Stephen Hawking has apparently declared that God is not necessary for the creation of the universe. Why a physicist with an atheist opinion is major news is a bit beyond me. Apparently the idea is that the law of gravity practically necessitates the creation of multiple universes. Call me a contrarian, but I kind of thought God made the laws that govern the universe. I won't pretend that I can argue intelligently that Mr. Hawking is incorrect on his level, but it strikes me that he's ignoring a fundamental idea in that at some point there would have to have been a first particle to have gravity.
