Race For the "God Particle" Heats Up

SpuriousLogic writes "CERN is losing ground rapidly in the race to discover the elusive Higgs boson, its American rival claims. Fermilab say the odds of their Tevatron accelerator finding it first are now 50-50 at worst, and up to 96% at best. CERN's Lyn Evans admitted the accident which will halt the $7B Large Hadron Collider until September may cost them one of the biggest prizes in physics."

It's annoying on so many levels.

Annoying to you. Refreshing to others, also on many levels.

Lookit, you slipped in "C.E." for "A.D." when nobody was looking, but you're going to have to fight us for this one...

Just as the religious people are hoping for the Second Coming to say to the atheists. Oh Oh here is God he about to put the smack down on you. You should have lived your life based on these values, and now you gonna pay.

What kind of fucking morons think that way? Just because you're an atheist doesn't mean you can go around killing, raping, stealing, etc.

We just don't need a fuckin' book to tell us good from wrong. It's called morals and common sense.

I'm a vegan because I know killing animals is wrong, but these idiots keep killing and eating them because a stupid book tells them it's okay to do so?

Let me laugh.

You are judged by your actions. It's called Karma, and going to church isn't going to erase the fact that you beat up your wife, have a drinking problem, are an asshole, etc.
