So that's what Canon Law is all about. Particles.

Is this supposed to be a two dimensional joke regarding the use of the term "God Particle" or a poke at science in general?

When dealing w/ science or physics it always comes back to Einstein. Several have made names for themselves - writting books to contradict Einstein - only to retract - once famous. He knew more than he allowed known to the common (monkey) was tricked once & put the splitting of the atom in the wrong hands - fool me once - well that's another story .

Science finding God? Anything that ever is was once imagined.

I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
Albert Einstein

“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”

I would not poke fun at the scientists. Even when wrong they often
create a spinnoff of useful data.

But the "God Particle" tag has a amusing connotation and is worth
a play.

Too bad more kids aren't taking science and math in school.
Spock/Obama home ec. doesn't cut it

I read an article that tried to explain the role of a HB and it likened it to a celebrity that everyone in the room ignored... maybe "God Particle" is appropriate.



Personally, I think science has a much more accurate description of our surroundings than the fairy tale that was offered/pounded into me throughout childhood. If I am cynical, I also hope I am wrong and therefore characterize myself as agnostic or a hopeful non-practicer.

Trouble is, except for a few programs, the average Public School
curriculum is aimed at the dimmest bulbs in the classroom. The
dropouts, especially with the bright ones, are usually from boredom.
Personally I believe the classes should all be challenging and
achieving an "A" or a 4,0 should be a rare event and treated as such.

Fairy tales of old are good lesson conveyers. Now days the term
is used to describe a behavoral anomaly.

Naive me. I used to think the drags were about E.Ts and stock
and modified cars.

Won't quibble about the motto. Again many take no pride in the
quality of their efforts. The give nothing and reap nothing.
