if you believe in the big bang theory?

Question

the big band theory says at one time all matter in universe was compact into ball about the size of a basketball.if this is true why did it not ignite into star like far less dense clouds of H does.

Answer 1

because you do not know the theory. these was no size or matter. it was all energy, compacted into a geometric point with no volume. once it expanded and the big bang happened some of that energy cooled into matter.

it seems as if everyone over looked my answer completely

and i should also state that the actual big bang theory doesnt say what banged, where, when, how, or why. it just said that since all of the galaxies seem to be moving away there must have been a time when they were all at the same point at the same time. thats it, nothing else, other theories talk about the rest.

Answer 2

This is the best explanation science has. When looking at the universe we see that it is expanding and following the path of all the stuff we find it all started at a central point. Measurements and mapping of the cosmic background radiation give us a look at the universe long ago.
Gravitational forces that would have contained all the matter in a space that dense would not allow for ignition like that. If it were to ignite it would just explode with tremendous force, i.e. the big bang.

Heh, god, funny.

Answer 3

The universe did exhibit some characteristics of a huge star- the matter was already much hotter than today's stars though- it was a very hot fireball, which just kept on expanding.

Around the time you mentioned, the universe started to rapidly expand in size through a process called 'inflation'. This overcame the force of gravity and the fireball did not remain static like a burning star, but expanded.

Today, theorists also believe that a form of exotic energy known as 'Dark Energy' has an anitgravitational effect which is responsible for the current expansion of universe accelerating. Dark Energy may have played a significant role in stopping the universe collapsing back in on itself, as if it were a giant star, in the early stages.

Answer 4

It's not a matter of believing cause it's not a religion. Big Bang is the best explanation science has at this point. Noone said a better explanation can't be developed.

It's like asking if I believe in Newton's theory. We can't say it's a wrong theory. It is just limited.

Answer 5

i know this is tough to accept, for me, too, but some theories are a bit beyond us to really understand. Not that it matters.

Evolution can be expressed fairly simply and had ample evidence to show it is likely true, yet the other day I drove past a church (out in the boonies) that had a sign out front "Come in and find out why Evolution is false! Yeah, we living in the 21st century.

The Big Bang theory can be expressed only poorly in words and without a pretty good background in General Relativity (which is as opaque as ... well, something REALLY opaque! to me), it just sounds kinda nutty.

Your best remedy is a few advanced physics classes. If this doesn't blow your skirt up, try a few Stephen Hawking books (i did them on tape, and NO its not Dr Hawking's computer voice, btw, he has a great sense of humor.).

Answer 6

i'm an agnostic and no, i do no longer think the massive bang concept. it somewhat is maximum possibly by using fact i don't have sufficient awareness of the sector. in spite of the undeniable fact that, i've got faith that the massive bang concept ought to no longer have occurred by using fact it defies maximum of regulations and rules that I even have found out via physics. there is not any longer any way i will see that each and every thing interior the universe could have been compacted into one factor, one atom and with none exterior tips, escalate straight away to the universe because it somewhat is right this moment. i think of that this "concept" grew to become into created with a view to describe a happening (the commencing up of the universe and time) that individuals won't be able to confirm. human beings won't be able to photograph the existence of a possibility that the universe could have been indefinite, without a commencing up or an end and subsequently an thought grew to become into created with what I evaluate bogus evidence with a view to fulfill the individuals's crave of an answer to an thought they do no longer prefer to charm to close.

Answer 7

Well... if i understand your question: I think it has to do with the fact the fact that gravity (which according to some people like Stephen Hawking bends the space-time) pulls matter together.
It's not like at first you had the planets and stuff... maybe not even hidrogen balls.

This also makes it possible for low density matter to react with other stuff and make more dense stuff.
Like in the sun: you have hidrogen which reacts to become helium. And then helium becomes something even more dense.

Answer 8

In my opinion that's kind of hard to answer, because I don't think anyone knows what happened before the big bang. If anyone did and they could prove it, then your question could be found out. One reason could be it didn't have the right materials. Remember this is the beginning of the universe, so not many things existed at the time.

