Do You Think?

Famed theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking now says definitely that God did not create the universe or spark the Big Bang. In his new book, “The Grand Design,” scheduled for a September release, Hawking argues that the universe didn't need divine inspiration to come into being. “Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing,” writes Hawking. “Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists why we exist. “It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going.” Do you agree or disagree with Stephen Hawking about the role of God in creation? http://abcnews.go.com/WN/stephen-hawking-god-create-universe-question-day/story?… added by: unimatrix0

The strongest factor influencing the use of illicit drugs is an individual's race or ethnicity, according to the study. Non-Hispanic whites are most likely to use harder drugs such as heroin or cocaine, followed by Hispanics and then by African Americans.
