Cosmologist say that the universe started 16 billion years ago, when all the matter in the universe was compressed into the size of a dot about this big------->. That little dot exploded, producing all the billions of galaxacies. These cosmologist say that one day all the matter is going to be compressed again into a small dot, and that it will explode again, producing what we have today. They say that this happens every 80-100 billion years.
My question, how do they know? How can they make such stupid, outlandish statements. What evidence is there that the universe shrinks down and explods every 100 billion years.
My last question, all the evolutionist here were quiet. Let's see if we have any pseudo-scientist here who wants to impress us with his knowledge of cosmology.

The cosmologist know about as much as the evolutionist. Both of them rely heavily upon guess work. There is no evidence of a big bang, nor evidence that there is a big bang every 100 billion years. Same as there is no evidence of any missing links. All they have are their theories. Ten years from now, they'll have different theories. And they call that science. That kind of cosmology and evolution isn't science. It's like the old shell game. They'll keep moving their theories around until they can come up with more plausible stories, calling theories fact.
If these scientist would spend more time reading their Bibles, they will find the facts they are looking for.

--No one knows--only God. It's just a theory based on Doppler--scientists can tell how far something is away based on light waves and how many miles something is away--they can also tell from DNA and samples from other planets and comets passing how the universe works--could be true--they prob know a lot more than the average guy--I choose to believe in God and science--a part of the master plan.
Why couldn't have God decided to have the "Big Bang Theory" and Evolution (as I believe in--his original 7 days could have been 7 million years--we didn't know his time frame in Genesis--re-read it it follows how evolutionists say it we evolved think of it on those terms).
No one "knows" anything--I mean why disbelieve in evolution, the universe being a dot--but we are all God's children yet we are at war under an insane leader and have men like Hitler and Sadaam--that is more unbelievable to me--why would God create these men and not the prior theories--just be a good person and don't worry about things--have your beliefs and leave others alone on theirs--like we should do with religion--good people are good people--leave it alone. Everyone has a mind when we fight over differences of opinions over things that really don't affect us we are playing into Satan.

That sounds more like something creationists make up and then blame on scientists.
It’s funny that ‘pseudo science’ is an insult to real scientists, but a true description of anti-evolutionists, creationists, and ID believers.
I am not sure where you got your information, but modern physics only explains the universe back to the Big Bang, and not before, nor does science make that claim.
Light from the explosion of the Big Band can still be seen and the sound of it can still be heard. So, you can believe the empirical evidence that you can observe for yourself in the real world - or you can believe the mythology of illiterate goat herders who lived thousands of years ago that claims that some imaginary, invisible ‘thing’ created the universe.

Seriously, did you ever go to any school?
Your understanding of history and science is so wrong that it is impossible to be more wrong. Honestly, I've never met anyone who knew less.

Cosmologists now say the universe will continue to expand and not collapse.
They were wrong with the first theory.
They claim to know by estimating the amount of mass in the univese and the rate of its expansion. They now believe that the universe is continuing to expand at a faster rate, but cannot explain that. That means that universe will not collapse. If the universe were to to collapse at some point in time, its expansion would be slowing down now instead of speeding up - as they currently believe it is doing.

because in the whole great wide universe that boom leaves an echo and mathematically the laws of the universe say that this must happen i don't know about the time frame but i do know that the universe as does everything in nature moves in cycles. that's how they can make such statements, there is evidence to support these statements, found in things like back round radiation and from other sources such as the rate of expansion, and laws of uniformity all thing are in their natural state symmetrical. perhaps if you were a little more educated these new finagled ideas wouldn't seem so fantastic and incomprehensible too you.

Here's how. First of all, there is no known size of the extremely dense mass, known as a black hole, so do not relate it to the size of a dot. How black holes work is they collapse on themselves from the extreme amount of "pressure" and unleashes, in every direction, many particles. The planets, etc. Eventually, how it would work, is that after an extremely long period of time, the black hole would begin to suck back in the particles, planets, etc... and it would condense again. This is known as the opposite of the Big Bang, the Big Crunch. How scientist know this, is, they study smaller black holes and how they react to the things around them. They base their knowledge on these representations, but they do not call it fact. Want to know why? In science and religion, nothing is fact. Scientists call this a theory. It is one of the more logical theories out there on the subject matter. See the links below:

They do not know. What you are referring to is called a Theory. In science you put forth a theory. People work at proving or disproving that theory. In this way knowledge grows and is shared. Sometimes theories are wrong, and sometimes they are right. The important thing is we are better off for someone having had the thought.

I'm an evolutionist and a professional biologist... I won't pretend to understand the physics and mathematics underlying modern cosmological thinking. I am struck, however, by how close Genesis is to describing modern cosmological theory.

Ryan B (above a bit) said it on the dot. You're fairly arrogant/ignorant to label the scientists like that without decent enough research.

You cannot tell people that they are the only ones who make such statements. I have lost count of the number of times the religious have insisted so firmly that their story is the exact proof. You aren't any wiser than this questioner, so how would you know if the statement is right or wrong?
