The Universe is Not God's Creation

British physicist Stephen Hawking believes that human existence and the universe is not the result of God's creation, but it rather present themselves. Because there is no law of gravity, the universe can create itself.

He claims no godlike power that can explain why the universe was formed.

In the last book, The Grand Design, was quoted by The Times, Hawking explains "Because there is no law of gravity, the universe can and will create itself."

In the book A Brief History of Time, Professor Hawking does not deny the possibility of God didn’t participate in creation of world.

He wrote in his book in 1988, "If we discover a complete theory, then it is a triumph of human reason. Therefore, we will know the Lord."

Hawking, in his latest book, reject Isaac Newton's theory which states that the creation of the universe is not formed spontaneously but is driven by God.

Stephen William Hawking was born in Oxford, January 8, 1942 is an expert in theoretical physics. He was the son of a professor of mathematics at Cambridge University.

In a scientific pursuit, Hawking is famous for his contributions in the field of quantum physics. In the field of religion, according to his former wife, Jane, Hawking is an atheist. But, Hawking admitted that he "was not religious in a common sense" and he believed that "the universe is governed by the laws of science. Laws may be made by God, but God does not intervene to break the law."
