Is the big bang theory a bunch of bs?

Question

How could a bunch of peons living on a little rock in space answer such a large question with such a small amount of infornmation?

Ok i understand that a theory is not set in stone, but my question is how much evidence do you really need to create a theory, and do we really have enough to start assuming things of such a grand scale. It is very easy to speculate when clues seem to come together, but how can you prove a theory wrong? With another theory? I personally think that the theory can never be proven nor disproven so what do we really gain by even speculating in the first place?

Answer 1

We can determine that the universe is expanding at a constant rate (with things like red shift). Therefore, we assume the universe to always have been expanding at that rate because the law of parsimony states that all things equal, the explanation with the least terms is the best one. There's no reason to believe that there was a time when the universe did not expand and it is an extra term, so it is illogical to assume that the universe did not always expand.

So going back in time, we come to a point in which everything was compressed into a singularity. (And as an aside: everything in that singularity, which makes up our universe, did not necessarily have to come from anywhere. It could've always have been there - somewhat like how in Christianity, maybe Judaism and Islam too, God is eternal and did not appear at any point in time)

Answer 2

The theory indicates that the Universe and the time we observe had a begining;therefore, a creation of all mass structures in the Universe.
The theory does not read the Mind of our Creator of the Universe. It just indicate that the theory stems from relativity field equation where they backstepped to calculate the mass density of the Universe as one lump mass which they indicate as the size of a golf ball.
No mechanism is really described on architecture or Creation of elements as we know them.Never the less the theory attributes the expansion of the Universe to be taking place at a rate faster than the speed of light.That is a very rapid expansion.
No concrete reason or exact mechanism is given as what is causing the apparent outward motion of the Galaxies.
When it comes to Creation , Physics is "playing with dice".
And Einstein was right about that.

Answer 3

Yes, the "big bang" theory is almost certainly incorrect, and the evidence mounting against it increases with every new discovery in astronomy. It has resulted from the counter-intuitive belief that the weakest force we know of, i.e. gravitation, governs our universe. Thus black holes, arbitrarily placed "dark" matter, quasars, and other myths were invented to make the theory "work". Also, gravitation is inherently unstable and incapable of explaining, for example, the organization of our solar system.

However, it is much more likely that electrical forces rule our universe, despite the belief by most astrophysicists that electrical forces in the cosmos are negligible. This article ( http://www.holoscience.com/news.php?article=gdaqg8df ) gives a more in-depth discussion of the topic. As it turns out, electrical forces can stabilize planetary orbits, explain the structure and behavior of stars, and predict the "spiral arm" shape of galaxies, all without singularly massive objects or other fairy tales. All that is needed is a bit of plasma physics and a willingness to let go of the erroneous "science" stories we've all been fed for the past few decades. I'm no expert astrophysicist, but I do have degrees in physics and electrical engineering and the electrical model of the universe makes a lot more sense to me than the idea that our universe is 95% matter that cannot be seen or detected using modern equipment.

Answer 4

You either do not understand,or you are completely clueless,that's why it's called a theory,like many other theories it's not set in stone,untill something better comes along,the big bang theory is being accepted above all other theories by many scientists around the world.Don't forget,some of those peons have made it possible to travel from this little rock in space,to another rock in space

