Please explain how you can believe in the Big Bang Theory and not God.  Who made the gases?

I have no clue!! God IS REAL and He DID make the universe. Please explain to me how everything just all of a sudden boomed and everything came to be. I DONT THINK SO! GOD MADE THE WUNIVERSE!!!!!!!!

The Big Bang \n\nAbout fifty years ago, American astronomers studying the galactic star clusters, stumbled on evidence that the entire Universe is blowing up before our eyes. According to their observations, all the galaxies in the Universe are moving away from us and from one another at very high speeds, and the most distant are receding at the extraordinary speed of hundreds of millions of miles an hour.\n\nFirst there was nothing and it blew up and then there was everything and scientists have calculated that it all happened in 1043 of a second. [The] echo of that explosion can still be heard bouncing around in space. Scientists claim that in the big bang all of the fundamental particles necessary for life were formed. All of the complexity we see around us is the result of this massive explosion.\n\n"The new finding hit the scientific world like a thunderclap." It meant that the idea of an ultimate beginning was no longer merely religious dogma. Science itself now indicated that the universe burst into existence at a particular time in the remote past.\n\nIn 1992 measurements by the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) and by the Hubble Space Telescope seemed to confirm beyond any reasonable doubt that the Big Bang cosmology is indeed correct. George Smoot, Professor at the University of California at Berkeley and Principle Investigator of the COBE team which made the discovery, said regarding these new observations, "What we have found is evidence for the birth of the universe . . . It's like looking at God."\n\nWorking backwards, the evidence implies that there was a time when the universe was infinitesimally small. The evidence from general relativity also indicates that it was not merely a case of the matter in the universe being concentrated at a particular location, but that space itself was this tiny. At a sudden instant in time all of the energy and mass in the universe was located at this infinitesimally small point and exploded. The currently observed outbound motion of the galaxies from each other is a continuing effect of that explosion.\n\n"The scientific community is prepared to consider the idea that God created the universe is a more respectable hypothesis today than at any time in the last 100 years," Frederic B. Burnham, science historian, declared.\n\nHowever, some die-hard secularists propose that the universe goes through endless cycles of expansions and collapses. Hence, eternity becomes nothing more than an eternal succession of big bangs followed by big crunches followed by big bangs followed by big crunches over and over again and again forever.\n\nBut this violates the second law of thermodynamics, the law of decay, that implies that the universe is in a process of gradual disintegration - running down, like a wound-up clock. And if it is running down, then there must have been a time when it was wound up. Once the big bang takes place and the universe begins its expansion, entropy starts to increase. From this point on it will never be able to go back to its original state.\n\nWhat's more, the first law of thermodynamics (the conservation of matter) implies that matter cannot just pop into existence or create itself. And therefore, if the universe had a beginning, then something external to the universe must have caused it to come into existence - something, or Someone, transcendent to the natural world.\n\nThe facts clearly indicate that the universe is not eternal, and it cannot originate itself The implication is that the universe began at a definite moment in time, in a flash of light and energy. Science has begun to sound eerily like Genesis 1: "And God said, 'Let there be light"' (1:3).\n\nThe evidence requires that we believe God formed the universe at His command, pointing to the importance of taking God at His word literally - from the beginning both of time and the Bible. Second, there is such a striking parallel between the Hebrews 1

A gas cloud needs to reach a critical density profile for it to spontaneously collapse into a fusion ball.\n\nI don't think the big bang has anything to do with the process though.

the big bang is just another theory that scientists came up with. it's not proven, just like many other theories are not proven, but it is the most supported by scientists because it says that a molecule (atom) the size of alittle dot exploded 10-17 billion years ago, and kept expanding. this is mostly supported because today, we still see other objects in space red shifted on doppler system, which means that objects are moving away from us, and expanding the border of the universe.

big bang didnt produced planets. it produced gases and small particles. when the gases started concentrating at a point in space, they experienced huge forces of gravity. and thus got molded in a shape which offers minimum volume(SPHERE).

Maybe it was god. maybe it was the big bang, maybe god created the universe through the big bang...I dont know...but I just want to 'think - out - loud' in this forum....maybe the Universe alwasy existed? No beginning? no end? Because we experience life and death in every cycle on Earth doesnt mean the Universe is also controlled in the same manner. *sigh* I wish I knew it all :)

You have to think back and ask the correct questions to answer this one. The theory of the "Big Bang" is incorrect. First Question: "Where did the matter come from for the "Big Bang"? Answer: "From somewhere else". Keep asking the question of "Where did something come from"? and you have to arrive at the fact that at some point, there was absolutely nothing.\n\nThis is a very hard concept to understand and think about because you always want to think in terms of a "void" if you try to think of nothing, but you have to realize that "a void" is "something" so you have to think of "nothing", "nada", "zip".\n\nThen you can arrive to the conclusion that...\n\n"It is the propensity for NOTHING to create SOMETHING".\n\nThe very first thing nothing would create is energy, something that would keep manifesting itself and propegate. That is what you would call "Life". Some refer it to "God" but it still all the same thing and exists everywhere in the universe.\n\nThis "Energy" would eventually become so extreme that it would create the "void", then the energy would transform into matter and gravity and begin to fill the void.\n\nThese three forces are the basis for all the laws of our current "Universe" and have dictated it's behavior ever since.\n\nThe universe if far older then the 13 billion years old we now can detect, it is constantly changing, expanding, and filling the ever greater void it creates as the energy, matter and gravity continues to be created.\n\nTo answer your question, you are sitting on it, it does not sit on anything.\n\nWhen your coporal body can no longer contain the energy that created you, as in all "living" things, your energy will again become part of this universe, no matter how trivial that energy may be, it is still a part of the entire energy that was and is still being created at this time.

