Is it possible there were other big bangs in time and space, and creation is random, and not the work of God?

Answer 1

String Theory

It certainly could explain our universe. And, it makes logical sense that we aren't the only life sustaining planet out there. I think our view of the things around us is ever changing. This new concept just shows how people are looking outside of themselves...into the unknown.

The problem is that this may explain our universe, but it doesn't explain the whole universe, or should I say hasn't been yet. So, it does make it less credible in the eyes of some people.

And, another proplem - Popperism - Karl Popper; that for a scientific theory to be falsifiable otherwise it's just metaphysics. So, how does one begin to analyze...

Also, this causes problems for phsyists on two different issues
1. The Earth would be older than we thought more around 998 Billion years old

2. It goes against our understanding of physics.

So, there is a lot to overcome before it becomes accepted as science.

It's just like anything else.

Science asks how
Religion asks why

I don't think this will change anything for the creationists.

Answer 2

If it were possible to know that there were other Big Bangs, it still wouldn't prove that creation was not the work of God. In fact 'science' (or what we mean by 'science' today) neither proves nor disproves the existence of God. The word 'science' originally meant simply 'knowledge'.

1) The Big Bang didn't happen IN space - it WAS space
2) Time, like the other dimensions, did not exist (or, one might say, it stood still)

I will leave you with the thought: "Be still and know that I am God".

Answer 3

Anything is possible. But we will never know for sure, at least not until we die.

Science and religion don't mix, that's my viewpoint. No matter how much science can advance and question, there will never be physical evidence that proves the existance or non-existance of God.
We will never know for sure. That's how the universe is.
You can prove that the Big Bang existed, which it did, but you can never know for sure if the Big Bang was a random process or a planned one. That belongs to the realm of faith and belief, and anyone can believe whatever they feel like about that one.

I am an agnostic myself, so I don't assume anything. To me, there might be a God, and there might not be one. I have no sure evidence to determine that.
I do respect, however, those who want to believe or to disbelieve of something with no evidence. Faith is more a choice and a feeling than anything else. We know that certain things happened, but we will never know *why* did they happen or *what* caused them to happen. Not until we die, at least.

Answer 4

Other big bangs would neither prove nor disprove God. God could just as easily create a billion as one. I think that there is one big bang in our "light cone" or in the information available to us. All the evidence seems to point that way. However, what has happened outside our sphere of possible knowledge contains theoretically infinite possibilities. However, there has never been a statement in the Christian Bible that God has told us all he knows or all that he has done. He has just told us enough to be able to get to know Him.

Answer 5

Yes, it is possible that there were many big bangs. It's possible that there are big bangs happening right now. Nothing is the work of god.

Answer 6

The big bang is proof of God. Call it whatever you want, It's a power of creation.

Answer 7

It's possible if you are from the planet Quarkton and you are an Quarkamite...but if you are a human being, you are the creation of the true and living God.

Answer 8

If that is so where did the energy come to cause the big bang?
there had to be something for the big bang to have happened.
God spoke the world into existance from nothing.

Answer 9

your hypothesis is possible but not probable because look at a computer,someone designed the circuit board to act a specific way,therefore,when you perform certain calculations,unforeseen errors occur.now,we may not understand these errors fully, but do you see people saying,"hey,that error was random."no,because in time,people understand the physics of the cpu,programs,and such and are able to determine the programmer is responsible for these errors.
God Bless

Answer 10

It is only impossible that God did not create all things.
