LHC. REPRESENT, GANGSTAS. Just...don't try doing the hand-sign, you have no idea how complex it is to try to form a particle-accelerator-matrix shape with your hands...

Wouldn't matter what you place in front of a theistic mind ...it is so totally closed to the idea of question and curiosity to the point where it will NEVER know anything other than it's stupid puny little mantras stolen from more enlightened religions from aeons past.

Yay! Black hole!
The collider has uncovered some interesting data hasn't it. Trying to understand where all this came from. I bet religious nuts hate it. Knowing that we're probably one experiment away from revealing the truth about the universe.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Much more interesting than grovelling in some moth eaten building, over dressed, on a Sunday morning. Thumb up

Of course they are. Why do you think there was all that panic [mostly from religious institutions who were baying and shrieking about "playing god"] about the LHC before it went online? People heard "black hole generator" and were like "THAT MUST MEAN THEY'RE GOING TO DESTROY US ALL!! WE KNEW IT, SCIENCE WANTS TO DESTROY EVERYTHING!!"

Science = understanding what is not understood.
The human mind = 90% fear of the darkness, 10% curiosity to shine light into it.
Religions = Every step science takes is one step further from its control over the masses.
