Do you think that Hawking would have made even greater contributions to science if he wasn't crippled than he has in the state he is now in? Would he be regarded as an even greater genius (Einstein tier) or would nobody care about him because being the weird robot guy is the main reason he is famous in the first place?

>> No.1583947

Isn't he famous for writing popsci, a few interesting books, and discovering some kind of radiation?

>> No.1583952

What is really lolsome is that when its concluded that the lorentz invariance doesn't work at all scales; all his work will be for nothing.

>> No.1583954

no, but he would have licked your mother pussy more frequently.

>> No.1583970

He has Cerebral Palsy for the record. He is a real human interest story. He's disabled, and well bodied people are lazy as fuck and doing nothing. He did a few books, and got his name on Hawking Radiation

It has recently been discovered that Hawking's machine was misinterpreting his movements. What he has been saying all the time was "Please kill me" over and over again. Instead the machine said random shit about physics that doesn't make any sense.

>> No.1583992

He'd be less notable if he were not crippled. Still notable, especially since people seem to dig black holes.

We know that, but can he make flip flop a new fashion rule for women in their mid-forties and rappers?
I don't think so!

lawl ALS != muscular dystrophy

No doubt he'd be less notable as a healthy person, but I wonder if his focus is partly due to his disease. I mean maybe he'd rather be out playing frisbee and fucking shemales all day, instead he's sat inside most of his life reading books and thinking about shit.

Your other point is valid though.

I remember watching a few documentaries on his life. They mentioned that he wasn't even serious about his degree before the disease started. He only started to get serious when his disease started to take full effect and he still wanted to contribute to the world.

look up 'fallacies'

creationists tend to fuck up and use every fallacy
it's fun to point out to them which fallacy they're using

Look up "false assumptions"
Atheists tend to make "false assumptions" often.
Especially when talking about creation.
They also seem to skip major parts of life to create further "false assumptions",

Like the fact they have a front and a back, 2 opposite sides and a top and bottom. Or how they can look/move forwards and backwards, up or down and left or right - they tend to claim "troll" another "false assumption" when addressed with this point.

Once asked, "what type of universe are we in?" they usually make the "false assumption" of "a strange one" rather than the obvious "cubic" one. Seeing as the earth is round and not flat, I find this interesting. Perhaps it's through education that Atheists develop some kind of dodgey input, where they see life as a bunch of equations and words, rather than the true image.

i'm not talking about athiests i'm talking about people who don't use reason
anyone who doesn't look at evidence to come to concluisons is stupid
anyone who uses a book to prove something simply because the book says it's true is stupid

saying we live in a strange universe isn't implying we don't live in 3d, nor is it implying we live in a universe which has expanded in the shape of a cube

flat universe

As if the evidence is in books, rather than through observing. You're so fucking poisoned, you're beyond help. You think this is reality because you accept it as so, when really it's a false illusion.

Explain to me how the universe was created, before the big bang you don't know, you have huge theories which are basically long lists of words. You seem the believe that to understand the universe you have to become educated in science, when really, you just need to observe life, and notice the similarities.

I know, without previous education, that defined "time" and defined "attraction" created the universe. It's a fact to me, as that's exactly how we create babies. We use time, and love, to breed. It's also how we eat, we use time, and use food which we are attracted to, to eat..
