Hawking ditches God (The atheist delusion)

Actually, having just listened to the last part of Krauss's talk I was a bit disappointed with it. He left out some bits that he was going to say and ended up with a question about infinity, which he answered with the Hilbert's Hotel story. All the rest of his talk seems to me to imply that the universe is finite. It is only infinite in the sense that the universe goes on expanding, and doesn't come to a definite big crunch type end.-The latest studies in astronomy using gravitational 'lensing' has confirmed that space is flat and will expand forever, confirming Krauss. I noted this in a previous entry within the past two weeks.
