Large Hadron Collider - To tinker or not to tinker with?

A lot has been going on in the science community that many are not aware of. Scientist from around the world are trying to recreate the conditions moments after the big bag event that eventually created the entire universe. Through the use of the Large Hadron Collider where atoms will be collided at the speed of light, scientist hope to create the Higs Boson particle also known as the God particle. Many experts are saying by doing so would start the process of destroying our world. Note that the experiment has already begun. So the question is "How far should man go to gain knowledge that I think should only be left to God?" Your views please..

I don't mind that they're "tinkering." But then again, I don't believe in a god.
They do a lot in the LHC. They try to find dark matter, anti matter, the elusive (lol really hypothetical, I guess) graviton, and much, much more.
We're either made of this stuff, surrounded by this stuff or are held together and in order by this stuff. Trying to figure it out isn't doing any harm.
I don't see how colliding infinitesmal particles would even begin to cause the world's destruction. In all likelihood, the only "big bang" they'd ever recreate would be 1:1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 scale. I doubt they'd be able to blow their pipes up with the current experiments, much less the rest of the world.

i don't agree with you. big bang started with a small particle and the result is the whole universe and that particle holds much energy but the thing is we will never be able to make that particle. it would be like creating a new universe.
