He's an astrophysicist with a PhD. So he misspelled a word. So what?
What do you do for a living? What have you accomplished with your life?

If there is a God its probable a Deist God because a Loving God is so unlikely to exist.

Who said the designer was perfect? The big three religions. What if the creator doesn't care? Exactly. Why not then ignore the prospect all together and use evidence to shape our beliefs? That is exactly what beyond belief 2006 was all about.

"An entertainment complex in the middle of a sewage system." So right. There is so much in the human body that can be seen as unintelligent design. Obvious from an evolutionary standpoint as evolution cannot do anything but take what it is given and make minor changes. But totally fucking stupid if God did it. The human eye is wired backwards. No fucking intelligent designer did that. Maybe a designer off his head on cannabis, but even then a stupid one.

The Bible and Quran are bullshit.
