A lot of the early support for the Big Bang theory came from Creationists. Now they don't like it anymore, so I'm wondering what happened?
Why did they change their minds?

LOL... that's funny!
I think the Big Bang theory is losing steam now anyway. The new thing is that membranes swat into each other and this universe was therefore created in the "big splat," which I like just because being created out of a big splat sounds cool. :-)

The 50's were a bit before my time. I grew up with the Paluxey river (human foot prints next to dinosaurs both fossilized) and trilobites in a man's foot print. Both of these are proven hoaxes. The one I find interesting is the London Texas hammer, interesting as it has been debunked several times, the first in 1985, but it is still used as proof.
Edit:
M-theory doesn't do away with the big bang, it merely explains how "singularity" was formed and that it is not singular. Well it explains a lot more than that...

Um, the big band era was the '30s and '40s. And creationists absolutely hate swing.

No, but I had a creationist friend back in the late 70s that had a big bong.

Well they looked at the details and figured out that it still didn't line up with their book.

I was around when Christian groups protested against ecologists.
