Is Gravity God ?
After all these years we’ve still never understood Gravity. Could Gravity be God. The Creator, the wise and eternal beginning of everything.
In his new book, The Grand Design, Professor Stephen Hawking claims that the Big Bang, rather than starting the entire universe , was inevitable due to the law of gravity.
Hawking previously had seemed to accept God as part of the creation of the universe. But now he has reached the conclusion that a creator is “not necessary”.
“Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing,” he writes. “Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist. “It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going.”
A new fascination with Gravity as the supreme ruler seems to have taken hold in the Artistic world with musical artists as diverse as John Mayer, Switchfoot and Abraham Cloud singing it’s praises. On Cloud’s
poignant, “Cruelty of Gravity,” he writes ….. ” I could die in my sleep tonight, never knowing I’d been alive. 10,000 children have died today. Does it really matter ? ”
