  1. From my perspective, we have two choices. We can either believe that the universe was created by an entity that designed extreme suffering and extreme penalties to all forms of life as part of its plan ... or, we can believe (as did Stephen Hawking, before he died) that the universe in one form or another always existed and will always exist, no creator involved, and that suffering of all forms of life is natural. I prefer the second choice.

  2.  @2fast2block You sound like the pope. When the Catholic priest Georges Lemaître created the Big Bang theory, it followed that the Big Bang theory would be enmeshed with the idea that the universe was created by a god, as Stephen Hawking learned when he visited the pope. ... "In 1985, I attended a conference on cosmology at the Vatican in Rome. The gathering of scientists had an audience with Pope John Paul II. He told us that it was okay to study the workings of the universe, but we should not ask questions about its origin, for that was the work of God." Stephen Hawking
