I'm a Christian and don't believe it, but I like hearing what people have to say.

Nothing in the Bible talks about a big bang, so I say NO!

The bible does say that GOD will confound the wise.

I don't understand why it's so difficult to believe that the 'big bang" was just part of the evolutionary process of 'creation', whether it was orchestrated by a totally random evolutionary process, an intelligent designer, "Nature", or "God". Why can't Christians accept that God might 'created' the world through an 'evolution' where it started off with a big bang; evolved into air and water; where tadpoles and fish developed; which evolved into snakes and lizards; which eventually became land animals like dinosaurs and apes; which ultimately evolved into what we call homosapiens? And why can't the scientific community accept the very same scenario? Yes, it take a little leap of faith and can't completely rely on absolute proof - but I believe that's how the Christian "God" intended it all to happen.

We seem to have trouble accepting that this universe had no beginning, and it will have no end. Most likely, the Earth began with a "big bang" and will end the same way when an implosion occurs once man has sucked all of the oil, coal, mineral ore, and natural gas out of Earth's core. -RKO-

According to Membrane Theory there are 11 dimensions spread out into thin sheets, imagine sheets rippling in the wind.. Some scientists believe that when 2 sheets collided together it sparked the big bang. Stephen Hawking and other notable theologins have been able to calculate the timing of the big bang back to microseconds of it actually taking place. And they think they know where in the universe from which it sparked based on the movement of galaxies.

In 1 google years that is 1 x 10^100 years it is speculated that there will be nothing left of the universe as gravity from black holes will become so strong they will suck everything up. Though the earth will not be around then as the sun will go super nova in about 4 billion years and wipe the earth out.

Who knows who is right? Thoug it is interesting to wonder.

Yes, I believe the Big Bang happened. I do not believe you have to believe in either science or religion. Science is not a "thing"; it is simply a way of looking at the world non-judgmnetally and observing what is actually there. It does not assign values. Science is to me a language by which has God has learned to communicate with us. When you learn the language, you realize how beautiful it is.

There are pictures from the strongest telescopes that demonstrate stars and planets in formation, and pictures looking backwards in time billions of years. the pictures are breathtaking. I know many scientists, and very few of us are true atheists. Our work inspires us to seek deeper meaning. The Buddhist path even describes scientifc inquiry as its basis, teaching to [paraphrased] go into the world with an open mind, and learn from what you experience as well as from what you are taught.

You do not dishonor your faith by learning to appreciate the vision of the scientists. It was a scientist, not a preacher, who discovered penicillin, and saved millions of lives. Neitehr is more imoportant than the other.

You can dismiss science if you want, but I beg of you to learn enough to create an INFORMED opinion before you call it rubbish. You may find there is something of value there for you, as well.

A “Big Bang” is abstract hypothesis.
============================
Once upon a time, 20 billions of years ago, all matter
(all elementary particles and all quarks and
their girlfriends- antiparticles and antiquarks,
all kinds of waves: electromagnetic, gravitational,
muons… gluons field ….. etc.) – was assembled in a “single point”.
It is interesting to think about what had surrounded the “single point”.
EMPTINESS- NOTHING….!!!
Ok!
But why does everyone speak about EMPTINESS- NOTHING in
common phrases rather than in specific, concrete terms?
I wonder why nobody has written down this EMPTINESS- NOTHING in
the form of a physical formula ? You see, every schoolboy knows that
is possible to express the EMPTINESS- NOTHING condition
by the formula T=0K.
* * *
Once there was a “Big Bang”.
But in what space had the Big Bang taken place
and in what space was the matter of the Big Bang distributed?
Not in T=0K?
It is clear, that there is only EMPTINESS, NOTHING, in T=0K.
Now consider that the Universe, as an absolute frame of reference is
in a condition of T = 2,7K (rests relic radiation of the Big Bang ).
But, the relic radiation is extended and in the future will change and decrease.
What temperature can this radiation reach?
Not T=0K?
Hence, if we go into the past or into the present or into the future,
we can not escape from EMPTINESS- NOTHING T=0K.
Therefore it is necessary to begin to think from T=0K.

Im a christian and I believe a big bang or explosion is probably what it looked/sounded like when God created the universe.

Science would have you believe that the universe, sun, moon, stars and even life all came from NOTHING??? Now that takes an unbelievable amount of blind faith to believe in something like that.

If you do not have belief in the Big Bang theroy and would rather believe that god did it all, then consider the Big Bang the term of what god did.
You should truly understand that science is a logic and christianity a form of brain washing

I am not a christian and I believe the big bang did not happen. I believe the universe was just always there.
I have no proofs or measurements that support this belief.
For methe universe was always there there was no beginning.

yes, the big bang is the most believing theory,
and the world will end in an implosion
