First off, the Higgs Boson experiment is called in popular culture the "God particle." Scientists do not generally like this as fundies twist what it means and try to say that science has proved a God. This is just an elementary particle that the news media gave a nicname to, fundies adopted it because the title has God in it and is scientific, though they have no clue on what the theory is about. Not the first time they have done this though, so I guess us atheists are used to it.

The Higgs boson isn't completely proven yet. It will be, but the data isn't there yet.
Nevertheless, this doesn't prove God's existence. That can't be proven ever. Why it's significant (aside from the fantastic, earth-shattering news about it completing the "zoo" of physics particles) is that it confirms our standard model of physics.
In terms of God, that means it essentially destroys other models wherein it is claimed that the universe doesn't need a cause for its beginning (it does, but there's no point in debating that point now.) The standard model DOES logically need a first cause that is itself uncaused, and that leads back to the questions about God.

I think, you have not undergone the detalis,
it is just the latest sub atomic particle discovered by the physicists
and it has nothing to do with the religion, God and spirituality
and scientists are not even yet sure
whether it is Higgs Boson or something new entirely like that.

You do know that the Higgs Boson has nothing to do with God, right?
I want to let you in on a little secret... the US Congress is filled with crazy Christians. They also determine how much federal grant funding the NSF gets. Attaching the word "God" to almost anything gets these guys to loosen their purse strings. Can you say publicity stunt? I know you can.

Nothing is worse than active ignorance. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"When I was a child I spoke as a child I understood as a child I thought as a child; but when I became a man I put away childish things." I Cor. xiii. 11.
It has nothing to do with god other than the fact that people like yourself are making Christians a laughingstock and that must make god very sad and angry!

The Higgs Boson has absolutely nothing to do with a supreme being, or God. It was first referred to as the "Goddamned Particle" because it was so hard to find that "goddamned particle." It was shortened to the "God Particle" so it wouldn't offend religious nut jobs as much. It has absolutely nothing to do with God, and you would realize that if you researched it instead of reading a few lines on the front of a newspaper.

That's all your claiming God to be? An omnipresent Higgs field without any other traits, including supernatural traits...? It exists. Your "God" exists... But why are you calling the Higgs field "God"?

except Higgs Boson has nothing to do with a god... if anything it provides even more evidence against the existence of a god.
