    Those tweets are hilarious. Scientists discover a subatomic particle they have nicknamed the "god particle" and the religionists think the scientists have just proven the existence of GOD! This is just too funny! Wait, let me guess - they think it was discovered by two guys named Higgs and Boson in their basement laboratory somewhere in Europe. Right? And when someone references Scooby Doo and Yogi in relation to planetary exploration, we all know it means there are cartoon characters on Mars. Right? Oh you religionists, nobody can put one over on you, can they?

    If only someone could force a few of these cretins to take a couple of classes and labs with Neil Degrasse Tyson, or Bill Nye, or even Physics 101, and 102

    Maybe a couple of field trips to Costa Rica, Hudson Bay, and South Africa with some actual "pointy headed" elite scientists could convince them there is fundamental truth out there more than what's found in ancient books like the Koran or the Bible.

  14. Typical... no questions from the "right" regarding the finding... IF those a holes on twitter had listened to a full report about the Higgs boson, they would have heard that the "GOD" particle was originally named the GOD DAMNED particle because it was almost impossible to find.... his publisher nixed the damned part because it was not as marketable....

    DUH and DUHmmer...

  17. “We don’t need to know those things… we’re Americans.” The intellectual laziness started, oh, sixty years ago? A gorilla could get a job in a factory.

    They knew they were getting intellectually lazy, and they knew it was wrong, so they tried to tie it to righteousness because they didn’t want to change.

    And industries grew around that thinking.

    The Witch of Wasilla has probably been searching stores for a tiny clear bottle that can be attached/tied onto another of her 'stunning' neck chains to wear when she appears on one of the stunned Foxhole shows.

    She'll prearrange to be asked what it is and she tell them it holds 'The God Particle' as she was the chosen one!!

    Real science left Science Fiction in the dust decades ago.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTVT-MlRq6o

    You know, Gryphen, this rises above idle navel gazing. My little sister died a tragic and unexpected death. I knew her matter could neither be created or destroyed. Knowledge is strength. Her final wishes were meticulously laid out in her will. Funerals, after all, are for the living. The deceased are gone. But I knew her nine-year-old daughter was watching. I was the only member of my family who had the strength and decency to honor her final request. The ¨Christians¨ in my family, wailing and gnashing their teeth, were the least helpful. Six years after her sudden death, I am the family member who visits her grave site the most (My niece and I enjoy making her mother a bowl of tea).

    I am dating a woman who counsels children who are dying of cancer. She uses the concept of ¨Heaven¨ to some of them and their parents to ease their suffering. In this regard, religion is a good thing.

    She comes to me, the ¨cold-hearted¨ scientist, for strength.

      I, too, acknowledge that matter can not be created or destroyed when dealing with the passing of a friend or loved one.

      That gives me much more solace than one day, maybe, meeting them in the afterlife.

    One more thing. I was the one who sent GRYPHEN the picture of Britta at her shower at Casa Palin. 1 minute after I sent that email, I sent another saying not to share the photo because it belonged it a person who isn't a public figure despite a semi public facebook. He didn't see the second email and published the picture. Reaction was, as Phil said, disgusting considering the intergrity of both Britta and Track. Soon after the post went up, he emailed me back to say he was sorry he didn't see my request not to publish and was worried I would hear shit about it. I reassured him I would not and all was well. So yes, compared to PG, who has to one-up everything, Gryphen does have integrity. his flaw remains his allowing society's nastiness to seep into his blog comments. This flaw will insure that the Palins can FOREVER justify that they are victims of hate and bullying.

    Why is it called the God Particle?

    But it is so central to physics large and small, and proved to be so elusive, that the term "God particle" was chosen for the title of a popular book about it. The media loved that brilliant soundbite and ran with it, and that's how the Higgs Boson got its more grandiose nickname. Although some physicists came to call it the goddamn-where-is-it particle — at least up until July 4th.

    Those tweets sound like snark. If not, they are unbelievably ignorant. The god particle does not prove or disprove the existence of a superior being. It is unrelated to that conversation. However, it is a very interesting theory for those who are interested in learning about it.

    It might be instructive - and gut bustingly funny - to ask the tweeting twits to explain what exactly they thought a "god particle" is.

    No matter how conclusive the proof, no matter how elated physicists get, no matter how profound the ramifications for the reality of the Higgs Boson, those goobers wouldn't accept it even if they got bit in the ass by a swarm of the damn things.

    If Darwin's "On the Origin of Species," or the travesty of the Scopes Trial, the significance of Epperson v. Arkansas, or the smashing of "intelligent design" in Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District didn't convince them, no amount of evidence will. They are unencumbered by reason, logic, or facts.

    Lovely Tweets, the idiots see the word "God" and jump to conclusions, but it's ok to bash Atheists without trying to grasp what this truly means.

    I'm afraid if they read "Large Hadron Collider", they'll read the second word wrong, and all heck would break loose. Let them stay stuck on stupid.

  32. As our pal, Ron White would say in his Vegas act, 'You can't fix stupid'.

    The FIRST pastor that tries to explain Higgs and the implications for our future, will be laughed off the planet, OR be booked permanently as the leader of a new cluster-fox marathon lasting 100 years for their listeners salvation....

    I go back to my original premise... 'You can't fix stupid'.

  34. Beldar Zeus Conehead12:10 PM

    Not so fast there, Gryphen. You literally could not be more wrong. And here's why.

    1) Science, which you always seem so fond of, named the Higgs boson the God Particle for a reason. And they couldnt have named it that if it wasnt proof of the existence of God, because that would violate the Laws of Science. Not that people of faith NEED proof. (But, yeah, even still, it doesnt hurt to have proof to reassure one's self that your faith is a whole stinky bucket o'crap.)

    2) I can't divulge my sources but I'm about 3-sigma confident that next week's National Enquirer will feature the famous Bat Boy and Lobster Boy holding an artist's rendition of the Higgs boson particle which clearly shows a tiny angry-looking bearded old man. Remind you of anyone? (GOD! in case you didnt know)

    3) Final proof is in the bible. First, is the prophecy of the discovery itself. Read it and weep, Mister Blister!

    "Forwhoseverth shall peereth closely upon the soil and plants and creatures shall witnesseth a great wonder."
    Diplodocus 17:76

    And from there, as if you really even need any more proof, it's a simple task to reveal the profound religious significance:
    You just take the original Hebrew text, extract the first sound of each character, assign each a number from 1-13 and multiply the result by Jeebus's age when he was 13 months older than he was when he reached age 20, then subtract the exact temperature in Celsius in Bethlehem at the moment the Higgs boson discovery press conference actually began (plus 4 minutes, because it takes 4 minutes to find the Lord's Prayer in a newly published edition of the KJV Bible) and subtract the Talmudic prime number assigned to each of the Twelve Tribes of Israel and convert that result to the Aramaic numerological alphabet and what does it spell: "TOGIVA" and that, my sad pagan friend, is an ancient Babylonian word meaning 'pebble" and pebbles are rocks and the Greek word for rock is Petra which is the root of the given name Peter. And who is Peter? THE INVENTOR OF THE GOD PARTICLE: PETER HIGGS!!!!!

    ATHEISTS ARE TOTALLY OWNED!!!! IN YOUR FACE!!!
    U!! S!! A!!! WE'RE NUMBER ONE!!! HA HA HA HA!!!!

    So next time you feel the satanic-inspired urge to mock the devout and uninformed, do just a little research, ok? You might learn something!
