Re-titled, New Views, Big Bang Theory, Nobel Prize

when i first saw the title of this thread, i thought the TV show Big Bang Theory has been canceled. u scared me dude. i love that show.

HAHA! That's exactly what I thought, too, and I've never even watched 5 minutes of that show :D

I can go in to why your understanding of the big bang theory is wrong but I am going to speak on your "choices".

Creationism stays the same because there was no research in the formation of the creationism hypothesis. There is no evidence to support creationism and there are no tests that can be done to verify creationism. Essentially, creationism is not science and that is why it doesn't change and never will change.

On "choices", there are hundreds of "choices". You can say that any of the creation myths can be chosen. From the Christian creation myth, to Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Jain so on and so forth. Just because you choose to believe something doesn't make it truth. Without evidence all you have is "belief". With evidence, I have an understanding of the fundamental theories that explain the world around me.

On change; change is a good thing. I don't know why creationists make it seem like a bad thing. When new evidence is presented, a hypothesis must change to support the evidence. For example, people thought the earth was the center of the universe. The evidence was because we could see everything moving around us as if we were stationary. With the advent of modern technology, including telescopes, evidence arose that shown we were not the center of the universe; in fact, far from it. Ergo, the theory changed because new evidence was presented, tested and publicly verified. What evidence does "creationism" have that can be presented, tested and publicly verified?

Their ain't none on either side of the argument. Whichever side you choose, you do so based on faith, not fact.

That is, by far, the most ignorant statement I have heard in my life.

I can quote one bit of evidence for the big bang theory and that is more than creationism will ever have. Here is just one, cosmic microwave background radiation.

I don't know why people find the truth so hard to believe that aliens planted us here like seeds so they could watch us from space like a messed up sitcom or something. We must be the laughing stock of the entire universe with some of the stupidity that has occurred on this planet.

(Pokes the tiger in the eye with a stick slowly backs away turns and runs full speed like the cops are chasing him.)

Here's another Tiger poke: I believe God created everything and all discoveries made/will be made will ultimately point to that and be seen and accepted as such by all, eventually.

Well, I see that someone went to church today and I wonder what the sermon was about? :)

This thread should be entitled "I want to start another debate on religion...who's in!" :)

This is not a forum on religion. I really, really, really, really do NOT want religious debates here. They never go well.

Same here man. I said to myself… no… no… no… Whew!
Now that I know it wasn’t about the show, get on with your debates I have no interests in it(rather lost interest it in a long long time ago).

I always wanted to be an Astrophysicists, but I never saw a help wanted ad for one so I never persude it. Is anybody hiring Astrophysicists, were do you work what is the starting pay? It has to be one of the coolest jobs ever. I mean really what is the worst thing that can happen on a bad day working as an Astrophysicists?

I like the subject matter and read in that area quite often but the worst thing that could happen on a bad day would be to get a bad headache :)

Dude, have you seen the size of the telescopes these guys handle? Imagine dropping one of those on your toes. Also, they are mounting FRIGGIN' LASERS on them! Never underestimate the danger of a telescope falling on your toes while it shoots you in the eyes with a laser beam.

Point taken that could really suck trying to drive home from work blind in one eye with a broken foot and those telescopes are usually out in the middle of nowhere so you probably have a long drive to get there.

BIG BANG IS BIG POOP !!! its a lame attempt by infinitely small minded people that have no concept of how something so great is well beyond the limits of their knowledge !

yes evidence its expanding blah blah , therfore big boom makes sense. chicken or the egg ? my advice for scientists - work on propulsion systems and deep fry the $!!$$!@% CHICKEN !

How elegant!

lol very

"MMMMGAAAWDD !!" ...

have they figured out if coffee is good for you or bad this week. I think i am going to tell the boss i am studying dark energy this week lol

people forget creationism if you cant fathom it , just realize we couldnt even get a plane in the air a hundred years ago. so at best its a work in progress and most likely as correct as the world being flat

no need to get upset everyone has a opinion ...

that would be indeed very sad, love it too

Could never really comprehend the concept of "infinity"... The thought of traveling with no end ...

God loves you all...
