Loved the movie The Theory of Everything and was so happy that Stephen Hawkings love it to!!!
He was a Stella Nova in the darkness of space and time

It makes me fucking angry, but shouldn't be surprising, that there are religionists trash-talking him and being their typical smug, self-righteous,asshole-y selves.

ignorant believers have been spreading lies about Atheists for 27 centuries now because their vain alleged gods cannot be proven nor relied upon for a single miracle.... scientists like Hawking expand knowledge while faiths destroy true understanding of the universe with their idiotic creationist impossible claims

Relevant to our group;
"I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail," he said. "There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark." 
Dr. Stephen Hawking

We've lost a great person, a great mind, a great thinker today.
I had to update my Facebook header...

How very true, Stephen Hawking - you will be sorely missed.

May he rest in peace.

What's the right wording then? May IT rest in peace?

@The_Antichrist May his legacy live forever.
