Hi SS
With the utmost respect, you should be aware that the universe doesn't run based on what you do or do not understand, or do or do not believe.
Big bang theory is an internally consistent scientific theory with a wealth of strong supporting supporting evidence. In challenging this theory you bring us unsupported statements, beliefs and argument by assertion. You demonstrate minimal or no understanding of the theory you're addressing, its core concepts or its evidentiary support. Your treatise is littered with misunderstandings and errors.
In my experience, the best way to undertake a revision of a physical theory is:
1. first - understand the theory you're addressing. If you don't understand it, then ask about it or try to find out about it. Raging against it from a position of no understanding is only a testament to ignorance.
2. understand the evidence which supports the theory. Anything you propose must account for these supporting observations.
3. test your critique analytically, first yourself, and then with colleagues. At this stage be prepared to accept criticism of your ideas where they are wrong.
I think you need to start at number 1. You need to gain a more accurate understanding of what big bang theory says about the early inflation epoch. You need a better understanding of the models and what the implications of finite or infinite universes are. The question of whether the universe is infinite or finite in extent is a physically arguable proposition - belief has nothing to do with it (it's a conseuqnece of the curvature parameter and density ratio).
I suggest some research on something called FRW (Friedman Walker Robertson) space-time models. These are simple big bang models with identifiable curvature parameters, and will help you make the link between density, critical density, omega ratio, curvature and the cosmological constant lambda. Perhaps you could begin to refine your knowledge by asking a few questions here.
I sincerely you'll be motivated to investigate the subject more deeply, it's certainly rewarding to gain a good understanding of it.
Good luck

Wow, that is a huge question, or should I say statement. It is very interesting, and you are right, no one is possitive, it is even possible that some place in the universe, the laws of physics do not apply the way we know. But it is like saying "life as we know it", when you think of it, that is a rather small definition of life, carbon based etc... but is it not possible for life to exist in other forms or based from another element? The point is, you could go on forever with any theory if you take away all the rules and leave only unknowns. Is what you said possible, I guess so, but from what we know of physics, there are some major holes in your theory. First, if what material that is here now has always been in a form similar (solid matter) then where did that come from? Thats right, can't explain it. And the problem with the large star theory is this, it would be too massive to support itself, basicly it would create such a huge amount of gravity that it would colapse into itself and create a massive black hole, dead end there. Is space infinite, you have to relize what we define as space, it is the area that we know with all the galixies, stars etc, what is beyond that, as far as we can tell, is empty. There are lots of things envolved in what we cosider our universe, such as dark energy, basicly fills in the space between mater as we know it, this would explain the missing mass in the big bang theory, we also know that space has a tempreture, 3 deg kelvin, meaning that something is there that we can't see. Beyond our universe is nothing in theory, meaning absolute zero, absent of all temp, molecular motion, and thus molecules and atoms, this is what we are expanding into. You sould look into the big bag theory and all the information there is explaning all of those unknowns that you mentioned. Some of this info is not something you can get from a HS class or a simple book, and takes years to understand and comprehent, as well as all the more complex physical laws the govern our universe.
Is it possible that what you said is true? Again, could be to some extent, but you need to get a stronger grasp of the complexities that are involved in that, and many other theories out there. Believe me, there are a few things that I don't agree with in the universe, and galaxy formations and their deaths that most scientist agree on, but like I said, there is a lot you need to understand before you can rule out what has been agreed upon and proven.

Just because you don't understand something, and you obviously don't given all your rambling, doesn't mean it's not true or that it doesn't make sense to somebody else.
The 4th dimension is commonly accepted to be time. The other dimensions are indicated from the mathematics in attempting to figure out what people can measure in the universe.
No, there is a lot that isn't proved, a lot is just theory. But the theories are based on scientific observation.

Gosh! Takes some reading.
I think you have to bear in mind when you discount other dimensions and the universe being finite, that we have Earth-bound minds. These minds tell us for instance, that time is always the same, whereas in cosmic terms, time is not a constant.
For instance, though we assign a finite velocity to light (or any other part of the electromagnetic wave spectrum) of about 186,000 m/sec, from the perspective of the light wave itself, it's speed is infinite. That means if you could ride a light beam, you would get anywhere in the universe instantly.
That's one of the reasons that attaining light-speed for any mass is impossible - if you went the speed of light, you would get anywhere in no time at all. But, and a big but, you need infinite energy to accelerate any mass to light-speed, and if you got it there, it's mass would be infinite. Sorry, Star Trek fans, but it aint on.
As difficult to imagine are these concepts, Einstein proved them mathematically, and it has been observed that time does contract and mass does increase as you accelerate a particle towards light-speed. The observation confirms the math, that time tends towards zero and mass tends towards infinite as you get nearer to light speed.
So, yes it is impossible to imagine curved space and a finite universe, but it is equally hard to imagine space going on forever.
Look at it like this: nobody can visualise what electricty is really like. The electron particles (if they are particles) are negatively charged, but our electric current flows the other way. We cannot possibly conceive of the true nature of electricity, but we use it, abuse it, and cannot live without it.

You say ---
"...When we talk about how solar system was formed this is what we talk. A large fire ball, the parent of sun, all 9 planets and all other solar system members ( comets, asteroids etc etc etc ) exploded which produced Sun and other members of the solar system..."
This is just plain wrong! Also, throughout your rambling dissertation you repeatedly confuse the solar system with the universe.
Pretty hard to be convincing when you don't even get basic facts and/or terminology correct.

The late great comedian and talk show host Johnny Carson said the "Big Bang" was then followed the the "Big Ciggarette."

i personaly believe God created everything....and cockroaches with prevail. they r the only things that can survive a nucleur war. they can survive 3 days(or 3 weeks can't remember) without their heads. i see them taking over our planet after God has taken us.
