What would Christians say if science proves there was another universe before the big bang?

Answer 1

At first, they won't believe it, then they'll re-interpret the bible and say they knew it all along.

Answer 2

I would say, "Isn't God amazing!" There would be nothing mind blowing about that. Even Einstein found 7 different dimensions, all complete with a world of their own. Jesus said "I have sheep in other pastures that you know not of." When I think about it, I would be very surprised if this world we have is the only thing God made. Seems way too simple for him. Oh, and, it could not have happened before the big bang... there's no such thing as the big bang. Well, I don't know, there might have been some sort of banging noise when God created it. Kind of boomed into existence perhaps.

Answer 3

There are Christians who believe there is a gap between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2, here's how those verses appear typically:

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

However, Hebrew is a very imprecise langauge. So, it is also entirely accuate to tranlate it this way:

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth became formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

So, they believe there may have been more than one creation, between verses 1 and two.

FYI, it is actually more accurate to tranlate them this way:

1 In a beginning when God created the heavens and the earth,

2 the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

Notice that 1:1 is no longer a complete sentence, but becomes a temporal clause explaining when 1:2 happened.

So, the short answer to your question would be that it would probably have no effect.

Answer 4

There most probably was. The implosion of a previous universe due to gravity pulling it inwards to a single point is the only logical explanation as to where the big bang came from and the universe is in constant cycles of expansion and contraction. I've tried to explain this to a christain but they where just too stupid to understand. So if science could prove it then they would probably just be too stupid to understand and go on believing in there little story book.

Answer 5

Science can't prove something like that.
I'm not saying it isn't so, but it seems unlikely there was a universe before the big bang.
What kind of proof could there be?
They'd have to find something belonging to such a universe which is not possible as it would have to be of this universe in order to discover and observe it.

Answer 6

*note not Christian

first off its scientifically Impossible to prove such a thing

but lets say we prove that the Universe constantly expands and collapse on itself.

you would be left with one problem. And that is the nature of entropy that demands that each successive universe be shorter lived and smaller than the last.

eventually it would all come to an end

and logical if something has an end then it MUST have a start and you would be left at square one.

Answer 7

The problem is that Christians can always say God created whatever. Non Christians can always say but here is something before that.

SOOOOO....... The real problem is that Christians believe in God and non Christians don't. No matter what either one says to the other neither one will listen.

Answer 8

they would say we have found an older version of the old testament
it says
experiment part 2 universes
initial test oops that's a big bang . G

Answer 9

Science can't prove many theories on THIS universe.
Come up with something more original.

Answer 10

They'd deny it, simple as that. Either that or they'd say that God created all of the Big Bangs or something ridiculous like that.

Answer 11

I'm NOT Christian, but I believe God created all. Science didn't prove what you say.
