Just a note about the song
Sally Walker (Sally Waters) is an old old children’s game of European roots
An old tradition of a bride stepping over a saucer full of water before she marries
Sally ends up sitting in the saucers stead of stepping over it
And is sad because it bodes badly on her future
She is compelled to stand up and rejoice and find the one she loves best
A child’s game of a circle of players and “a Sally” sitting in the Middle
The circle sings the song and claps
She follows the circles commands to stand
Then dance (the other children copy her dance moves)
Then she moves to the east (her right) then to the west (her left) as the lyrics suggest
Then she stops in front of someone when the lyrics command her to stop in front of the one she loves best
That person is the new Sally
Don’t sit are mourn bad situations
Move on and seek love
Beautiful

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higgs_boson
In the mainstream media, the Higgs boson has often been called the "God particle" from the 1993 book The God Particle by Nobel Laureate Leon Lederman,[10] although the nickname is not endorsed by many physicists.[11][12]
Lederman explains in the book why he gave the Higgs boson the nickname "The God Particle":
This boson is so central to the state of physics today, so crucial to our final understanding of the structure of matter, yet so elusive, that I have given it a nickname: the God Particle. Why God Particle? Two reasons. One, the publisher wouldn't let us call it the Goddamn Particle, though that might be a more appropriate title, given its villainous nature and the expense it is causing. And two, there is a connection, of sorts, to another book, a much older one...

The Book of Genesis (Bereishit in Hebrew) [a], also known as the First Book of Moses,[1] is the first book of the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament.[2] In Judeo-Christian traditions it is viewed as an account of the creation of the world, the early history of humanity, Israel's ancestors, and the origins of the Jewish people.[3] Its Hebrew name is the same as its first word, Bereshit ("In the beginning").
We all believe in a lot of things which cannot be scientifically tested in a mass spectrometer or particle accelerator.
The Declaration of Independence asserts that all humans are created equal and are endowed with natural rights which supercede any king, secular law, or social convention. The French Universal Declaration of Human Rights makes similar claims.
There is no laboratory or experimental evidence to support that belief.
It is a social construct rooted in the philosophical belief in natural law.
Soren Kierkegaard said that most religious belief is fake and inauthentic. In 19th century Denmark, he felt most people claimed and demostrated belief simply by attending Church once a week and listening to the pastor. Kierkegaard maintained that true belief was far more difficult and complex than that.
