so, it really wasnt until this week that i really got into the big bang theory.
aparently, the universe started out as a hot and dense supermassive ball the size of a pearl. the pearl then exploded around 13.7 billion years ago causing all and any material to fly out in all different directions. the atoms from the big bang then formed after our universe cooled down.
how does something so little make something so big? not to mention, there are so many more galaxies out there (could be millions, or billions) while our solar system is only one. (the milky way.) who knows if there could be other life surviving in another galaxy wondering the same thing we're wondering.
there have been scientists doing experiment after experiment getting evidence and data and have also said that we can still hear "hisses" from satilites from the big bang so many years ago.
basically, what im asking is..do you believe it?

Man, that's so weird to think about, that there might be other life out there wondering if they're the only ones.
But anyway. I don't know what I think. I think any person who believes evolution would also probably believe in this theory as well, but I just don't know. Maybe I don't understand enough about it..
i believe in evolution, but im not sure about the big bang, It's kinda hard to imagine. =l
There's so many questions out there nowadays about earth, our world, our galaxy and what not. I'd actually like to know the answers to some of these questions.
"Is there life on other planents? Galaxies?"

I'd have to say I don't believe it. There just isn't enough evidence to convince me. It's just a theory, maybe a good one, but I don't think it's true.

Man, that was pointless, stupid, unnessecary, worhtless and just utter waste of everything. But it's funny at the same time.
I believe it. But there could be a better idea of how it started.

yeah i think it may be factual in parts but not completely i think maybe it happened over a longer period of time rather than 1 "BIG BANG" maybe there were a few "bangs" that led to the formation on our universe

well, i'm pretty neutral about everything, so my theory is that when the big bang happened, all it did was create the earth along with the tiny organisms that would eventually evolve into humans, plants, animals, etc.
there ya go, big bang and evolution all in one.

cause i believe in both

The origin of universe has been explained by several cosmological theories. One of the more easily accepted and philosophically attractive theories was the Steady-State theory proposed by Herman Bodi, Thomas Gold, and Fred Hoyle in the 1940s. This theory suggested that the universe has always been just about the same as it is now and as it expanded new matter was created to fill in the gaps.
Today the most dominate theory about the creation of the universe is the big bang theory, proposed originally in 1927 by Belgian priest Georges Lemaître. Lemaître proposed the universe was created with the explosion of a primeval atom.
According to the big bang theory, the universe was created approximately anywhere from 15 – 30 billion years ago due to the tremendous explosion of a primitive atom. This explosion created all the mass that is in the universe.
Edwin Hubble explained this theory by observing that the galaxies that are twice as far from us are moving twice as fast and that the universe was expanding in every direction. This observation means that it has taken every galaxy the same amount of time to move from a common starting position to its current position. Since the Big Bang, the universe has been continuously expanding and, thus, there has been more and more distance between clusters of galaxies; a phenomina called the Red Shift.
In 1964, two astronomers, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, in an attempt to detect microwaves from outer space, inadvertently discovered a noise of extraterrestrial origin. The noise did not seem to emanate from one location but instead, it came from all directions at once. It became obvious that what they heard was radiation from the farthest reaches of the universe which had been left over from the Big Bang. This discovery of the radioactive aftermath of the initial explosion lent much credence to the Big Bang theory.
The big bang theory in my eyes some what covers most of what religion teaches us. God created the universe and everything in it. The method he used to go about this was the big bang. Its the only theory that explains how things just came to be all of a sudden and out of no where. I am a creationist and I subsribe to the big bang theory because of its mention in the Holy Qur'an and serveral other referances in religious text. There is no other way to explain something from nothing unless there was a mind behind it.
Other then religion there is too much overwelming evidence to support this.
1) Universe expansion
2) Cosmic Nucleosynthesis. Helium Abundance.
3) Cosmic Background Radiation.
4) Olbers' paradox

me too but what i have been thinking is what if god created adam and eve thru the process of evolution

I actually got in this big debate with someone about this all. But I don't remember it all.
I suppose thats why people believe in God, scientist have only come up with the world started by this big bang but what caused this big bang and so forth, and I suppose thats where people say that God caused the big bang and so on.
I don't know how this could all come about in to a debate, but I don't think theres enough behind it for me to fully believe it yet.

well, from what i collect, it's infinent.
then how's it expanding, you say?
well, take a balloon. now, imagine it blown up a bit.
mark two Xes on it.
now imagine you're a very small ant on the balloon. to you, there are only 2 dimensions to the balloon. the balloon is now being slowly blown up.
every day, you walk from one X, where you life, to the other X, where you work.
and every day it gets longer.
but yet, there are no edges.
yes, it does assume a 5th dimension (assuming time isn teh 4th)

^well you can always say that the big bang was the way the earth was created..
But what caused the big bang
and then every posibilty that they can think that caused it, how did it come about being here.
All of its always going to be filled with questions theres no real facts. Its all opinions

I dont believe in the big bag, nor evolution. Actually, I'm kinda in the middle between evolution and creationism. I believe God created the universe, but not necesarily the way the bible depicts it.

An atom is more than 99% vacuum. Perhaps if vacuum was removed from all atoms, everything would condense to the size of a pearl? Its theoretically possible. Its like how DNA is condensed to a miniscule size, but if it uncoiled itself, it would be seemingly infinitely long.
For the closeminded religious, why is it impossible for God to have been the force that 'detonated' an original atom? There obviously had to be a great deal of sudden energy.
I don't understand why God can't take place in this type of science.

That relates back to god.
In the beginning..

Thats what I would have to go with.
God all the way man!
What I mean is. If God made it happen that way. Then yes. Although we dont know?
So. -_- I dont know.
