Aim, you make some good points. My religous view is Christian (albeit non-legalistic), but I dont personally discuss that on this board as its more of an open fourm. I think what Hawkings means is that if you pray to have your cancer cured, there is no guarantee that God will provide. Science cannot tell us when an Earthquake will hit LA. Hawkings argument is that even though God knows when an earthquake will hit LA, he doesnt tell us, so therefore it becomes a moot point for him.
