RIP Stephen Hawking

His direct quote about his personal belief...

“I believe the simplest explanation is, there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me to a profound realization that there probably is no heaven and no afterlife either. We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful.”

An Athiest view of life on earth is a random act, 36 things all lined up to support life as we know it. An Athiest cannot have 'design' in the universe, that would point to order. Who then created your universe, your laws of physics, your language?
Order is control: Control is order. There is little randomness in the universe, 99.9% of all things can be controlled or explained. Did he write that quote? Did he capitalize God himself? What's that about......
