Does the bible mention the Big-Bang anywhere?

The Bible doesn't mention a lot of stuff that is real, because it spends a lot of time mentioning things that are not.

Under the current Big Bang model the center of the universe is nowhere.  Ok. You don't like that, then how about the center of the universe is everywhere.\n\nThe Big Bang was not an explosion, the term "big bang" came from early opponents of the theory.  Basically it was the creation of space itself.  Subsequently that space has expanded, it is not expanding from somehwhere, it is expanding from everywhere.

I always find it interesting how people assume that science and religion are irreconcilable.  It is possible to believe in both and it is possible that God does exist and that the big bang theory is what created the earth.  Many creationists approach the creation theory from a fundamentalist perspective.  The Bible is full of metaphors and figurative language.  It is not necessarily meant to be taken literally.  Perhaps God provided the catalyst for the big bang making both creationism and science accurate.  Just a theory.

In physical cosmology, the Big Bang is the scientific theory that the universe emerged from a tremendously dense and hot state about 13.7 billion years ago

Big Bang is a proven fact... nothing remains unsolved!\n\nBig Bang is that event in the history of the whole cosmos that without the big bang... the existence of the present cosmos would never have been possible.\n\nA cosmos without a Cosmos... it is only for an umpteenth moment of a second... the time between the dissolution of the Cosmos (called Pralaya in Hinduism) and the start of a fresh Cosmos with the big bang that there exists nothing but an absolute blank.\n\nI get a lot of queries as to why the Cosmos was created by Almighty God in the first place. What was the need to do that? If we define God then the things would become pretty clear.\n\n\nWhat is the Definition God? The sum total of all purified Souls Atmans in the whole of Cosmos at a given moment of time is what we know as Almighty God. These purified souls... the size of half a thumb as defined in the sacred Bhagvad Gita (the doctrine put forward by Lord Krishna at the time of Mahabharata, the war of dharma) unable to contain themselves explode with the big bang.\n\nThis conceptualizes the start of the Cosmos with a big bang. The explosion (the big bang itself) is so massive that all Souls Atmans spread out with unbelievable speeds in all directions. In the process on their way they collect impurities.\n\n\nAs the prime property of any soul atman is to remain in pure pristine form... it again starts on its journey of purification. This leads to the journey by a soul atman through a chain of manifestations (a total of 8.4 million manifestations in total)... the beginning of a cosmic life cycle. A total earthly journey of about 96.4 million years... a long journey indeed!\n\nThe sooner the big bang occurs... starts the journey of every soul atman to come back to its pristine pure form. As any planet like Mother Earth is found conducive for germination of any form of life... the Souls Atmans have their day.\n\nTo purify them... every soul atman needs a body to work out its karma. And what is karma? As defined in the Hindu sacred Scriptures and the Bhagvad Gita, karma is the process by which every soul atman is able to cleanse itself of the impurities contained within.\n\n\nSimilarly as the metal within an ore cannot separate itself on its own and requires the requisite mining machinery and the process... likewise every soul atman on its cosmic journey requires a body to work out its karma (i.e. remove the dross from within).\n\nThis is how the need for creating a Cosmos arises. The big bang is not a controlled feature. It happens on its own. The moment the dissolution of the Cosmos occurs (called Pralaya in Hinduism)... the combined power of all the souls (the size of half a thumb) unable to control it explodes with a big bang... the start of a new journey... a new Cosmos!\n\nWhatever logistics the various group of scientists put forward as to how the Cosmos was created... some accept and some do not accept the theory of the big bang... the facts and the truth remains the same. It is only through the process of the big bang and only the big bang that formation of any new Cosmos takes place.\n\n\nReduced to the basic building block of the whole Cosmos... the whole world nay the whole Cosmos is but a cluster of atoms and molecules. It is pure energy all around surrounded by ether... the black and the empty portion of the Cosmos.\n\nBhagvad Gita explains in minute details the complete formation of the Cosmos from the beginning to the end. Nothing is hidden... it is only when things are perceived from the angle of absolute faith... the inner meaning of the concepts explained in Bhagvad Gita become clear.\n\nBhagavad Gita is beyond the capture of the senses and the mind. The prime reason why majority of the scientists around the world have failed to learn of the wisdom contained in the Bhagvad Gita. It is not purely logistics but also the element of faith which is essential for learning what Bhagvad Gita has to impart to the humanity.\n\n\nOne single document Bhagavad

You can, this a false dicotomy that is wreaking havok on our nation and it's views of religion and science.  there is nothing to suggest that God did not use the laws of physics that he created and science later discovered to creat the universe and world we live in now.  This means God used the Big bang to make the universe, and used evolution (through devine intervention) to make life on earth, even humanity.\n    The creation story put forth in Genesis is not meant to be taken literally and anyone who does so is ignorant, and does the cause of Christianity more harm than good.  It seems likely that this story of creation is a myth ment to teach the primitive Hebrews who first recieved it, the proper relationship between Man and his God.  Remember, these people knew nothing of science so a creation story going on about expanding space-time and gene flow would mean nothing to them.\n   In fact, while science is a wonderful example of God's power and glory, the creation story is really one of the most insignificant things in the bible.  What is important is the message of love conveyed by Jesus, to 'Love your fellow human as yourself."  As long as you do this and devolop your personal relationship with God, you are doing God's will.  That is what Christianiy is about, not makeing people believe the world was created in 7 days.

