The Big Bang or God?

Question

What do you think about this issue and why, give reasons supporting your idea....thanks alot...

Answer 1

Why not start closer to home? Like with ourselves. What are we? The body is constantly changing. Every 7 years every single cell is replaced at least once by a new one. Yet we know we are not different people every 7 years. We remain the same despite all the changes of the body. So maybe we are not the body. Maybe we are the consciousness illuminating the body. And until science creates consciousness in the lab, we can assume, at least for now that consciousness is not material. If we assume this is correct for a moment, then we must ask, where did consciousness come from? Does any credible scientist theorize that consciousness came from the Big Bang, assuming there was one? I doubt it. Yet, we all know we are conscious entities and so therefore consciousness is a reality. Its not just an illusion.

Just as we see here in this plane of existence that a living being is required to produce another living being. (Even invitro fertilization and cloning require tissue from once living beings). Consciousness is not produced from matter, but must have come from a source of consciousness. And in my study of the Absolute, this is the very definition of God. Origin theories that only deal with material elements don't address the real issue-- consciousness-- and to me are not even in the running for serious consideration.

Answer 2

FOR tom_d:

That is quite an elaborate explanation of how life came to be. A detailed explanation of how Big Bang started until how life forms come to be on this planet. Yet having that very detailed information on your head, you choose not to believe on it simply because you hate atheists. I'm assuming therefore that you are a person who strongly believes in a supreme entity commonly called God. The problem I saw with what you wrote was that, you are rejecting these facts and evidences which has been gathered through scientific methods simply because you are thinking that such ideas came from individuals adhering to atheistic dogmas. The truth however is that, these are ideas that were gathered and is constantly developed by different men of various spiritual ideologies. The only common thread that ties these men together is their belief with the scientific method. The same scientific methods which helps you comprehend things more clearly in your daily life.

Answer 3

There is nothing definitive in Big Bang theory that says what happens before or why it happens. If you need to insert a higher power in there to fill these voids, that is your discretion.

ALL of the evidence points to a Big Bang and an expanding universe. The Big Bang is responsible for our current position, composition, dimension of the universe, this is scientific fact. Going against this is only faith, not science. But, like I said, your personal Deity can be the cause and start of the Big Bang.

Answer 4

I believe in both and neither! Why I say that. I feel that we are a continuum. I feel that maybe the earth was formed by the big bang but the universe we live in is God. But maybe not the straight forward view of god taught in our Sunday schools. I feel that the universe was a constant thing and as elements began to fuse together and matter began to collect upon it self, planets and stars began to form just like we have chemical reactions and matter collecting inside of us. And just as they were formed we were formed. By being under the right conditions the earth was made. Man was made. And like sometime we have condition in ourselves that are either conscience or subconsciously going on inside us, it is us making it happen. Like sometime we create things and make things happen, but we try to separate our minds from our body to say that we have no control over our self. Well I feel that’s the same way people choice to believe in a god or not, thinking that he is in control or not. If you’re not in control of the pain when you have a tooth ache, than who is! Or are you giving you're tooth ache free will!

Answer 5

This question is one of those questions that cannot be answered without offending someone, but, here goes. Science is based on logic and reasoning; religion is based on faith. For example, we don't have to believe in gravity for it to happen, therefore it is a scientific fact, not a religious one. We cannot prove God scientifically, nor disprove him, therefore we should leave Him and all other deities out of the scientific field to prevent offense. Matters of faith should stay as matters of faith, and should be kept out of science.

This said, I believe in the Big Bang; this is because science has provided us with a large amount of evidence suggesting that a huge, hot, and chaotic inflationary event 13 billion years ago did happen, and that it most likely resulted in the birth of our universe. I also believe in God, and thank him for allowing humanity to look back and see His scientific handiwork. Though I would not say the above in a normal physics discussion, I will list it as an example for my answer.

Answer 6

All of the Above.

I believe all that "six days" stuff is pure allegory. God's six days might be, like, from the Pliocene-Pleistocene Period to a week from next Tuesday. Which accounts for why He hasn't shaken George Bush out of the Ant-Farm yet:

"I hear your prayers, for My's Sakes! Jeez! Hold your trilobites, I mean, horses... it hasn't even been a millionth of a millisecond yet! When will you people learn to be just a little more patient? I'm on the throne, for My's Sakes!"

I have no choice but to believe in God. I'm a Reformed Agnostic. The more I've seen of people's sheer idiocy, lunacy, and bloodlust the last six years, the more convinced I am that we couldn't go ten minutes without Poofing ourselves out of existence if Someone wasn't watching over the old Ant-Farm.

Answer 7

Both. I truly believe there was a big bang. I think there was something that made this universe, but think about it! Where did it come from? There has to be an explanation for it right? And who better than a higher power, like God! Right? I mean come on. Where would it come from?

Answer 8

QUANTUM SINGULARITY of GOD Theory and other space stuff!?
Ok as I under stand it the big bang theory states at 1 point in time and space that all known matter in the universe converged into 1 area and then was rapidly dispersed and formed balls of gas that formed stars, planets and all known matter in the universe.

There is something illogical about this assessment. That is to say that would not a huge black hole have been formed and all matter would have been a black hole or later consumed by a that same black hole. What was the force that propelled the matter apart? I say it was the hand of god.


Also why is there a dark energy theory isn’t dark energy the ejecti of Black Holes and is likely anti-matter. Also what is cool is their may be anti-matter life forms which we could not even see. Also it has become clear to me that Black holes must function much as a star does internal not as a rock but some form of anti-matter liquid or gaseous equivalent. Thus as it spins it would not spin at the same rate with. This is possibly what causes them to plus from time to time.

Answer 9

Whether Big Bang or God it entirely depends on your point of view.
I'll go with God because even if there was a Big Bang it would also have happened with God's will.

Answer 10

It belongs to those things that human being won't solve because we're not enough intelligent or because we're just human...
We can't invent what happened and why it happened. One said: We are free and responsible for what we do and God is not almighty or we are not free and not responsible and God almighty is responsible for the bad.

Just to say that there are a lot of things for and a lot of things against... we'll never know. It's a good thing to look for the truth but let us not kill each other because of a religious matter. Just see what's happening today...
Another question: God, why not but who create God, why, when it is as selfish as Big Bang theory
