His quote about us being advanced monkeys living on a average star blows my mind. When you think about it, we do look like monkeys without all the hair, so it could be true. As far as us being on a average star, that could be true also if there is way more advanced life in the universe.

If his quote is true, then humans are not as special as we’ve convinced ourselves to think we are. To me that is heavy thinking.

Let me also add – I had considered watching the movie “The Theory Of Everything” which was supposed to be a story about his life.

However, after reading that “The film takes various dramatic liberties with the history it portrays.” – and the “scale” of those liberties are so “usually wide” that the story “becomes almost dishonest” – I decided to pass on it.

What a missed opportunity.

He also suggested that the existence of God was not necessary to explain the origin of the universe, but later came to the realization that the existence of God was also compatible with an open universe. […]

Love.This.

Much has been said about his brilliant mind…and rightly so. I’ve always relished any opportunity to learn from a genuine “Thinker.”

But what I found even more admirable about Hawking was the man himself – his indomitable Spirit while physically trapped in the prison of his own body affected by such a dreadful and debilitating disease.

May his mind and Spirit be granted the gift of exploring the entire Universe. And when his curiosity is thoroughly quenched……

May he Rest in Peace.
