Before the Big Bang theory, atheists argued with theists by declaring that the universe was eternally existent. They conceded that if the universe had a beginning, it would necessarily prove that the universe came from nothing, and therefore prove the existence of God. They went so far as to say that if it was proven that the universe had a beginning, they would become theists.
So, it would seem that the Big Bang is the nail on the coffin door for atheists…(and for many, it has been: they have become theists)
Yet ironically, most atheists absurdly believe that the Big Bang supports atheism! Wouldn’t these atheists be mocked by atheists from years ago?
Some current atheists are desperately trying to “get out of cracks in the coffin wall” through string theory or multiverse theory…
But wouldn’t atheists of old say that this is nothing more than sticking one’s head in the sand regarding “proof” that they sought and desired in order to have faith in God?
