Part 9
A spectacular exposition featuring heavyweights in astronomy, mathematics, plasma physics, cosmology etc. including Halton Arp, Tony Peratt, Eric Lerner, Fred Hoyle and a number of others, and yet comprehensible to the educated layman. The "big bang" which we've heard about all our lives turns out to be junk physics.

The Big Bang Never Happened That's simply not true. I watch it every Thursday night at 8.

Sounds like you ought to be on my little ping list...
The thing which is really ridiculous is that a certain number of Christians apparently including at least one pope, no sooner hear about the "big bang" idea then they think to themselves "Gee, that's GREAT! Another creation story, just a little matter of about (17,000,000,000 - 6000) years difference from ours, we ought to be able to come up with some sort of a fudge factor!!"
The problem: Having all the mass of the universe collapsed to a point would be the mother of all black holes; nothing would ever bang its way out of that.
Likewise for a supposedly omniscient and omnipotent God to suddenly figure out it would be a cool thing to do to create a universe (6000 years ago or 17,000,000,000, doesn't matter) while the idea had never occurred to him previously, is basically idiotic. Big Bang is bad physics and bad theology rolled up into a package.
What the evidence seems to suggest is that the universe is basically eternal, like God, and that the creation stories we read in ancient literature refer to the creation of our own system and local environment, and not to the entire universe. Our LIVING world, at least in its present conformation, does in fact appear to be ballpark for some sort of a 6000 - 10000 year age; the planet viewed as a collection of rocks is older than that.

I strongly recommend Eric Lerner's
The Big Bang Never Happened. It's written on a
Scientific American level (but decidedly not from their usual perspective!) so I would imagine that most who are interested in this topic wouldn't have difficulty understanding it. Check the reviews at Amazon to see if this book is for you.

If matter can not create itself into existence,and we know that it can't, then those who do not believe in a creator would like to deny the Big Bang. To me these idiots are as bad as the Holocaust deniers. The proof is there for both.

Perhaps. What exactly is your ping list about? And is it a high or low volume ping list?
To: wendy1946
Interesting theory, and intriguing as well.
There are a couple of problems, such as the impossibility of a concrete but infinite number of “moments” prior to now,
and the problem of “fitting” Gen 1:16 (” He also made the stars.”) into the theory.
But it was an intriguing thought nonetheless.

The problem is that people do not know their history!
The big bang theory was proposed by a priest.

The Law of Conservation of Energy might be worth skimming over. Slightly poetic that a single fermoin can be created from two photons. Matter from light? In a beginning moment of the cosmos as we know it? Sounds like something I've heard before...

Low volumn, mostly about evolution, Intelligent Design and the like.
