What's the deal with the "big bang" anyway?

Of course there will be one that would argue that there are differnt concepts of evolution but if any belief in evolution were true, then the statement quoted in the journal Scientific American would be valid: “Our modern understanding of evolution implies . . . that ultimate meaning in life is nonexistent.”

Consider the implications of those words. If ultimate meaning in life were nonexistent, then you would have no purpose in life other than to try to do some measure of good and, perhaps, pass on your genetic traits to the next generation. At death, you would cease to exist forever. Your brain, with its ability to think, reason, and meditate on the meaning of life, would simply be an accident of nature.

Why do we all think about the meaning of life???????

It's not an accident!

"So, a singularity caused it...lol that explains it...a black hole sucked up everything, the matter collapsed on itself in the sigularity and the whole thing exploded? So...what happened to the Swartz-child radius?"

You must have heard a different version of the big bang theory to me.

Does the Y!A administration think we could have a more knowledgable guest host, someone who has a little more than a passing amateur interest than we humble folks in paragraph land.

Virtually all professional scientists and students of physics/astronomy, believe in the big bang. (The name originally quoted by Edgar Allen Poe.) But there are some who draw upon less conventional forms of theory, who also have a stake in their methods and ideas about reality. We know the tune, we stumble on words of past and present philosophies. We know the Buzz words--Schwartzchild, included. Some can answer with confidence that we don't know and why that is, and why we continue to search and build these machines I would love to hear more from someone who is out there to agree with certainty and frankness, some of the puzzling qualities of the universe.

The "big bang" theory states that protons from "dark matter" (which scientist know exists but aren't sure what it is) collided together and ended up making what's around us. The next question would be "where did dark matter come from"?

The first link has a few paragraphs on the "Origins of the universe" and "In a way it’s biblical"

The second link is a small report on a recent experiment to remake the "big bang"

Quite in contrast to the bible the big bang theory

does not state that something is created from

nothing. Actually it states quite the opposite as

you need unbelievable amounts of dense energy.

The only pitfall with the theory is that we cannot

state (at this point) what the source of such an

energy burst might have been. And if you fools

would stick prior to that date we wouldn't have any

arguments to trash you all the time. But that's how

stories that got around work. You can only change

them that many times before they get a tad unbelievable.

Evolutionists believe:

In the beginning there was nothing

Then some nothings got together and became something

Then something exploded ( the “big bang” )

Millions of years passed by.

As the gaseous remains of the “big bang” spread out

Some of it became galaxies, stars, and planets

Millions of years passed by.

On the planets it rained and it rained

Millions of years passed by.

Some rocks dissolved into puddles,

And this became the primordial soup

Millions of years passed by.

Something in the soup decided to be life

Millions of years passed by.

This “life” mutated and mutated and

Millions of years passed by.

this is where ALL life comes from!

Yeah Right!

Give me CREATION as it is much more believable

<><

Just a loser theory with no substantial evidence created by losers who want to deny the existence of truth.Considering there was no possible way to create the explosion that they claim.And movement would cease because a rocket needs to fire retros or boosters occasionally or it drifts to a stop, albeit a long one, but a stop nonetheless.

Yes, but it was a really really BIG nothing. Literally a whole lot of nothing. And as science shows, nothing from nothing leaves nothing. But, since you gotta have something, lo! -- Everything was.

But that's ancient history.

Another pitiful attempt to discredit God's Creation..The Big Bang Is Based on Naturalism

Since the philosophy of naturalism does not allow for anything beyond nature, a naturalist would insist that the universe was created by the kinds of processes currently operating within it. The big bang is based on this critical assumption; that is, the big bang model attempts to describe the formation of the entire universe by processes currently operating within the universe. Stars, planets, and galaxies are all said to have formed “naturalistically”—by the laws of nature currently in operation todayIs it rational or necessary to assume that the universe was created in the same way it operates? Not at all. We can see the absurdity of such thinking by applying it to other objects. A flashlight, for example, operates by converting electrical energy into light; would it be rational to assume that the flashlight was created by the conversion of electrical energy into light? No, it was created by an entirely different process. Most things are.

God's word is so powerful that when He spoke...He created the whole universe with one Big Bang
