DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE BIG BANG?

[+] ballot by skylab

In theory, all time, spaces, matter and energy exploded out of a singularity between 10 and 20 billion years ago. Einstein's equations seemed to indicate that the universe was expanding, although Einstein himself denied this. Then Hubble found that red shifting of distant galaxies indicated that they were moving away, as if the universe were expanding as Einstein's equations indicated. Then people from Bell Lab thought they must have bird poop on their equipment, because of interference. They found out the interference was caused by microwave level radiation throughout the universe, and that the frequency of this radiation was consistent with what Princeton scientists predicted for energy left over from the dawn of time. If this is true, time itself is thought to be one of the things created by the Big Bang. So what happened before that? And were dark matter and dark energy (the undetectable stuff that makes up most of our universe) part of this? And how about multi-dimensional super strings? And is the entire universe what's left over from a huge matter / anti-matter explosion, causing hyper-inflation?

So what do you think? Do you believe in the Big Bang?

Yes

Here's my problem with the "big bang" theory of the universe: Let's assume it's true: Where did the material for the bang come from? What occurred before the bang? And where did the space all this material expanded into come from? This explanation for the universe is just as inexplicable as religion. In the final analysis, it doesn't work.

Time is basically a measurement of events...I'm still waiting for an answer (from non-believers) as to who or what can "create" matter and space...

it's incomplete - it's not expanding, it's contracting into another singularity and Time is running backwards....again.

For lack of a better explanation, yes. I'm kinda with margaret. There's just way too many people who claim to be knowledgeable trying to explain this crap when it's obvious they maybe read a half a chapter in some book and think regurgitating someone else's ideas makes them a scientist. Until I have the opportunity to listen to someone who actually does have a clue explain the specifics of this theory, I will hold it as merely the most believable of many so-so explanations.

Cool grafik,though, even if I don't understand it!

Miss margaret- my opinion is that the Cosmos exists within the confines of a Mobius loop, effectively recycling all matter and energy within the system. Big Bang, Cosmos lives, Big Crunch, Big Bang, repeat as needed. Mind You, I've been laughed out of many a convention with this idea...

I'm not just an (_|_) but a smart (E=MC2).

"Where did the material for the bang come from?...etc...."
by Margaret123

That's exactly what I've been saying for years. In fifty years scientists will have another theory and we'll be wondering how we could have even considered the Big Bang THEORY. I think it was Will Rogers who said that the trouble with some people isn't that they don't know anthing, it's that they know so much that just ain't so.

Just about all the evidence cited as supporting the theory of the Big Bang can also be explained with other interpretations. I believe the Big Bang is unlikely.

Truthseeker: Loop de smoop. Where on earth did that loop come from? And what space does it occupy? What about what's outside the loop? Pretty loopy truth. lol
