showing a pic of a guy that looks exactly like some weird brilliant scientist to discredit his claims of being some weird brilliant scientist was a complete fail.
But it's possible to be weird, brilliant, and a crank.

How long do you propose everything was together in an unstable state before you think it went bang one day and what was the tipping point that made it bang.
Also if everything was together who created it? Do you believe in a creator at all?

There’s so many concepts to physics we likely don’t understand so Big Bang may have made sense up to now given what we do know.
We don’t even fully understand gravity and it’s effect on space time.

Interesting
BBT will go down as the biggest lie ever told and it is sad we teaching it as absolute truth. Many people have forgot the "T" part of BBT, is the most important part of BBT.
This is what leads to people believing in fake vaccines

Why would there be no God on other planets? An even better question is why would God only create life one time on one planet? If He has no beginning or end, why all of a sudden up and create one planet in the expanse of the universe and put people on it?
Why not?

quote:It was your claim that BBT does not explain why we see the same thing in all directions. You need to support that claim and/or propose an alternate theory.
No, because I am not a believer in BBT.
quote:Because it explains a lot of observations about the universe, and thus far there are zero alternatives that do it better or even really come close.
Explain why you believe it so much.

You understand that theories never get promoted to "fact" or "law", right?

If there was “everything all together” then the BBT no longer explains the beginning of the universe since, as you say, everything already existed. Where did this “everything” come from? How did it become “everything”? And what caused this “everything all together” to be unstable?

Next up: “Climate Change”
Todays ruling class of Science doesn’t even realize that they have become the modern day Galileo persecutors.
I would hope that this might humble them, but I won’t hold my breath.

This is one guy who has been arguing against the Big Bang for decades. His cherry-picking of data doesn't make his position correct.

Do folks think that unanswered questions outside the scope of the BBT refute it?

So just downvote and ignore my questions instead of answering. I thought you believed in science. If you did, you’d welcome questions. But you don’t welcome questions. You react to questions with hostility and derision. You don’t believe in science as science. You believe in science as a religion. And any questioning of your faith is unacceptable.
Your immediate downvote proves my point. Thank you.

The BBT never explained the origin of the universe, only the universe in its current state.

I don't know. Maybe it always existed.

This is what the BBT explains.

There are answers to these questions out there. They are beyond my understanding, so I suggest doing a little research if you are truly curious.

At one point the universe had ten dimensions. Physics explains the dimensions folding upon themselves. We are currently in the third dimension. Eventually the universe becomes one dimensional and a Big Bang will happen. Then the process repeats itself.

So, much like religion, faith is required.

I am highly curious. And sadly there can be little to no honest and open questions as this thread proves because believers in BBT tolerate questions no better than religious people tolerate questions on their views.
