we know its significant, it is just hilarious when you put an 'ancient religion' spin on it, thats all.

Tehuty is a name which returns even in the Aztec, Inca, Norse , Babylonian, Japanese and Chinese myths and legends.

Everywhere in the world there are temples and pyramids build for him; Thoth, Tehuty; Jehuty.

I bet he made that particle just for giggles.

New data is being unveiled that may cast new light on the Higgs Boson, aka the 'God Particle', suspected of being the 'fundamental' particle responsible for mass. This mass would have been obtained as the Universe began, and the newly formed fundamental particles passed through the 'Higgs Field', where they obtained these elusive Bosons and therefore mass.

Evidence for or against the Higgs Boson would be a monumental discovery. Thoughts?

i've no doubt some folks are taking this possibility as verbatim and going on god sprees.
whatever the hell they are.

It probably involves shouting 'the end is nigh!' somewhere.

Perhaps they nicknamed it the God Particle because it's impossible to find any direct evidence of its existence. The LHC can only observe a Boson by its decay and the effect on background radiation. Any evidence would be indirect.

Everyone knows it's the fault of communism, even the Egyptian pantheon was communistic!

Like that?

and I always wondered why people linked the Chinese languages with "Ching chon"

Chong is a sound that exists in the Chinese languages I know... but Ching I have never heard... =/

A horrific mangling of what is normally transliterated as "Tahuti", who is an Egyptian god. He's more commonly known by the Greek name, Thoth.

Although looking it up it appears the current accepted transliteration is Djehuti.

I mentioned it before, but it's called the God Particle in the popular press because the popular press doesn't want to use the word "goddamn".

A scientific paper titled 'Everything's Getting Nailed' would stir up considerable interest for entirely the wrong reasons.

Or Izanagi ofcourse... who is quite similar to Tehuty.

No Kronos was the child of Uranus, Kronos got the the position of top god by cutting off his Dad's genitals then chucking them into the ocean, some say the testicles became Aphrodite/Venus so it would mean that Aphrodite is Zeus' aunt instead of daughter.
EDIT: Uranus is the son of Gaia who herself was the daughter of Chaos.
