This is all well and good, but I wonder what he thinks about membrane theory (which attempts, using 11-dimensional mathematics, to explain what happened before this singularity -- essentially promoting the idea of multiple universes sharing multidimensional space).

This is all well and good, but if you REALLY want to see evidence for the existence of God, check out the Mandelbrot Set.

idea of multiple universes sharing multidimensional space

That would explain those mornings when I wake up in a whole different world.

.....unless the Universe is closed-collapsed....in which case the Big Bang may have been one of an infinite number.

Although, I tend to believe in a Prime Mover, of some sort.

I think one could sufficiently write up a convincing dissertation (or thesis) proving that God withholds certain elements of “common sense” from those in the upper echelon of science (such as the above)..and grants it to the poor.

“Every single Big Bang model shows the existence of what scientists call a ‘singularity,’ ... The priest physicist then proceeded to explain the different, complex versions of the various Bing Bang theories.

The Big Bang Never Happened.

Think about this, all you atheists reading this post.

If I am wrong about G-d, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and His Son, Jesus the Christ, what do I lose?

But, if I'm right...

Don’t know if this is appropriate to ping your lists or not, but consider yourselves pinged...

A singularity does not necessarily imply that there is a God.

What the singularity does imply is a nexus to another dimension of space time.

Whether “God” is there or not, can only be proven by accessing that gateway ( which some say we do upon death.)

This is an interesting aspect of science, but a singulariity to another dimension could just as easily connect to hell as well as heaven, so we have to be very careful about what we assume.

We know little about singularities. In fact some scientists believe that micro-singularities might temporarily exist throughout our own universe and even on the Earth itself.

What is there about these theologian/pseudo-scientist that compels them to ignore faith in explaining the supernatural? They think nothing of treading in areas where they are clearly unqualified. Not that cosmology is “settled science”. It’s just that there are real scientists that are far more qualified than the folks trying to wear two hats at the same time.

A very interesting topic. Alas, I would much rather have a transcript of the talk, than this rather poorly-written summary of it....
