I want the cultures of all the lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible.
But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any.

Stephen Hawking is an atheist Scientist of Western World and the question that he has asked doesnot seem scientific from any angle.



I think we should discuss this question in this thread.

He asked:
In a world that is in chaos politically, socially and environmentally, how can the human race sustain another 100 years?

Answer:


No doubt that our world is suffering from political, social and environmental problems and these main issues can effect the survival of human race on earth another 100 years but this question doesnot seem a Scientific one.

The damage to environment that is being done is by the inhabitant of this world like Industrial and automobile pollution that is damaging our ozon layer and other types of problems and the Creator of this Universe is not responsible for it. It is just like a manufacturer who manufactures a machine or device and distributes to the stores and where people after purchasing those devices/machines miss use them and the manufacturer is not responsible for it.

In the similar way the Creator of this Universe is not responsible for what ever damage that is being done to this environment by the people . I request Stephen Hawking to provide explicit evidences to support his claim that for another 100 years, human race will not be able to survive?

He should present clear Scientific evidences drawing attention to the pace at which the ozon layer is reducing and the pace with which the pollution and other problem is increasing.

Are you sure that if within this period we will be able to move to moon?
