If the universe is expanding (Big Bang) how could clusters COLLIDE, let alone how could GALAXIES that have been blown apart, collide? Hmmmm...

The expansion of the universe is a large-scale effect; it doesn't affect the local motion of galaxies. Example: Andromeda is 2.2 million LY away from our galaxy, yet the two are moving towards each other.
