Looking for the God Particle
Looking for the God Particle
We, in a cave under France,
looked for indivisible essence.
We smashed protons together
and looked for God in the scatter.
If we find God, the search is over.
We don't want it to be over.

Re: Looking for the God Particle
People prove their ignorance daily.
Good God!
God is a three letter word for hope.
Hope particles is what is scattered.France had to use that cave for some thing.
God it wasn't unless scientific minds said so.Truth cannot be held in hands. not in words.
We the People of Earth eat, drink, speak.We the People of Earth laugh, cry, piss and shit.
We the People of Earth use our minds to bullshit.God smiles in Silence. God is Silence.
Good God!

Re: Looking for the God Particle
God is silence.
And godawful noise.
And everything in between.
Everyone wants a piece of God,
always a potent marketing ploy.

Re: Looking for the God Particle
I looked and then I had a l s d
I saw God- but he was hiding in each one of us- because that is the last place I would look? Ha ha laughing buddah
Huge waves and their riders
Pop and bob in the great Pacific Ocean
Tre statue that Gordon and malia put next to the riverI never went down riveri did like Jesus- and sitting Bull -I like the black elks
The heat of the desert had me seeing things
- too hot-sleep and breathe

reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
Re: Looking for the God Particle
even Einstein knew the e were things that probably couldn't be explained by science...and whatever that magic is. it seems we all want to believe there is something more than the mundane drudgery of trying to survive...something beautiful...where everyone is ok.....no more suffering of any kind....and to that end we have our interpretation of "God"....personalized for each of us....It may be the forest, it may a river....humans I feel, need to believe in things they cannot prove...or disprove

Always searching for how to live, how to live, how to live, and why.

Re: Looking for the God Particle
I seem to recall reading that the term "God particle" was coined by a NYT journalist covering the search for the Higgs. The physicists at the LHC were more inclined to refer to the elusive entity as "that goddamned particle"...

Re: Looking for the God Particle
Looking for the God Particle..? Really?
Looking for the God Particle..? Really?
As if any God would possess a "Particle"..!
Science must have something to chase... something to know.., something to deny or else there wouldn't be science.

Re: Looking for the God Particle
I think the idea was that a particle might "possess" God. It might be split so many times that we could read the essence of the universe. And maybe even explain gravity!
Re: Looking for the God Particle
The notion of an association with "God" was not proposed by science, but by the laymen attempting to report it in an accessible manner. It was just a colorful metaphor some reporter dreamed up. The Higgs is an attempt to find a reason, some underlying structure to explain, why the individual particles have the mass they do. They're all over the place - protons are some 1800 times more massive than electrons. Why? I don't understand the theory, but it has something to do with how they interact with a "Higgs field" - more massive particles interract with it more strongly than lighter particles. The Higgs boson - the "God" particle - is the carrier of that field, just as photons are carriers of the electromagnetic field. By itself it doesn't explain the disparity among particle weights - but it provides insight into a mechanism that may lead to a fuller understanding.

Re: Looking for the God Particle
That's how I understood it too. The "deific particle" field somehow bestows mass on other particles interacting with it, "just passing through"... Wild stuff, though still not much more than trying to seek answers to childlike questions like "why do things weigh what they weigh?"..
Re: Looking for the God Particle
Nor no less than that. Wasn't it Picasso who once said it took a long time to learn to draw like a child? Our educational system takes great pains to teach us from an early age that such fundamental questions are "foolish" and "childlike".
