I know that Hinduism and Buddhism do. Are there any other religions that believe in the Big Bang theory???

If I read correctly, then Buddhists (like Jains) believe that energy can neither be created and nor can it be destroyed. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.

If you categorise Jains as Hindus, you should realise that Jains do not believe in the Big Bang theory. They believe the earth was never created, and nor can it be destroyed for the very reason I stated in the first paragraph.

the huge Bang isn't a non secular element, and is not linked with any faith. it is not a count of "believing" interior the huge Bang or evolution seeing as they're shown, yet extremely a count of "accepting" them as certainty. Atheists and agnostics are often those to settle for those over religious varieties. yet there are a number of Christians who settle for the two considered one of them. I fairly do not see why it is so hard to have confidence in the two. And in order that which you already know, "atheism" isn't a faith.

I don't disbelieve the big bang theory. I'm a Christian and I believe that God created the universe...by the same token, I accept that I'm not God and that I can't possibly understand how he did it. The idea of a "big bang" is certainly logically consistent with the idea of "let there be light" (boom!) but I believe the concept is, by virtue of our limited understanding, overly simplistic.

Sure, I've got no issues with the Big Bang Theory

I am Christian and I believe in the Big Bang and many other christians too. It is a myth that we do not believe in that as well as other scientific facts.

I've been able to correlate all scientific 'discoveries' that I'm aware of into all religious doctrines that I am aware of. So, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Egyptian, Wiccan, most Pagan religions....I would guess Islam, but I haven't really studied that religion much. I'm pretty sure if you have any religion that is a viable path to the Godhead than it would support scientific understanding. :)
You have to remember that just because some one is a member of a particular religion that only means they are a follower... Usually of someone who calls themselves an authority. To find the true essence of any religion requires research, discipline, study and an open mind. ;)

I've never heard of Buddhism or Hinduism believing in the big bang, but I've never done that much research on it. What about Scientology? they're all into that intergalactic stuff.

Yes. The spiritualist movement has always accepted this and evolution. Science is not incompatible with religion.Science can help religions understand how God creates. There really doesn't have to be this combative relationship between the two.

I'm certain Roman Catholicism accepts the validity of the Big Bang.

They also believe that humans evolved from a common ancestor.


From the Vatican's website:

63. According to the widely accepted scientific account, the universe erupted 15 billion years ago in an explosion called the “Big Bang” and has been expanding and cooling ever since. Later there gradually emerged the conditions necessary for the formation of atoms, still later the condensation of galaxies and stars, and about 10 billion years later the formation of planets. In our own solar system and on earth (formed about 4.5 billion years ago), the conditions have been favorable to the emergence of life. While there is little consensus among scientists about how the origin of this first microscopic life is to be explained, there is general agreement among them that the first organism dwelt on this planet about 3.5-4 billion years ago. Since it has been demonstrated that all living organisms on earth are genetically related, it is virtually certain that all living organisms have descended from this first organism. Converging evidence from many studies in the physical and biological sciences furnishes mounting support for some theory of evolution to account for the development and diversification of life on earth, while controversy continues over the pace and mechanisms of evolution. While the story of human origins is complex and subject to revision, physical anthropology and molecular biology combine to make a convincing case for the origin of the human species in Africa about 150,000 years ago in a humanoid population of common genetic lineage. However it is to be explained, the decisive factor in human origins was a continually increasing brain size, culminating in that of homo sapiens. With the development of the human brain, the nature and rate of evolution were permanently altered: with the introduction of the uniquely human factors of consciousness, intentionality, freedom and creativity, biological evolution was recast as social and cultural evolution.

Catholicism accepts the Big Bang. I was taught this in my science class at a Catholic school, and evolution, too.