my religion is Bible-based, so that is the text that i will be focusing on.\n\nover the years archaeologists have used the Bible to find people, places, kings, kingdoms, and even entire civilizations that were previously thought to not exist.  they were in the Bible, but no one found them until they used the Bible to find them. \n\nthe Bible puts on a timeline a cataclysmic flood about 4500 years ago where everything was destroyed from the face of the earth.  the oldest tree discoevered dates to about 4500 years ago.  coincidence?  read on...\n\nin the late 1990's, the earths population topped 6 billion.  in 1810, it was just over 1 billion.  following the curve that these numbers give us, the human population was at it's beginning about 4500 years ago (where the Bible has 8 living people)\n\nthe first greek translation of the new testament was written 250 years BC (before christ).  it has in it over 300 prophesies pertaining to the life of the messiah; all of which were fullfilled by Jesus.  the odds of this all happening as written are monumental. \n\nGod proved that He surpasses time and space with the prophesies, that He created time and space with the intricacy of His creation, and that He loves time and space with the sacrifice He paid.  maybe the Bible was penned by men, but each and every word written was via divine inspiration from God Himself.  no man could accomplish that.  religion was created by man, as the simple definition of "religion" is "man's quest for God"; however i believe in a different school of thought, and that is one of "God desiring a relationship with His creation; specifically man."  it isn't about being religious, it's about having a relationship with God.

Where does it mention dinosaurs in the Bible?

Old Goat is correct. It would help to know specifics. But consider just ONE example. The book of Job is the oldest book in the Bible. It even predates Moses. So, in that period of time, how did other cultures view the earth? Flat, supported by Atlas or giant elephants... But look what it reads in the book of Job... "God hangs the earth on nothing." And in Isaiah it reads, "It is God who sits above the circle of the earth." That word "circle" in Hebrew is ball or sphere. So if people poopoo the Bible with their lofty scientific thinking, they have probably not even read the Bible to check. I know scientists who have read the Bible, and are amazed at how accurate it is.\n\nWe know that all matter is made up of atoms and electrons. I nor any scientist has ever seen an electron. But because of scientific study, we know they exist. The Bible reads in Hebrews 11:3...\n\n"Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."\n\nSo the only conflict comes when secular scientist blow off the Bible without cause. I have many other examples.

The entire bible?  No.  In fact, there is proof that parts of the bible are inaccurate (like Genesis), and there is proof that parts of the bible really happened (we know many hisotrical leaders and occurances actually happened).\n\n- We've found Herod's palace, and it implies he was as carefree as the bible portrays him as.  One point for bible\n\n- We've found egyptian records that range from acheivements to embarassments.  They were quite meticulous at their historical records...yet no mention of Moses, losing their slaves, losing their first borns, plagues, etc.  One point against.\n\n- We've found evidence of a mass flood, one point for\n\n- It would be impossible for all species alive today to fit on the boat, not to mention carry enough food, deal with waste, etc.  One point against.\n\nSo you see, the bible is much like Greek or Egyptian mythology.  It is what was thought to have been known at the time...some of it was correct, some based on false rumor.

This universe is an event that occurs once and does not occur again.\n  Its existence or nonexistence has no relevance to anything but itself.\n   The big bang will not occur again!

Who knows? Don't you think that speculating about the beginning of the universe is far reaching enough, you want scientists to posit ideas which predate that for which there would be zero testable merit to? Maybe there are other 'universes' outside ours some quadrillion light years away popping off big bangs all the time. Maybe before the big bang there was a big collapse where all this matter and energy fell together into a ginourmous abyss-hole. Who knows how many orders of existence could be identified beside what is within our range to observe.\n\nI mean trying to see the forest through the trees is one thing, but trying to see the sattellite image through a microscope is just ridiculous.

Science is based on finding physical evidence in the universe, not on idle speculation.\n\nSince the results of the Big Bang are strewn across the sky, it is possible for science to use what we see to deduce what the universe was like at the time of the Big Bang.  However, due to the violent forces involved at that time, finding physical evidence of what reality was like BEFORE then is extremely difficult.  No one has yet devised a way to do it.\n\nThat means any ideas about what it was like before the Big Bang (including whether "God did it" or not) are idle speculation and not science.  As such, they should be taken back to the religion forum.

It is not known what came before Big Bang, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't have anything to do with a supernatural being. Big Bang and God cannot harmonize, to attempt such would require the bible to be false. Stand up for what you believe in, or discard it is an ancient fad, for crying out loud!

The second answer above is dead wrong. Well, not all of it ; )\n\nThe big bang DID create sound, although they are termed "acoustic oscillations" but they work just like sound does, with overpressure and underpressure but just on a larger scale. The "sound" of the big bang also had harmonics, just like any other sound does.\n\nThe big bang itself was likely an inflation of a high energy vacuum state and subsequent decay. That is why it is possible that it did not require any matter or energy to begin with, just virtual energy. We see this virtual energy in vacuums all the time, because our universe' vacuum state is non-zero.\n\nSo in short, the idea is that energy and matter decayed out of a vacuum state, and the acoustic oscillations, complete with harmonics, is visible in the CMB, so there was sound. How about that?

um     you can wonder a lot of crazy things about the universe when one takes the big bang into consideration...\nsay, one might imagine that all the matter that is us and our cosmos, was once one tiny particle- could it remain entangled?

Repeat after me:\n\n"There is no explosion in the Big Bang theory, only expansion."\n\nThe name "Big Bang" was actually originated by opponents of the theory, and unfortunate name as the theory involves no "bang" at all.
