Note I did qualify by saying it's not quite the same. I think this particular case highlights the confusion about what to do in such situations involving sensibilities of other religions. I'll make my stance clear: The soldier should not have been asked to move and the potentially "offended"...

My Stepbrother was in the RAF posted to NI. When they were off base and off duty they were not allowed to wear uniform as it drew anger from people. Same when he was in Germany. My Dad in the Navy, posted to Portland, when they headed to the mainland to go on the lash they were advised not to...

You know you could have saved yourself 10 years of meditation and just watched a few Russell Brand Youtubes and some Beatles interviews from the late '60's to come to the same 6th form humanities studies conclusion.

This. Religious people seem to be under the impression that atheists are engaged in some all out tirade against religion. Simply not the case.

I haven't .

Exactly. Usual anti immigrant/right wing lot frothing at the mouth to defend something that doesn't need defending. Taking offence on behalf of others.

Can't you just make your point without feeling the need to goad others? It really does cheapen this man's story and makes me question how much you actually care about him or how much you are just a trolling pot stirrer. Pretty abhorant that you can attempt to turn a story like this into a...

All down to Boris and Dave. No moral fibre. Boris is a particularly nasty piece of work, instructing architects to "design the homeless out of London".

Well, there's limits!

Ha! I deserve everything I get on here, first to admit it!

Aha! I do apologise. Thanks for the grace with which you pointed that out ;-)

The title The God Particle is a publicists dream title. It conjures up iconography that will appeal to millions. Nothing more than that. Now I'm off to conjure up a bottle or two of Sussex.

I don't think anyone in their right mind will be taking the name literally. Religious sorts maybe. Calling it God does not make it so, anymore than sticking feathers up a dogs arse makes it a chicken.

I think it's great and I'm going to replace my chunky plugs with these as soon as I can but to hail this lad as some kind of design genius when one can simply google about 12 products working on the same principle that have been on the market since 2012 is a bit over the top. Good on him though...

I'm no Newton but I don't think that moniker is meant to be taken literally.

I believe this is from a different designer and been about for a while? http://www.themu.co.uk

I'm still none the wiser as to what your ramblings about "it all registers in the field" mean. I believe you have reverted to talking utter cobblers. For that reason, I'm out.

This idea has been around for some time . I believe Apple ship some products with a very similar plug. It's good but it's not new.

Sorry, but what does that actually mean? As for asking what the Higgs Boson will mean for spirituality, well spiritual/religious people will inevitably put their own spin on it according to their individual beliefs. That won't make their opinions fact.

Please do read my edited response, which expands on my answer. That article raises a few good points but also makes the assumption that people regard all scientists as spectacle wearing athiests, which I certainly do not.
