I just watched the National Geographic Channel's show on the Big Bang last night and it was completely fascinating to me. It struck me that most people who believe in another beginning or otherwise don't believe in the Big Bang would probably have no interest in this fascinating show. Would any of you who believe in a different beginning find a show on the Big Bang interesting? Other comments?
I don't think you would have to believe it to find it very interesting.

It was Naked Science: Birth of the Universe.

I find all beliefs and scientific theories interesting. I would totally watch it.

I find all science interesting. I hate to sound like a creationist but in the case of the big bang it is still a theory albeit a credible one based on sound evidence but I think a lot of people accept it as fact without being aware that science doesn't even know for certain that the universe had a starting point. That awaits a theory of quantum gravity being formulated and only then might big bang theory become indisputable fact. I favour the idea that the universe has always existed.

People don't like their beliefs questioned, a creationist would find the 700 club much more interesting.
People believe what they want, and that doesn't just count religion, everything in life people believe what they want, hear what they want to hear, see what they wanna see, so the real truth is constantly shrouded in place of a more juicy rumor or in favor for something that doesn't challenge that persons beliefs,
This is why many mothers don't believe their daughters when they tell them that they were molested by their step fathers,
This is why many friendships and relationships are ended,
This is why we live in a false world, oblivious to what is really going on

Last night I heard an explaination in geography class that explained the big bang theory and I could totally see it all coming from the hand of God. The bible say's in the begining God created the heaven's and the earth, it doesn't say what method He used. The big bang doesn't say where the explosion or the hydrogen molecules came from. There is no instance in nature where something came from nothing.

I believe in God. I don't think that means the "Big Bang" idea is wrong. Maybe God used the "Big Bang" to create? Anyway I would watch the show and find it interesting. We must NEVER stop seeking knowledge in all fields and we must not fear it. True faith should love knowledge.

I haven't formed a solid opinion on the Big Bang. I'm still learning the in's and out's of it and thinking on it. I found it interesting back when I was a Xian, but maybe I was predisposed, considering the fact that I denounced xianity.

Actually, I'd say creationists (and I mean the true creationists, the ones who really believe women came from a rib) would take MUCH interest to it. They'd get together to write letters of protest, copy and paste alleged "mistakes of the program" that they got from some random website. If they didn't have science to attack, they'd be pretty bored.

Would a TV documentary on the Big Bang be completely uninteresting to a Creationist?
Not at all.
THE GOD said BANG!
Someone had to do it!
Otherwise where did all the stuff to go BANG come from -- from THE GOD!

I like listening to that stuff. However most information that you saw was either one interpretation of a set of data, or just speculation. I am fine with believing in the age of the universe that scientists present. I just believe that it had a creator and that that event was separate from the creation of life on earth. I do like listening to science, but I always listen for key words and try to be discerning in what I take as fact, or as someone's interpretation of a set of data. I do not do it to be blind or stubborn, I just consider it careful peer reviewing.

I find the stories in the Bible interesting and I'm an atheist.
