sciences, they are thought not to accept without evidence any ideas or priciples presented in the classroom, it is on this basis that one needs to examine the evidences to see, is there really a God? an article appeared in the washington post a few years ago that revealed that the expansion of the universe has created a headache for the big bang theorist,the big bang theory is a hypothesis that suggest that there was a huge explosion of matter about 10 billion years ago, the proponents of this theory continue to state that the cosmos as we see it today is a result of that explosion and that the universe has cycled (explosion, expansion, gravitational contractio, explosion, etc.) for eons, the problem is best stated by the article itself: "in the past 30 years, astronomers have been able to account in the stars and galaxies they see for only 3% of the mass or matter that would have had to be present at the time of creation to explain the size of the universe and the way it seems to be..

If they're going to teach you to research the evidence, they should also teach you to seek out sources more authoritative than old Washington Post articles. Current cosmology sees the universe as composed of 4% ordinary matter, 23% cold dark matter, and 73% dark energy. The physical nature of these last two is not known.

The big bang theory is a theory - it can be changed with new evidence or completely thrown out if contradicting data is obtained. (Only in biology is a theory the best thing, bio can't have laws because it deals with changing unpredictable organisms). The big bang theory is our current best SCIENTIFIC explaination for how the universe came to be. I believe most of the matter has been accounted for in dark matter and energy at this point. The big bang and 3 possible predictions: the universe is ever expanding/contracting, it will expand to a certain point and stop, or it will expand forever each depending on how much mass is present. I think current data suggests it will continue expanding with no contraction.

Religion and science do not go hand in hand. Most believe that the big bang was the beginning of time and space, it was not an explosion, it took the form of a very rapid expansion after the first sub atomic particles condensed from the pin point of pure energy that was the source of matter being converted from energy.

The expansion of the universe is the birth of new matter. Nothing more. And explosion didn't create the universe, and science can't prove it. And I'm not going to let apes try to tell me it did.
