"The Big Bang theory cannot seriously be questioned, due to the enormous volume of evidence"Cite ONE non self-referential piece of evidence.
1. The microwave background.
2. The red-shifting of distant galaxies.
3. The evolved appearance of distant galaxy clusters.
4. The delayed light curve of distant supernovae.
5. The proportion of hydrogen, helium, and lithium in the universe almost exactly matching mathematical models of nucleosynthesis in a hot, dense early universe.
6. The increasing detected temperature of the microwave background with distance.
This points to a universe that is cooling and expanding. And if it is expanding, it must have had a beginning. For someone with a religious background, neither do I see how this conflicts with the Bible. If someone has an alternative explanations for the points I’ve given, I’d like to hear them.