First, let's take the Big Bang theories of the early universe.  I presume that's your reference.  Those theories begin with the state of the universe as we observe it today, and how it is changing (expanding).  Then they assume the physical laws which govern the physical behavior of the universe are unchanged.  Then they extrapolate into the past as far as imagination allows (currently 13.7 billion years).  This puts all the matter and energy of the universe into your extremely dense 'ball of mud'.  Then they try to check their calculations by taking this as the initial state of a simulation and see if they can get the result to look anything like our universe.\n\nThat's certainly speculative science, but it is science.  But it addresses the origin of neither the ball of mud nor the laws of physics.  Big Bang theories do involve chaos and chance, but they don't say the laws of physics came from chance.  They just are what they are.\n\nSo, where did the ball of mud and the laws of physics come from?  "God created them." is the only answer that's in any way satisfying.

Both. \n\nWho did it?  God.\nWhat did God do?  Create the heavens and the Earth.\nHow did God do it? By using techniques available at such a high order that only today are scientists beginning to understand some of the complexities of it all.\n\nSee, scientists and theologists are climbing up the same hill, but on different sides of the hill.  Once they get to the top, they will be able to see that they were both achieving the same goals and truths.  \n\nThe fact that the things God created are believed to be from magic is amazing.  Understand that the "Big Bang" theory does not exclude God's presence, but only accounts for the forces at work to produce the universe.  This is the "science" of God.  Remember, God has Angels to assist in accomplishing the Will of God.\n\nThe method God used to create the universe appeared to later scientists as the "Big Bang."  Liken this to the explosion of a kernal of corn that creates a different looking product called "popcorn."  Now, imagine yourself as a fly on the wall.  Could you understand what just happened to that kernel of corn?  Would you call it magic because you didn't understand the series of events taking place to alter the kernel's appearance?\n\nWell, this is far from the relativity of human's intelligence compared to an entity that has been around for before the beginning time as we know it.\n\nJust remember, the "Big Bang" theory only explains the processes to produce the universe, not the authors of those processes.

Who created that "all matter and energy".  Who caused that concentrated mass of material to explode.  Who created that single-celled organism.\n\nyes, i believe God is the origin of everything.

You cant prove there is not God no matter how many excuses people make. All you have to do is look around you and the beauty in this world and in the world it's self. No rediculuous big bang created life. Only God did this. Praise the Lord!

This is probably the best explanation I can give you:\n\nThe big bang theory basicaly states that at one point, there was a huge ammount of energy that clashed with itself into a given point. Through various experiments, it has been proven that clashing highly mobile sources of energetic particles can result in genesis, in the formation of matter and anti matter. This means that this energy was transformed into matter (matter is basicaly just energy trapped into the form of an atom, giving curvature to the universe, and therefore having mass). The matter, as we know it today, shot towards 1 direction from the bang, and the anti matter into the other. Theoreticaly there should be the same ammount of matter as there is antimatter in the universe. There are galaxies just like ours out there made up of antimatter, and would look virtualy the same. If these galaxies were to come together, they would turn back into the energy, since the reaction of 1 atom of hydrogen, and 1 antihydrogen atom result in the release of a photon (energy basicaly put). The universe was made this way.\n\nP.S.  A Wood's answer is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.  First of all, the big  bang does not state that it came from nothing, and second of all, the law of conservation of mass and energy is not newtonian law....  Jesus... such ignorance out there...

Evolutionists and Big Bang theory believers some how hate that question! There appears to be a fear to scientificaly postulate that there exists a Creator. \nThe Creator revealed ,in the Torah first Book and chapter, that there was a beginning,and that the substance of the earth and the substance of the heavens was created into being.\nThe exact scentific  formula of creation was not given\nperhaps it would have been too much for humans to phantom.\nThe present scientific theory of the Big Bang assumes a material out of the size of a golf ball was the precreation\nbasic material of the universe.\nAs far as the time it took for creation it could have taken place in a shorter time than that out line in the Torah(if you apply Einstein concept of time in his time formula). However ,the planning of creation\nmay have consisted of a very long dilated time. Whether it is possible to guess if biological life took a very dilate time  is still a puzzle to Physisists. As an ignorant person of biological science ,all I can say from my own observation,is that it only take nine months for a Human baby to be born.\n\nLife to me is a puzzle, did I come out of nothing ?no.\nDoes anything come out of nothing? yes !if that nothing is something.

Yes it all started with dark matter and energy that were under enormous pressure in a molecule and then the big bang was sparked because of this pressure building up. However what was before this and more importantly why it happened no one will ever know. I prefer to follow the scientific explanation of the origins of the universe as opposed to religious ones because it makes more sense and there is proof.

Big Bang is a theory that tries to explain the formation of the universe, its galaxies, its stars and planets etc.\n\nIt says that the Universe was created by an explosion of a Primeval Atom thus causing it to expand and move away from each other. This was actually based on the Hubble Law which says that Galaxies around us are expanding at speeds directly proportional to their distance from Earth, based on the observation of Edwin Hubble, 1929.\n\nIts a huge topic with lots of technical arguments and counter arguments. Here is the link that will satisfy your quest on Big Bang, atleast for starters...\n\n.:Fishie:.

If you believe the theory of creation, found in all major religions, you don't have a problem answering your own question.  If you subscribe to the 'Big Bang' theory (or a derivitive thereof), I would have to ask 'Who lit the fuse?'
