Approaching the Discovery of the "God Particle"

GENEVA -- Scientists working at the world's biggest atom smasher plan to announce Wednesday that they have gathered enough evidence to show that the long-sought "God particle" answering fundamental questions about the universe almost certainly does exist.

But after decades of work and billions of dollars spent, researchers at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, or CERN, aren't quite ready to say they've "discovered" the particle.

This is some cool stuff. It would be amazing if they really have discovered the particle. I have to wonder just what they plan to say about it on Wednesday. If they have found it, and can use that to fully understand how the universe was formed, that would be great. I would love to see a full on scientific reason for the creation of the universe. That, and it would go a long way to telling the religious crazies to stop trying to force their creation myths (and the rest of their religion) down the throats of others.

If we do manage to discover it, that would be great! Just think of all the things we could learn!

I really want to learn all there is about the creation of the universe. It's the one peace of the puzzle that makes it hard for me to completely doubt the existence of a higher power. :XD:

Maybe, maybe not. :XD:

New article

It's official, they've discovered a new particle! Now, whether it's the Higgs Boson or not is still under debate, but we definitely have achieved a new discovery! We're one step closer to finding out how the universe was created! I hope this leads us on the path to more discoveries!

Oh, they did find a new particle? That's amazing! I hope they find out all kinds of neat stuff about it!

Oh wow, that video is quite funny at the end! I do agree that it would be a better discovery if it didn't completely fall into line with the Standard Model, though.

I like how he ended up losing a bet on the discovery. Well, it's only a hundred dollars, right?
