Stephen Hawking The Overrated Joke

Stephen Hawking recently released a "paper" "revolutionizing" black holes. Right, I read it. It's barely 2 pages long and contains not a single mathematical character.

Physicists (including me) don't take him or his "paper" seriously, which is normal as it's obviously a way for him to get attention, so people will talk about him, so he will make more money by raising sales of his books.

Same marketing technique as the Miley Cyrus "twerking" story. She didn't care about what she was doing, she just wanted people to talk about her to make money, and the people who called her names were just too dumb to not fall into her obvious trap. Same with Hawking here. But then you might think: Hey Yan, you're talking about him, you're doing the opposite of what you're suggesting! Hold your horses reader, I didn't give my opinion about that yet. Here it is.

I don't care if Hawking makes money, I care for what people think. Now do your research, and please understand that Hawking is nothing close to being a genius. He once said in a Discovery Channel documental: "[...]This leads me to a profound realization. The simplest explanation is there is no God and no afterlife either.", "When people ask me if a God created the universe, I tell them the question itself makes no sense, before the universe, there was no time for God to make the universe in." Oh right, and having the opposing opinion should make more sense?

The concept of God is that he is even beyond time, God doesn't need time, so that argument makes creationists laugh, and with reason, it's of school yard intellectual strength. And if time really is necessary to create the universe, how did the universe come into existence, God or no God, if there "was" no time? Good uhh.. Strong logic there Stephen.

If you read my blog before you know that my take on this is that the universe exists for no reason because the odds of it coming into existence for no reason were not of 0%. I hold nothing personal against Stephen Hawking, but he's a puppet portrayed by the media as being the greatest scientist of our times even if he has absolutely nothing to show for that. He writes books. Big deal. Read Newton's Principia Mathematica, now that, is 600 pages which define the very idea of genius.
