"God Particle" remains a Theoretical Myth

Despite years of searching, scientists have yet to detect the Higgs boson (God Particle) directly. This week the news has been, as it always is, just a ploy to keep this expensive piece of machinery in the news and fund-able for the "scientists" in charge.

Now physicists at the Tevatron particle accelerator at Illinois' Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory report hints in their data that suggest the particle may exist with a mass between 115 to 135 giga-electron volts, or GeV (for comparison, a proton has a mass of about 0.938 GeV).

However, in neither case could the researchers confirm for sure that what they see is a new particle and not simply signals created by background events. More data must be gathered before the signals can be considered statistically significant enough to qualify as a discovery.

And so the search continues for the Higgs boson "god particle". Have fun with your expensive toy boys. No matter what you find, the result is, and always has been - God did it.
