The Passing of Stephen Hawking- and how to disagree without being disagreeable.
youtu.be...
Our news media have been busy the last few days lamenting the loss of one of the shining stars in the world of physics. Not only could Stephen Hawking accurately be described as luminary in the realm of physics, his courage and example in the face of a physically debilitating disease that had originally been predicted to take his life within two years of its onset. were also reason to celebrate his extraordinary life.
He was in later years also renown for being a champion of a particular worldview, and it is on that basis that I want to share this video, out of a sense of balance, to temper somewhat his influence in this area.
The overriding consensus among mainstream media can, without fear of contradiction, be termed secular, so the following video I put forward because, unless you have this particular interest, this is not something that you will see or hear otherwise.
