Here is the webcam from the LHC.
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 reviling the truth about the universe.
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.

Fuck, you're telling me.

They need that gap. It's the last place they have left for their god to hide in. They can't have anyone closing it with knowledge!
