Mark said to Adrie:
If what you guys are suggesting is an attitude of humility and reverence, then
I must add that I have been to lectures presented by Hawkins. I can tell you
that the expression on his face is one of arrogance and disdain... There was
an interview with the coauthor a few weeks ago on NPR or some affiliate. There
is no suggestion of humility there either. My way or the highway. In fact the
suggestion was of the disproval of God. Now Andrie, from reading the book,
would you say this is correct?
dmb says:
You're going to dismiss one of the world's greatest scientist because of the
look on his face? Mark, buddy, dude. That would be ridiculous even if he didn't
have a disfiguring and paralyzing disease, but he does. What cruel nonsense! Is
that supposed to be some kind of sick joke, or what?
Can you imagine how desperately anyone in his situation would like to have an
expressive face and a voice of his own?
I heard an interview or two with the co-author and he was quite eager to
dispute the notion that their book denied the existence of God. Their actual
claim, he insisted, was that God was not part of their physical explanations,
that it isn't necessary to invoke God in physics.
