Does The God Particle Matter

I’m not a rocket scientist, but I think I need to pay close attention to Higgs Boson.

Higgs Boson is commonly known by scientist as “God's Particle”.  Some physicists suggest that an experimental observation of the particle would help explain how otherwise massless elementary particles cause matter to have mass. 

I don’t see why it would matter, but apparently it does because there's an European Organization for Nuclear Research, called CERN that's located on the France-Swiss border and they've spent $6 billion dollars and have over 2,500 full time employees, working 200 feet underground in the world's largest physics laboratory! 

Last week, CERN went on line with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to provide experimental evidence that will confirm or reject the God Particle’s existence.  Massive superconducting magnets cooled to near absolute zero by liquid helium, bent to 20 micron-wide beams of protons into precise trajectories, to be crashed into each other.  Which may help to prove or not prove The Big Bang Theory.

I'm not a rocket scientist, but why are we concerned with the creation of the universe when we're so busy destroying it? 

Is it me, or are we not at war?  Have we not committed acts of mass destruction?  Genocide? Intolerance? Have we found a cure for Cancer? AIDS?  Have we lowered infant mortality rates?  Have we stopped global warming?

What’s the point of understanding God’s Particle, when we haven't figured out the basic human principle of life?
