You mean Stephen Hawkings ?

 

Not being religious means your at least one giant step ahead of religious people. Most religious people are hypocrites anyway. Just adhering to the teachings they feel are important and ignoring others. The world would be a far better place without religion. 

I totally agree with you!. Stephen Hawkings was a very great scientist and certainly not 'The ramblings of a wheel chair bound computer voiced dribbler' which I take as a very insulting thing to say about a very great man who sadly is no longer with us.

Stephen Hawking was undoubtedly a very clever man but I wonder just how much his fame was owed to his very unfortunate disability.

 

There are equally brilliant physicists and mathematicians out there who do not get the same acclamation.  Roger Penrose comes to mind.  Hawking's equal in many ways but how many people outside of the scientific community have even heard of him!

 

Well I for one, a very great scientist.

Your insulted? yet never met the man. Strange.

I’d look for a refund ‘cause that car looks pretty screwed to me.

Is he insulted or are you insulted?  

Quite hard for a dead person to be insulted unless you believe that he is floating on some cloud looking down or burning down in hell (or whatever other afterlives are promoted)

Who knows where he is.  I would imagine that thinking he is floating on a cloud is as absurd as believing he was actually capable of talking and not fully brain dead.

In the picture the cab of the pick-up looks undamaged, (maybe there are pictures I've not seen) or maybe he was actually wearing the seat belt and the air-bags worked. Not that I wish to downgrade the amulet story.

To answer that might I fear have the OP drifting off course abit .. But you can buy Dalek charms which while not a full on amulet may provide a degree of protection if you see any out and about .. 

 

Ah swinging daleks around your neck. Didn't they have a hit with The Hippy Hippy Shake?

 

[cygan]

I agree with Chassa, It was neither Buddha or amulet it was Nils Bohlin & Allen Breed followed by Yasuzaburou Kobori all engineers, do some research fellas. Also following the scientist arguments it is well worth reading Nikola Teslas' quote about scientists.

No you totally missed the initial point. Not everyone has the lucky amulets, some rely on the spirit of Stephen King, writers especially. They fear Misery.
The poor guy is more busy now than he was alive.

And these are the people we have to speak to logically and rationally to be allowed to stay here! Truly laughable.

Just show him some dumb Amulet in your  wallet, I'm sure that will win the day.

Incredible really 2020 and we  still have mumbo jumbo like this, the same Mumbo Jumbo available with any religion, Red  Bull and fairies don't give you wings, science and understanding does.

I  know lets  remove the airbags, crumple zones and seatbelts off all Police  cars, not that they wear the seat belts anyway.

Why not?

 

It never ceases to amaze me that Caucasians coming to Thailand reject the religion,the society and the culture outright whilst,of course,demanding that their superior Western views be acknowledged and catered for.

 

Which is quite odd given that most of them emerge from dull,joyless and soulless cities in the West..

 

In my 10 years in Thailand and 30 years in Oceania,Asia and India I never met a superior "Westerner" (definitely not in Thailand)..different sure..but intellectually,culturally and socially superior?'frayed knot.

 

That's this IO's view of the matter and,I am sure,that he is sticking with it.

 

Addit..I have a whole drawer full of amulets given to me on the last day in Thailand by the people in my village..I wear some from time to time and remember the good times..

Why do Ferangs find it nonsense.They have their Little Bloke on a Cross, a Geezer up in the Sky, and dont forget St Christopher who keeps You accident free.
