Stephen Hawking on death.
 
"I have lived with the prospect of an early death for the last 49 years. I'm not afraid of death, but I'm in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first. I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark."

We do have an eternal soul so ...

Sucks to be him.
His own theories prove there is a purpose and a god.

seeandsee 05-16-2011 05:19 PM

He is done with his black holes etc, maybe he finds a way to contact us from after life

adultchatpay 05-16-2011 05:21 PM

i think his theories will be remembered

SomeCreep 05-16-2011 07:40 PM

When asked if he believed in god, Stephen Hawking has always stated that he believes in the laws of physics.

twistyneck 05-16-2011 07:46 PM

If he's so smart why doesn't he work to cure himself?

How do you explain out of body experiences where people in accidents have known the conversations people were having with each other blocks away from the accident scene?

ottopottomouse 05-17-2011 02:45 AM

He's got far too much time to fill where all he can do is sit and think. I would have gone insane years ago in his situation.

His analogy that we're all computers... that makes me a ZX Spectrum, and means I was obsolete years ago... get me to computer hell now !

How do you explain alien abductions? :)
People make up things, not necessarily deliberately.

The same way I explain alien abductions, yeti sightings or images of Christ in someone's burnt toast (over-active imagination). Near-death experiences are random although religious/spiritual people will tell you that they're evidence of an afterlife.

Both of my parents are ICU nurses. They've talked to lots of people who have had near-death experiences. The experiences people have are random. Most people see nothing, some see a bright light, some hear what is going on in the room, some have strange dreams. The brain is still very much alive even when the heart isn't beating. The drugs and intense electrical shocks delivered to the body to restart the heart are a much more likely explanation for why near-death experiences happen.

I met him once, was living in Cambridge and he was motoring down the pavement, so I went and said hello and I'd found his book fascinating, he pressed a button on his computer and I got a robotic 'thank you' and he motored off.

Mutt 05-17-2011 05:29 AM

not exactly earth shattering, hundreds of millions of people feel the same way. his thoughts on the subject are worth no more than anybody's else. what we know today about physics, the origin of life, the universe is tiny - future generations hundreds of years from now will laugh at how primitive our knowledge is the same way we do at the Middle Ages.

there is no proof of an afterlife, and Hawkings and anbody else can't prove there isn't.

that being said, i'm pretty damn sure he's right but it has nothing to do with him being a prize winning physicist. he did win a Nobel Prize?

Ah yes, the age-old subject of what happens when we die. Everyone thinks they know. Some speak in absolutes, stating their opinion as fact. Ego is a terrible thing in the wrong hands, is it not?

Fact is only the dead know what happens when we die. And they ain't talking. :D

It's easy to talk to the dead, it's getting them to talk back that is the hard part! :winkwink:

..... What. The guy who created those theories disagrees with your "popular science" understanding of them.

We are no more biologically unique then anything else on this planet and even less important when you begin to comprehend our species life span in comparison to the age of our planet, solar system, galaxy, and universe.

We are terribly insignificant, there is no god, and nothing happens when you die - try and deal with it with a little more dignity then using imaginary deities and purposiveness fate.

It would be cool if you live inside your head forever, during the last seconds of brain activity -- kind of like that movie Jacob's Ladder. Except you'd be getting gangraped by the Laker Girls, instead of seeing demons.

seriously.....

This is inline with the world IQ drop and the "idiocracy" theory - stupid fucking people continue to have more kids than smart ones.

Year Population×109 Mean IQ
1950 2.55 91.64
1975 4.08 90.80
2000 6.07 89.20
2025 7.82 87.81
2050 9.06 86.32

Please tell me the GFY morons are not even entertaining the idea that Steven Hawking is an idiot or that you're questioning his theories.

His turds are smarter than everyone in this business combined.

Agree - geniuses, why not send your paper disproving his statements to some scientific journals? I'm sure the world is holding its collective breath to hear your wisdom.

Redrob 05-17-2011 08:49 AM

a lot of the papers he publishes are papers he bought from me off of ebay...

so, technically if you want to question his theories then you should be questioning me... :2 cents:

For someone who specializes in unproven theories based on solid knowledge I find it odd he says this, but for someone with his disease I can see how he comes to this conclusion.

Contemplating the unknown, takes you to the unknown. What you bring back from the unknown is knowledge and/or theory and/or faith.

and not a thing you wrote provides an ounce of evidence/proof that an afterlife doesn't exist.

that's what pisses people off, the arrogance of humans who have just begun to scratch the surface of understanding making statements of fact when those statements are just arrogant assumptions.

i don't BELIEVE there is a God/Creator in the way fundamentalist religious people do nor do I believe in an afterlife but my beliefs sure aren't fact and neither are Stephen Hawkings or anybody else's.

go watch some more Star Trek.

Because being smart at physics and string theory doesn't make you smart about medicine? Jealous about being stupid on both?

No we don't. Those studies showing out of body experiences right before death = DMT induced. Chemical states. Regarding "souls" = paranormal activity = no credible proof

Theologically, the idea of an eternal soul was a Catholic absorption of pagan (greek) ideas. The Hebrew Torah doesn't have a concept of eternal soul or anthropomorphic dualism.
