> As for the content on the blogpost, it's kind of... well I've heard Hawking talk before that he has referred to God only as the initial creation event, and not at all as a physical/metaphysical entity. So it's kinda misleading to say he's "ditched God." In my eyes that ship has well sailed.

> I really must say again though, well done on the site!--I never thought Hawkings literally meant 'the mind of god'. He is like Einstein I think. I must second the 'well done'. Thanks for showing us the site. well worth following. By the way, Maimonides used only the first six verses to describe the Big Bang Theory about 900 years ago. Rabbi Sachs refers to all 36 verses for origin and I don't know why. Genesis really included origin and subsequest events.
