The Biblical Big Bang

[shunyadragon]

Well, interesting, we'll see! But I think the consensus view is still the Big Bang.

No, you are assuming an absolute beginning from nothing of a Big Bang and very very few scientists, maybe no reputable sscientist support this religious notion.

[shunyadragon]

The consensus view is still the Big Bang, but the cyclic models (of which there are many) are compatible with the Big Bang.

All those that believe in a Big Bang do not believe our universe had an absolute beginning.

Yes, that was my intended point.

Much of the initial opposition to the Big Bang theory from some scientists was that it too closely resembled what is written in Genesis.

Can you cite any examples of such opposition?

. . . and refer it as citing that it is in opposition, because 'it too closely resembled what is written in Genesis.'

Yes, exactly - that is what I meant, if I wasn't clear.

I just wanted remove any 'wiggle room.'
