Musket,
Like I said Keith, start your posts with "according to present understanding" rather than "Hawking said it only the other day" and you might be less readily dismissed.

That goes without saying Musket.
No-one thinks I am a leading astrophysicist or historian! My knowledge is just the present understanding of physicists and historians.
As it changes, I will follow the new understanding.
Who are you to "dismiss" and "laugh" at the present understanding of Hawking and his fellow theorists, or historians?

Donuel's stuff is not "according to present understanding."
It is just his beliefs.
