Hawking

Stephen Hawking recently said:

"I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark."

I'm grateful for him. He calls it like he see it, and I see it the same way. There is nothing wrong with a reality based existence and atheists shouldn't have to feel the need to keep that to themselves for fear of offending someone who believes in space ghosts.
