For those Evolutionist- what came before the big bang?

Question

I realize that you believe in the "big bang" theory to explain how we got here....but what was before the big bang? Night? Light? dust? Molecules? If so, what makes up the dust or molecules, and so on, and so on? No one can explain except our GOD! NO ONE, I mean NO One will EVER be able to explain this question. I will give out $100 to the most logical answer. Good luck.

Answer 1

Evolution has nothing to do with the Big Bang. Nothing came before the Big Bang, because time itself did not exist before the Big Bang. That energy that came from the Big Bang came from the space itself (matter is routinely created and self-annihilated via borrowing from space itself per quantum mechanics). One view is that there was a massive amount of such borrowing.

My question to you is, what came before God? Where did God come from?

Answer 2

Basically, the time-space continuum (in other words, reality as we know and measure it) as we know it came into existance with the Big Bang, but that does not mean that nothing preceded it. Whatever did precede it (if anything) would have been an entirely different continuum, potentially with different laws of physic which we have no way of measuring.

Our universe we can measure with reasonable confidence, as all the corresponding evidence corraborates what came before it (sort of like you know you've messed up a crossword puzzle - sooner or later you find contradictions). From those measurements, the universe is clearly expanding in different directions from a singular point - the Big Bang.

If there was anything before that, the new, expanding continuum has erased and replaced it - sort of like not being aboe to guess what was on the halkboard last week when you know it's been erased, washed and re-written since then.

Whatever hypothesis we can draw of the pre-Big Bang, it would be a theory with nothing to back it up - thus not meeting the definition of a scientific theory, which requires evidence and scrutiny.

Answer 3

Look who you sound like now... ahem hovind ahem....

As for your question, there are plenty of theories and ideas out there... scientists don't know for sure... it could be that our universe is in a continuous cycle of big bangs and crunches, or that there are many more universes, some very unlike ours... at least science is taking steps and coming up with logical hypothesis for such question...

let me ask you this; what was before God? And don't give me any of that "God is the ultimate creator, he needs no creator" bs, because that is NOT a valid scientific arguement. All I have to say is that there is another creator who creates Gods and he is also beyond human perception, and therefore can never be understood...

Answer 4

light did not exist until 300 000 years after the big bang.
What existed before the big bang - we do not know, but collectively we are attempting to figure it out.

Why is God the default argument. Just because I do not know something doesn't mean that god exists. I'm not really sure what the weather will be like in a week and because I don't really know does that mean that god exists.

You seem to be arguing for the "I don't know god".

What happens if we discover what happens before the big bang? String theory if it turns out to be true might just explain this. If it does god will have to be pushed back into another area that we humans know little or nothing about.

Before you completely dismiss my argument, curiosity is a powerful motivator for me to understand more about the world around me. The phrase "I do not know" is a challenge to figure out something new.

Answer 5

Stephen Hawking usually answers that question like this: "What lies north of the North Pole?"

In other words, nothing. The Big Bang was the beginning of time, so nothing came before it. I think that's pretty much the accepted explanation right now. There's also the multiverse theory in which there were a series of big bangs, but that hasn't been proven as of yet.

Also, what is the likelihood that a religion established two thousand years ago in ONE region of ONE planet in ONE solar system in ONE galaxy out of billions of galaxies correctly explains the origin of a universe that is around fifteen billion years old? That doesn't seem like a very logical conclusion to me.

Answer 6

In this universe gravity is providing an attractive force between all matter. This means that some day all matter will stop accelerating away from each other (which it was propelled by the big bang) and will be pulled back together into a single point like the one the big bang came from and will have a big bang again. You now have a cycle of the universe expanding, contracting, exploding and expanding again. Oh and evolution has nothing to do with the big bang. And what created god? Say no to jesus

Answer 7

You are confusing Evolutionists with Astronomers. Evolutionists don't necessarily believe in the Big Bang Theory. Physicists and Astronomers developed the Big Bang Theory to explain what we see.

And those two groups have an explanation as to what came before the big bang, String theory, Brane Theory and a number of others have been proposed.

Answer 8

No one can "prove" any thing concerning the creation of this universe... I can not "prove" my faith to you... but I know it to be truth. By The Faith of The True Christian Faith, God Created all that is this universe. Befor this univers there was God and The Heaven he existed in. What came befor that... again, the answer is the same... no one knows and untill God decides to clue us in we never will....But I'll bet that when God set off the BIG BANG all of the angels were covering their ears.

Just put the $100 in the plate tomorrow for me...

Answer 9

You know I do not remember for sure, I was trying to light the coal furnace on the sun when there was a big bang. when things setteled down. I looked out and there just passed the moon was this neat planet. that I called earth. so then a swarm of bugs flew down there and landed. and things just kept going from there

Answer 10

What shall I do with my $100???
Time started with the big bang therefore asking what came before the big bang is an impossibility. A difficult concept to grasp for anyone of any faith or no faith at all.
