Have the Big Bang and Evolution been proved and no longer just Theories?

Question

I had a fellow tell me they were laws now and I don't believe them............they are Atheists and were telling me that the Big Bang Theory was actually a law so it took no ' faith ' to believe in it. So have they completely proven the Big Bang or Evolution?

Answer 1

Every fossil, every observation in biology points to evolution. There is nothing that goes against it or points to a different way to scientifically explain modern diversity. There is not one fossil or one piece of DNA that does NOT point to evolution. It would be hard NOT to see the concrete evidence, and only those blinded by faith can do this.

Evolution is 100% world-wide accepted fact, including the evolution of man.

There is ZERO evidence for a higher being causing anything. This is why people who are religious need faith, you can't see or study the actions of a deity, by definition. Evolution has ZERO faith and ALL evidence.

Scientists (real ones) have been studying and supporting evolution for over 150 years, and still nothing has pointed to creationism. There is clear links and transitional forms between everything in the fossil record to the Class-Family level, if not Genus-Species level. And this includes humans, which there are several 'missing links' which are well described and studied, people just choose to ignore this. Sure, there are still things we don't know, but that's why science is not stagnent and dead. We learn more every day, that's what happens when you keep an open mind and follow the scientific method.

There are some areas of evolution in which all of the pieces have not been found in the fossil record, but there is no counter theory that has even ONE piece of evidence that can not easily be explained by evolution.

Big bang- same thing, 100% fact in science, no evidence of god.

Let me turn your question around, if Creationism was correct and science could definitively prove Creationism (and thus the existence of God), why would they not? That would be the greatest scientific discovery in the history of the world. No one would pass that up to maintain the 'status quo'. There is no conspiracy to hide creation evidence. Anyone who knows real scientists knows they are glory-mongers first. They love to prove others wrong to enhance their own standing. And if any scientist could prove Creation/God, it would've been done a long time ago.

Go to a museum, take a class in biology, go to reputable sites on the Internet (like AAAS: http://www.aaas.org/news/press_room/evolution or http://www.talkorigins.org ) and find out for yourself.

Answer 2

Scientists never regard any rule in the physical world as "proven" but as "settled fact". The age of the earth, for instance, is "settled" at something like 4.6 billion years.

Evolution is a fact and was basically known to be a fact soon after the time of Darwin. What Darwin's theory (now settled fact) sought to show was a mechaism. We genetically engineer dairy cattle by selective breeding and have done so for the last 10000 years at least. We do the same thing with plants. We can even do some really wierd things that we consider desireble (like make an orange that glows in the dark because of a firefly gene)

Einstien's theory of general relativity is regarded as settled fact, just as Newton's law of univeral gravitation was before Einstein refined it.

The occurence of a Big Bang is a settled scientific fact. What is not settled and what will be difficult ever to settle is a mechanism that explains why there was one (and whether there are other universes in which there wasn't one and, if so, why it didn't happen there, etc.)

Answer 3

Evolution has in fact everyday we research evolution we are just adding to the idea or slightly modifing it.
The Big bang although generally accepted has not because many believe including a research group at harvord that the big bang we detect is only the encore of a series of big bangs that started the universe
and kelly that's ignorant and childish to be quite honest science can , does and will explain everything in our world and why would you have a problem with being brought into the true light of science not religion
not to mention science isn't a thing you can pick up it's a concept developed to explain the world around us and you have a problem with science explaining the world but I bet you didn't think that science started the field of medicine and guess what the bible is pro-life

plus why is it the we always have to put our believes on these things come on it was just question
and South park is awesome and it was made pretty obvious in that episode that Mr.Garrsion had no idea what he was talking about

think before you speak

Answer 4

NO. It has been proven false long ago but people who believe in evolution disagree coz if the big bang is a hoax so are the theories of evolution. To keep the tax money pouring in they say it's not proved wrong, but yes, PROVED WRONG long ago. Here are a few points(just a few) to prove they are wrong.
1) According to the law of conservation of angular momentum, pieces breaking off from a swirling object should rotate in the same direction, i.e if clock wise then all the particles rotate clock-wise. But do you know some planets rotate in the opposite direction? even some galaxies? Check it out.
2) They say all the 109 elements were formed from a single hydrogen molecule, but do you know that you can't fuse past iron in the periodic table?
Too much to list, go to this link and you'll understand why the big bang and evolution is a big lie.

Answer 5

In everyday language the phrase "I have a theory about" means that I conjecture something.


In science a Thesis is a conjecture that needs defending amongst other learned people and the word Theory means something more.


The Theory of the Big Bang:
In the 1950's two models of the universe seemed to fit the universe as we see it from earth: One was the Steady State Model and the other the Big Bang Model. With the discovery of the afterglow of an explosion at microwave frequencies, the choice between the two was settled and the steady state model was rejected. This much is settled and now we look to further experimental results which will help us understand the Big Bang Model in more detail.

The Theory of Evolution is well understood. We can evolve breeds of horses by Human Selection, and the process of Natural Selection evolves species by pressure from the environment. We can see this at work in bacteria and in higher animals we can explain the results of the natural selection even though the breeding time of the animals is long compared with our liftimes. Darwin's Theory is grounded in a lot of observational results and is one of our most understood theories.

If the words of Moses, Mohammed and Jesus, and the other Prophets really were the words spoken by god and faithfully written down then we would be forced to reject the evidence of our inquiries. This is what is called Revealed Knowledge as opposed to Scientific Knowledge.

This Revealed Knowledge tends to justify the beliefs of certain tribes and tends to reflect the values of their ways of life and their tribal or economic cultures.

Answer 6

Nothing in science is ever completely proven. We always assume that we could be wrong. Also, a scientific law has absolutely no more proof or credence than a scientific theory. The only difference between the two is that a law explains one small process, and a theory explains many laws, and links them together. The theory of gravitation (larger masses have more gravity) will never become the 'law of gravitation' and cell theory (the idea that life is made up of cells) will never become 'cell law'. Your friends are wrong, but if you are willing to denounce something just because it is a theory, you have a lot of denouncing to do.

Please just look at the evidence for each, and don't dismiss the proof just because they are 'theories'.

Answer 7

They are theories - everything in science is theories which try to model some activity of nature. When a theory seems to agree very well with observations the theory is often incorrectly referred to as "fact" .
The evidence is quite strong that the Big Bang theory models the universe quite well. The same is true of evolution. Read
http://www.esaSC/SEMC6TS1VED_0.HTML - on the Big Bang.
The Genesis creation "story"? "theory" ? ,"fact"? is much simpler but requires faith to accept and does not allow for improvement.
Observed difficulties in Genesis are simply overruled by "God can do anything".

Answer 8

Well, is math a law? do we really know that three and three are six? In the cosmic sense, do we really know what they mean? We believe these things because we cannot disprove them. Evolution and the Big Bang have not been disproven, so why not believe them. Evolution has more evidence than anything else, and even christians believe in the big bang, because god had to make it.

Answer 9

Not proven beyond any doubt, no. The Big Bang and evolution are the best theories to explain observed phenomena.

Answer 10

oh my gosh no, a law can be tested and retested and the same findings attained each time. i will admit creationism cant be "proven" scientifically but we have evidence (scientific evidence not just the bible) like the 2nd law of thermodynamics Evolutionism claims that over billions of years everything is basically developing UPWARD, becoming more orderly and complex. However, this basic law of science (2nd Law of Thermodynamics) says the opposite. The pressure is DOWNWARD, toward simplification and disorder. this basically means that evolution says we became more complex but something they bring up actually works against them.
