R.I.P. Stephen Hawking

He was one of the brightest minds of the 20th century and his brilliance continued into the 21st, but sadly he will no longer be thrilling billions with his intellect. Stephen Hawking taught and inspired so many people over his lifetime it was incredible. For someone diagnosed with such a horrible and debilitating disease at the age of 21, he lived a long life and brought so much to humanity. Mankind truly lost a great one earlier this morning. He may have been an atheist but that won’t stop me from praying for his family and his soul.

Rest In Peace.

In honor of all his contributions to science and philosophy over the years I’m gonna make sure to finally read his groundbreaking book…A Brief History of Time next month for my science reading selection.
