Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Generates a 'Mini-Big Bang'

buildslave writes "The Large Hadron Collider has successfully created a 'mini-Big Bang' by smashing together lead ions instead of protons. The scientists working at the enormous machine on the Franco-Swiss border achieved the unique conditions on 7 November. The experiment created temperatures a million times hotter than the center of the Sun."

    Several billions of civilizations evolved and died until that universe dissipated. Many of them had some "god" theory. Only a few of these, however, involved a bearded fellow in sneakers eating a chicken burrito for lunch during the process of creation. These civilizations tended to self-destruct over time from excessive gallows humor and binge drinking.

    I always thought it was funny that creationists insist that their deity, with infinite knowledge and power, made static creatures that can't adapt to their environment. So he'd have to constantly monitor and adjust the environment to keep it compatible with all those poorly designed creatures?

    Creationist god is a Windows sysadmin?
