Hi Lauriellen,
Yea I watched it, with Stephen Hawking renowned British scientist, the show title "Is There a Creator?"
Hawking explained that the universe could have started from nothing. That in experiments we can see how sub-atomic particles are seen to just pop in and out of existence, from nowhere. Now since the Big Bang started out smaller than an atom, the universe likely 'popped' into existence - Big Bang. Now since nothing/nobody was needed to start the creation the universe, there was no need for a creator.
Also his idea was that time started with the Big Bang, so before that there was no time and therefore nothing else, alas no God. His argument was very weak to me, just looking for some reasonable (to him) explanation to satisfy his scientific mind. But there were many time during the show that they explained things that happened, as the universe was developing, as 'lucky' that it went the way it did. Many times there was no attempt to explain how/why something happened, just that it did.
So I guess you can tell, even though he is a great scientist of our time, I was not impressed with his commentary on God. But I loved the amazing images they had developed to show the grandeur of the universe and the many spectacular things that are out there and how they made it look real and come alive.