Answer 5

These are some from the first page of the website in the sources. Check it out :) Sheldon: Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, and as it always has, rock crushes scissors. Sheldon: When you understand the laws of physics, Penny, anything is possible. And may I add, "Mwah, ha, ha." Sheldon: Why are you crying? Penny: Because I'm stupid! Sheldon: That's no reason to cry. One cries because one is sad. For example, I cry because others are stupid, and that makes me sad. Sheldon: I made tea. Leonard: I don't want tea. Sheldon: I didn't make tea for you. This is my tea. Leonard: Then why are you telling me? Sheldon: It's a conversation starter. Leonard: That's a lousy conversation starter. Sheldon: Oh, is it? We're conversing. Checkmate. Sheldon: Proxima Centauri's the nearest star. The celestial bodies that follow are: Alpha Centauri A, Toli, Barnard's Star, Wolf 359, Laland 21185, Sirius A, Sirius B, BL Ceti, UV Ceti, Ross 154, Ross 248, Epsilon Eridani, Lac 9352, Ross 128, EZ Aquarii A, EZ Aquarii B, EZ Aquarii C, Procyon A. Those are the stars that are nearest to me, Tra la la and fiddle dee dee! Sheldon: I promised Penny. Leonard: Promised Penny what? Sheldon: I wouldn't tell you the secret. (pause) Shhhhh!!!! Leonard: What secret? Tell me the secret. Sheldon: Mom smokes in the car. Jesus is okay with it, but we can't tell dad. Leonard: Not that secret, the other secret. Sheldon: I'M BATMAN!!!! SHHHH!!! Leonard: Come on! We have a combined IQ of 360 we should be able to figure out how to get into a stupid building. *Two girls selling cookies ring every bell, the door opens* Sheldon: What do you think their combined IQ is ? Raj: I don't like bugs, okay? They freak me out. Sheldon: Interesting. You're afraid of insects and women. Ladybugs must render you catatonic. Rajesh: Why so glum, chum? Sheldon: Apparently you can't hack into a government supercomputer and then try to buy uranium without the Department of Homeland Security tattling to your mother. Leonard: You'll never guess what just happened. Sheldon: You went out into the hallway, stumbled into an inter-dimensional portal which brought you 5,000 years into the future, which you took advantage of the advanced technology to build a time machine, and now you're back to bring us all with you to the year 7010, where we transported to work at the thinkatorium by telepathically controlled dolphins. Sheldon: I am aware of the way humans usually reproduce which is messy, unsanitary and based on living next to you for three years, involves loud and unnecessary appeals to a deity. Penny: Oh, God. Sheldon: Yes, exactly. Zack: You know, I saw this great thing on the Discovery Channel. Turns out if you kill a starfish it'll just come back to life. Sheldon: Was the starfish wearing boxer shorts? Because you might have been watching Nickelodeon. Penny: So what do you say Sheldon, are we your X-men? Sheldon: No, the X-men were named for the X in Charles Xavier. Since I am Sheldon Cooper, you will be, my C-men. Sheldon: There's no need to interact with me. I'm just here to observe. Leonard: What were you doing at Penny's? Sheldon: Well, we had dinner, played some games, and then I spent the night. Oh, and you'll be happy to know that I now have a much better understanding of 'friends with benefits.' Sheldon: Ah, gravity - thou art a heartless *****. Penny: I finally convinced the restaurant to give me a bar-tending shift, so I need to practice mixing drinks. Leonard: That's Great! The key to acquiring proficiency in any task is repetition. Sheldon:With certain obvious exceptions, *Leonard and Penny Look at Sheldon.* Sheldon: Suicide for example. Sheldon: Why hast thou forsaken me, O deity whose existence I doubt? Leonard: For God's sake, Sheldon, do I have to hold up a sarcasm sign every time I open my mouth? Sheldon (intrigued): You have a sarcasm sign? *Playing 3D chess* Sheldon: Checkmate. Leonard: Oh, again? Sheldon: Obviously, you're not suited for three dimensional chess. Perhaps three dimensional Candy Land would be more your speed. Leonard: Just reset the board! Sheldon: It must be humbling to suck on so many levels.

Answer 6

Who knows? But for now, it's the best explanation we have about the beginning of the universe. It's kind of like asking an ant how the Earth was formed. Well maybe not exactly like that, but we will never understand exactly how the universe was made because we weren't there. Any theory about it is merely speculation right now.

Answer 7

Sounds like you answered the question yourself with such a small amount of information. If you read about the "big bang", inflation, and string theory you'd perhaps have a more open mind.

The Big Bang theory is not bs, its simply incomplete in itself. Add the new ideas of inflation and superstring theory, and together they seem to explain much of what we can detect of the origin of our universe.

Answer 8

Theories are built on evidence. While the name "big bang" is a misnomer and generally promotes misunderstanding of the theory, it is the best current explanation we have for phenomena such as the cosmic microwave background energy and Hubble's Law.

If you have a better idea, then let's have it. Just saying it ain't so is without any merit and merely argumentative.

Answer 9

simple answer, No one knows... THeres Like a million theories out ther including that crazy infinite universe one.....crazey,

Answer 10

So you're just going to say it's flat out wrong without any proof either way?
