Why do people buy into this stupidity? it's a nebula, nothing more.

Relax, I don't think anyone here buys into it.

No we won't! You are wrong!  :laugh:

The problem is that some people react viscerally to the "G-Word" even when it's used metaphorically. IMO they need to take some Zanax, or a bottle of Jack, and chill out.

Clearly it is God preparing to smite something.

Looks like a left hand holding a lighted cigarette between 1st and middle fingers.  :D

In this case it is obvious click-bait. They give it this silly name but in the article point out it isn't "god's hand" but the simple result of pareidolia.

 

The problem with the media designating names for things in the scientific realm is that the general public becomes confused or mislead. "The missing link" is a perfectly example of that.

Science is for commies, homos, and atheists. EXCEPT WHEN THEY NAME SOMETHING WITH THE WORD GOD IN IT!  :rofl:

 

As for the article, did NASA designate this the "Hand of God" or FoxNews' editorial department.

 

 

With the Higgs-Boson, it was the moronic media who named it the "god particle".  Scientists had never referred to it that way until after that time, and then only in off the cuff discussions.

You got it wrong, this is what he's reaching for:

 

 

If you look close enough you can see the God Particle.

Really? If you outline the dust cloud, assuming each ejecta trail is a "finger," you get this

 

 

 

Wierd. I see it like this:

4 fingers = cartoon hands. You a fan of George of the Jungle or Magilla Gorilla? ;)

Some of the responses in this thread boggle the mind.  It's a giant hand in space, can you think of a more appropriate name?  Call it hand of Zeus or something if you just can't get past the whole "g-word".  Anyway, I see a reaching hand with the last two fingers out of sight.

does look like an argentinian football shirt!

Okay. So we've seen the eye of god, and now the hand of god.

 

Any guesses as to what part of god's anatomy we'll see next?
