-Stephen Hawking
I don't understand how someone can truly believe that statement. What about taking into consideration feelings and promptings of the spirit. If we were just a computer, logic would reign. Matters of the heart and soul would instead be logical decisions. I don't think relationships would be so important and critical to our happiness. Our bodies are an amazing compilation of systems which coordinate to allow our spirits to experience mortality.
Seriously, what a sad way to live. There really is so much more to us. And if there was nothing more, what would be the purpose? I also don't understand why people think that believing is somehow weak or childish, "for people afraid of the dark." Maybe people are afraid of the light- afraid to hope or believe in anything. This is becoming so popular in our society that I think it sometimes takes more courage to stand for faith.
