When Peter Higgs and Francois Englert won the Nobel prize for Physics Englert was interviewed by Euronews about their discovery of the Higgs boson. He was asked 'The Higgs boson has been nicknamed the God particle by the media. What does God have to do in all of this?' He replied 'Nothing, nothing! It's simple: I don't think God has anything to do with it. What's more, I don't very well see what God has to do with anything, but that's a separate question.' (Euronews, 9 December) RD
