    Hawking

    I can't even believe what a fraud dipshit thinker is.

    He links to a Hawking off point video ... when I linked to his recent paper and in an earlier thread is very recent book.


    End of page 2 in hawkings 2006 paper.

    " In particular a bottom-up approach to cosmology either requires one to postulate an initial state of the universe that is carefully fine-tuned or it requires one to invoke the notion of eternal inflation, which prevents one from predicting what a typical observer would see."

  2. Jem, think of this example. Take the apple and peel all the skin away. Ok? Now this apple (appear) to look like the potato with all the skin peeled away. It look and appear just like the potato. But there is (no evidence) it is the potato.

    Nobel Prize winner Weinberg -

    “...how surprising it is that the laws of nature and the initial conditions of the universe should allow for the existence of beings who could observe it. Life as we know it would be impossible if any one of several physical quantities had slightly different values.”

    - Professor Steven Weinberg
    (Nobel Laureate in High Energy Physics [a field of science that deals with the very

    early universe], writing in the journal “Scientific American”.)


    --


    "This new twist in the story of fine-tuning astonishes even the most atheistic of physicists. I spoke with Steven Weinberg, the Nobel-prize winner who has himself penned some witty lines mocking belief. On the telephone, from his office at the University of Texas at Austin, he said: “This is the one fine-tuning that seems to be extreme, far beyond what you could imagine just having to accept as a mere accident.""

    By the way dipshit stu... arguing the author the website is a Christian is ridiculous because Weinberg has made statements like this in more than one place. Its the science of understanding how incredibly the fine tuned the cosmological constant appears.

    What can counter that appearance of fine tuning?
    You can speculate a multiverse.
    You can hope we will find a theory of everything.

    I think you need to read the science...

    Models made by the top physicists show that given current scientific understanding there is no way random chance could have allowed the Universe to evolve the way it did and be compatible for the building blocks of life.

    So some physicists speculate there are almost infinite universes to counter conclusion of tuning.

    This is some more of the science

    Sir Roger Penrose OM FRS (born 8 August 1931) is an English mathematical physicist and Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford and Emeritus Fellow of Wadham College. He has received a number of prizes and awards, including the 1988 Wolf Prize for physics which he shared with Stephen Hawking for their contribution to our understanding of the universe.[1] He is renowned for his work in mathematical physics, in particular his contributions to general relativity and cosmology. He is also a recreational mathematician and philosopher.

  6. Nothing new because your STUpidity and compulsive lying are constant. As is your failure to back up your BS because you can't.

    And we've seen this from you getting the 96% / 4% split of dark matter & dark energy versus everything else BACKWARDS...

    Your pattern is that you're a world class loser, and watching you make a fool of yourself is highly entertaining :p

    You're just the guy in a bar who can't understand anything being said to him, with no argument and no clue, constantly half cut, unable to respond sensibly , telling anyone who comes into ear shot...."Einstein got Relativity BACKWARDS".

    Every one of your claims purporting to be "the science" has been debunked. Every one.

    So what do you do?
    Ignore everything and repost your claims again and again, just like a retard would.

    you are a shameless fraud.

    For starters try debunking what Penrose just explained in the video... or what weinberg explains abut the fine tuning of the cosmological constant.

    The fine tunings are real... the explanation of multiverse is the unverified unobserved speculation.
