LONDON - GOD no longer has any place in theories on the creation of the Universe due to a series of developments in physics, British scientist Stephen Hawking said in extracts published on Thursday from a new book.
In a hardening of the more accommodating position on religion that he took in his 1988 international best-seller 'A Brief History of Time', Dr Hawking said the Big Bang was merely the consequence of the law of gravity.
'Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist,' he writes in 'The Grand Design', which is being serialised by The Times newspaper. 'It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going,' added the wheelchair-bound expert.
Dr Hawking has achieved worldwide fame for his research, writing and television documentaries despite suffering since the age of 21 motor neurone disease that has left him disabled and dependent on a voice synthesiser.

if u had even read the article properly, Professor Hawking said that God DID NOT create the Universe, he did not state that God did not exist.
