Aren't we all brothers in Christ?

I hope your God isn't the Christian God because that sure as shit didn't sound very christian to me.

Gravdigr · 03-20-2018, 03:18 PM

I never said I was a good Christian.

Just forgiven.

Well, they're interring his ashes in a church, so perhaps that will bring you some peace. he won't give a shit.

While we wait for the next dead guy, here's an interesting Fresh Air from yesterday.

The author had a very similar evolution to my own.

Given Stephen Hawking's atheism, it's a puzzle that his ashes are to be interred in Westminster Abbey.

As has been posted, it doesn't matter to him but all the same...

Quote:

Professor Stephen Hawking to be honoured at the Abbey

Westminster Abbey has today announced that there will be a Service of Thanksgiving later in the year for Professor Stephen Hawking, during which his ashes will be interred in the Abbey near the grave of Sir Isaac Newton.

The Dean of Westminster, the Very Reverend Dr John Hall, said today:

It is entirely fitting that the remains of Professor Stephen Hawking are to be buried in the Abbey, near those of distinguished fellow scientists. Sir Isaac Newton was buried in the Abbey in 1727.
Charles Darwin was buried beside Isaac Newton in 1882. Other famous scientists are buried or memorialised nearby, the most recent burials being those of atomic physicists Ernest Rutherford in 1937 and Joseph John Thomson in 1940.
We believe it to be vital that science and religion work together to seek to answer the great questions of the mystery of life and of the universe.

Why is it always Religion v Atheism? Poor agnostics never get a look in.

It's not religious, it's political.

Most atheists are agnostic, and vice versa.

Borne of a wish never to offend. Which is why I voted for them.

The SDP that is, not the agnostics. Just once.

I can't think why I have him noted as "the enemy" in my failing memory. Can't even remember his main competition now to think who I might have been supporting. Probably someone northern
