I like it, but...

Read a little more into it. I was as sceptical as you, till I studied further. Difficult to get your head round, I'm still struggling but well worth the time.
All the energy in the universe adds up to 0. Energy and dark energy. How Hawking put it, by creating a hill you end up creating a hole, the negative version of the hill. So you don't require energy/matter to create the universe. Also sub-atomic particles such a photons do pop in and out of existence, literally self-created and destroyed, and it doesn't violate the laws of nature. The fact that no energy is required for a universe and there being no time before the big bang, perhaps nothing created the universe. A spontaneous expansion.
Bloody interesting. Big Grin
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

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.