Answer 9

Yes I believe in the Big bang... but I don't believe that Matter , or the Big bang is un-caused...
P/S I WROTE THIS...ALL.


My research ... A all day project Was the Big bang uncaused?


I have decided to do a little research on the subject of the big bang as a Christian I believe that The universe came into existence by a Creator , meaning that the"BIG BANG" had a Cause.

Atheist refer to this position as " the God of the gaps" (1)Which I feel is unfair compared to Atheist theories on Creation which are extremely illogical and impossible In a naturalistic materialistic World. The reason I'm writing is to show that its more logical to believe in a Creator then to believe that matter, and the big bang are uncaused. (Which ill explain why below)


Is it logical to believe that a creator caused the big bang?
The answer is yes, its better to believe that what ever comes into existence has a cause then to believe that things can came into existence uncaused.


To illustrate my point of why believing that the big bang is uncaused is illogical, I will use a story" Imagine you and me were walking down the street and we both hear a "BANG" no one in there right mind would ever say that the "BANG" we both heard had no cause. Logically one would say that that "BANG" was caused by something .

So if the "BIG BANG" had no cause then whats to say that the "BANG" we heard has no cause?

Logically if something happens once it should be able to happen again right?(Materialistic speaking)

"The consequence of the logic that things don't need a cause would lead the break down of science and logic" But in the real world what ever comes into being has a cause.
(Its very hypocritical to say the "BIG BANG" has no cause but everything else does?

Christian philosopher William Lane Craig said he "..... would compare...(The atheist belief that the Big bang was uncaused )to a secular miracle. A Christian miracle is "God did it." A secular miracle is "it happened without any cause." (6)

I would argue that both positions require faith but the real question is which one is more reasonable?
Is it more reasonable to say a Creation needs a Creator rather then that Creation does not need a creator?

Most Atheist would disagree and say that its not illogical but there is no real way for them to show why its a logical position. In other words "Mental gymnastics"

Is It logical to believe that the" BIG BANG" and Matter had no cause?
NO!
If we look at the Universe we can all universally agree thats its expanding so if we were to rewind the universe it would shrink into one single dot and eventually into nothing but in a naturalistic sense that would be impossible if there is no outside intervention from a Creator. The other choice which is that the big bang was a condensed ball of matter with no creator or cause is to deny that even matter needs a beginning .

"The atheist's assertion that matter/energy is eternal is scientifically wrong "(5)

To say that Matter/Energy is Eternal bluntly goes against the "second law of thermodynamics
"Which states"that the amount of energy in a system that is available to do work is decreasing. "(2)

"Atheist say that Matter has always existed and does not need a Creator"
If Matter has no Cause then it is "infinity old" and if it's been around forever then there would be no usable energy left which is "Entropy "
Webster defines Entropy plainly as to "decline and degenerate " (3)Which is exactly what is happening to the universe as we speak and if this is true then eventually all energy in the universe will be Useless if we are in a closed universe
and this can also be applied to "Pre-Big bang " Conditions if Matter is without cause then it to would of degenerated into useless energy by now if its infinity old.(4)

But because there is still useful Matter, and Energy this means that somewhere along the line Matter to had a beginning. If not there would be no life what so ever. So logically its possible that the Big bang not only was the Beginning of Time and Space but also the beginning of Matter.
So Who Created Matter, Space and Time?

The Answer is a Un-Caused Cause which basically in simple terms means that the cause that created time, Is not held by time and would also be Greater and outside of the universe,time,space,matter etc.
Which is why God does not need a Cause only in a naturalistic Universe would Matter, Time, and Space beginning be impossible " a Secular Miracle" Which I would argue takes more faith to believe in then the other option that Time,Space, and Matter had a Cause which created time and not limited by time, the universe and its laws. It is Independent from the universe and the only logical reason why the universe, matter and time exist. This proves that the Universe is not a Closed System and has and will have intervention in the future.

Answer 10

yes but believe it its scientifically possible but the size of the basket ball is hard to believe, at least its more believable than god made the universe theory
