--- No matter how they try, no one can explain 4 dimensions in a way that I can understand. The loaf of bread metaphor doesn't cut it (har har).---

Which 4 dimensions? 4 dimensions of space, or 4 dimensions of: 3 dimensions of space plus 1 dimension of time.

No matter how you slice it, you can't get more than THREE (3) spatial dimensions!!! You can use many "dimensions" in a vector to "represent" something in reality but that's all it is: just a representation and NOT reality.

When it comes to Big Bang, I am a non-believer.
