Stephen Hawking 8 January 1942-14March 2018

Probably the most famous physicist of our time, Stephen Hawking, has become known in the popular world for his popular books that delve into philosophy and religion. He was reported as claiming: The belief that heaven or an afterlife awaits us is a ‘fairy story’ for people afraid of death. It’s now unfortunately too late for Hawking, but it’s not too late for anyone reading this! There really is Good News!
