The Big Bang. (56k)

I think the "Big Bang" is kind of bogus.

Why does the Universe have to have a beginning and end?

The Big Bang is just religion disguised as science.

"At the moment in time when the Big Bang theorists claim the universe was functioning as it does today, complete with all fundamental forces, the entirety of the universe's mass was still well within the event horizon of its own gravity well. That the well was not the product of a true singularity is irrelevant, Newton's equation provides an equivalent gravity field for a singularity or a super dense mass in a localized region.

Therefore the Big Bang, as currently described, could not have produced the universe as we see it today. At three seconds, the time the theorists claim the universe started operating as we know it, it would have come under the influence of its own gravity and unable to reach an escape velocity exceeding that of light, collapsed back into itself."

What if it always was?

Who knows?

What do you think?

The Big bang is just a theory of how the universe was created, and like all theories it shouldnt be take as fact

Never believed in it anyway. It has a very high chance of being completely wrong since nobody even knows so much about the galaxy.

the big bang is real it just until recently people have been stuck in explaining the singularity. at first it was believed there was a point were the all the matter in the universe was one , the singularity, when the singularity itself could not be explained. the come along theory know as "m" theory or membrane theory, in this theory there 11 dimensions idk them all my self, i know 5 , up and down, left and right, backwards and forwards, space, and time.

the last dimension is where the membrane that binds all o universe exists. there are other universes in the 11th dimension and when of these membranes( universes) collide the form "big bangs". so that's all i know. it sounds a little crazy but the explanation for the big bang.

The big bang hasn't been proven at all, there's no evidence from the past telling us when it happened scientists just assumed that it did... so yeah, it's a theory.

The big bang isn't a theory, it really happened i tell you. I should know, I was there.

While you're partly true, I think you're understating what a scientific theory is. A theory is based on many facts, it may not be right but it's more than a mere guess.

The big band theory is far from perfect. psychobrew

Typos for the lulz. Well done. :lol:

I think the Big Bang is bogus. There was no time before the big bang. Thats some of the responses to what happen before the Big Bang. Well thats just bogus. How do you explain this 'beginning' of the Big Bang and the singularity stuff? How that came to be instead of just simply saying, its just the beginning so nuff said. Its just improbable.

God farted and thus the universe was born

end of story. most plausible theory ever

It's a fundamental component of Cosmology, not "religion disguised as science."

And that site doesn't look particularly trustworthy. I'd like to see the creator's credentials.

Edit: Oh wow, what a surprise. The host site is a conspiracy theory hub.

Just a hunch, but something tells me absolutely no one on GS is qualified to discuss theoretical astrophysics.

I find it funny how 98% of people who talk about the big bang theory have not thoroughly researched it and understand it properly rofl. includes TC.

For a start its a theory, and there are multiple variations of the theory, secondly it states the beginnings of the universe as we know it, it does not mean it was the beginning of "all existence" I see time as non existent outside of human thought, I doubt there is such a thing as a beginning and an end, to me it's a human idea.

Theorem, Theorem, Theorem...

I find it highly unlikely as well.

-Chimera-

That's exactly my point.

A scientific theory is as close to a fact as science gets, and the Big Bang theory is the model with the most evidence, that makes the most sense and is the most accepted theory on how the universe began.

As for why the universe could not have always existed, it's simple: the universe is expanding. Eventually, it's going to collapse in on itself or rip apart. It couldn't have always existed because it would have ended an eternity ago if it did.

I quite go for the big bang theory.

the big bang is dumb because there's no answer as to where that small piece of matter came frommohfrontline

hmm.. another thread where people simply don't have enough information to make any kind of conclusive argument.. fascinating.

I don't see anyone in here proving or disproving the big bang based on quotes/information from other people. It is a theory.

Wasn't there a bit a proof because they can still see the radiation from the big bang?

the universe is gonna collapse when the universe stops expanding. i presume thats when its contracting. then on date XXXX, its doomsday people. be happy!! yea right. dense mass of singularity the beginning to time? i presume god farted and gave birth to that singularity particle. yea, right. radiation, yea so what. there's a new theory, i dont have the source, but suggests that the expansion of the universe is something else. i dont remember the article, but i really remember thats the idea. another theory. if anything, probably better than singularity BS and doomsday BS becoz of the singularity birth to the big bang BS.

Your source, his understanding of the Big Bang and your understanding of the Big Bang are all pretty depressing.xaos

Aren't they, though? But hey, it's nice to see so many people finally agreeing with Young Earth Creationists on the factuality of the Big Bang, the definition of "theory" and the way we use evidence being a coverup for some malicious bias.
