While I would wholeheartedly agree that we have no reason to think that a deity was involved I also disagree with stating that we are certain that no deity was involved.

Where does the quote say that?

quote:
"THE Big Bang was the result of the inevitable laws of physics and did not need God to spark the creation of the universe, Stephen Hawking has concluded."

You seem to be reading something into it that is not there.

quote:
did not need God

I am not sure what Hawking is actually saying but the provided quote does not say at all that there was definitely no deity involved. Al it is saying is that no deity was necessary.

Re: Hhhm, no he did what so many do.

If you are proposing to do a survey here and claim no agenda, maybe, just maybe you should not be posting to threads that would possibly expose your OLV(or whatever the hell acronym you used.)

Re: Hhhm, no he did what so many do.

So you also see the bias.

That is the issue. A person doing a survery should show no bias. You also agree that you see a bias. The survey is biased by the fact the people being surveyed know the bias of the person doing the survey.
