[QUOTE="ragnarok874"]

After watching Horizon a few weeks ago (on BBC2) - the Large Hadron Collider in Long Island will be used to search for the existence of a particle called a 'Higgs Particle' - this, theoretically, holds matter together. If the scientist do not find this particle then there is some belief that this may go some way to proving the existence of God, or in other terms, not discout the presence of God (I think it's the Long Island facility which is performing this experiment, not CERN). If they do not find the perticle, then the scientists would need to come up with another theory of how matter is held together.

Now I will go and lie down while my head cools down... :D

So whilst we don't know how things work, we should just say god did it?

As I stated, this may go some way (but not all) down the path of proving that a creating entity (God, Allah, Buddha etc.) exists. I was a bit sceptical during the description in the programme as to how they can categorically state that one (or more) of these Higgs particles won't be missed by the detectors, so (even though I am a christian, of sorts) I would not think that one experiment would prove such an existence. It also seems rational that these scientists may discover a completely seperate particle which may fulfil the same role as a Higgs particle but is of a different nature.

Reading and Spurs, in that order (I'm from Reading, and my great-grandfather played for (and captained) both clubs in the 1920'/30's.)

Mine was an MMORPG- can't remember what it was called though, it was about 6 years ago and was heavily plugged on this game channel on Sky (channel was Itlaian - they hardly ever spoke English in it!) If anyone can help me with the name I'd be grateful - there were two, and the one I played was the second of them... :)

[QUOTE="darklord888"]Clone Wars(only counting Ep1), Empire strikes back, Terminator 2, RotK, Aliens, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Clerks 2.REforever101

i thought clerks 1 was a lot funnier

You must admit though, Kinky Kelly and the Sexy Stud was the funniest bit in both movies! 'Oh sh*t, gotta finish...' :D

They're not bad... better when they slip the old school death metal stylings in, like Obituary style riffs etc.

Something similar to H.P. Lovecraft.......

..........actually it doesn't have to be similar, just creepy and frightening as hell!

I just saw the topic title and thought 'The Rats in the Walls' by H.P. Lovecraft... only story to make me feel scared... and I was 29 when I read it!! I'm not usually into horror though, so other than that I can't really recommend anything.

I like some Doom Metal, like Cathedral, Place of Skulls, some Black Sabbath (some people don't know that it's doom), not sure if The Hidden Hand or Spirit Caravan are doom though..Efielret

THH is Scott 'Wino' Weinrich's band... the godafther of modern doom! Anyone who was in St Vitus and The Obsessed must be doom!

[QUOTE="SimpJee"]Only DM band I like is My Dying Bride. Love that band.SimpJee

Great band, but you'd probably like early(ish) Paradise Lost as well. Katatonia, Opeth and Anathema are all good bands too.

I like Opeth a lot, I've heard of Katatonia and Anathema but haven't listened to them yet. Haven't heard any Paradise Lost either.

Katatonia and Opeth have shared members through most of their history, but Katatonia use clean vocals and have a similar musical style to Opeth, mayby not as Death-y. Anathema are an English Doom band, went from Death/Doom, like MDB and Paradise Lost, to a more clean style, over a number of albums. Paradise Lost did the same - I would highly recommend any of these bands as they rank highly amongst my favourites.
