We are here to evolve and that is done through science, it is the Human mission, if we were not wasting all of our time and money on crap that means absolutely nothing in the scheme of the Universe we would be off this planet and have out post that would insure the continuation of our species. That is the human mission survival, it is built into our being, when your body senses danger your fight or flight kicks in whether you like it or not. That is what fear is, it is very exciting and why people like the so called extreme sports. We are meant to find a way off this rock and we are wasting all of our precious time and energy and mundane bullshit...disgusting species we are...

There's a story that says that Leon Lederer, who wrote a book called The God Particle (not a bad read), wanted to call it The God-Damned Particle, since it was so hard to find, but ended up changing it.

Because of that book's original title some physicists do attach a quasi-theological meaning to it, even if they're just looking to find a model for intelligent design in the universe but not necessarily the "god-designed" universe creationists are so insistent on, just a more elegant and thus spiritual universe. (It still wouldn't conflict with FZ's belief that we're all just, "temporary bags of electrochemical shit.")
