Did God really create the universe or was the universe created by the Big Bang?

God created Earth and Heaven There are thousands of creation stories and myths and the Christian version falls in the same category. The Bing Bang is the most plausible answer to the creation of the universe but it still has its faults. The electromagnetic activity and "expansion" of universe indicates there had to be a vast explosion, one that humans can not comprehend because the greatest explosion we have seen is that of a nuclear bomb which is not comparable to the scale of what the Big Bang would have been.

The truth is that no one knows but this doesn't mean that we never will and science is at the forefront of finding answers. Creation stories only focus on our immediate solar system and galaxy and of course the universe contains millions of galaxies comparable to ours and may contain life similar to earth's. The Christian creation myth stipulates that the sun was created after the earth and that the sun revolved around the earth and the earth was at the center of the universe and this is certainly not the case Big Bang" Answers God has stated that He created the universe and all there is in it.

Man, rather than believe God's word, has entertained various theories. " A reader will look very hard indeed to find a more deceptive statement. It leads the reader to believe that by theorizing the mechanism of creation we deny or reject God.

That is a patent falsehood. If God created the universe, how did He do it? He didn't bother to elaborate.

We'd like to know. So we try to find out using various means. Science among them.

The question is posed as if, when looking at the two choices, an individual contemplating the origin of the universe has to pick God or Big Bang. There are other possibilities. Perhaps these two are put up because they are arguably the most "popular" and are better known.

Oh, and who said the creation of the universe by God or by Big Bang are mutually exclusive? Could not God have used "natural" means to create the universe by the mechanism of the Big Bang? There is no shred of physical evidence that will contradict that idea.

None whatsoever. Consider the controversy over the behavior of light. It behaves like a particle in some experiments, and behaves like a wave in others.

Both sides had bulletproof (scientific) evidence. The scientific community drew battle lines. It got ugly.

But cooler heads prevailed. Now we know that light exhibits what is called wave-particle duality wherein it exhibits properties of both. It's not a particle or a wave, but rather a "wavicle" in the jargon of some investigators.

The same thinking could apply here. At the risk of being repetitious, let's review. Did God create the universe?

There isn't one piece of physical evidence to support that idea. Is Big Bang theory confirmed by scientific fact? No.It's merely suggested.

(It's a theory. ) Could God have created the universe via the Big Bang? That's another theory.

And no evidence whatsoever can be shown to refute it. Welcome to the Custom Burger Barn where you can have it your way. What would you like, please?

God" Answers It depends if you ask an elder he would tell you that before god even existed there was another god * I suppose the answer depends upon in whom you place your trust. Those who believe in God believe that He has stated that He created the universe and all there is in it. Some further believe that Man, rather than believe God's word, has entertained various theories, none of which have been substantiated to the satisfaction of the Creationist movement.

* All indications would seem to suggest that God may well have used a 'big bang' of sorts to create the universe based on the premise that it all had to have started first from a 'thought' or an 'idea' that could then be put into motion What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun Ecclesiastes 1:9 We are not the first forms of life on this planet and under this sun and we will certainly not be the last. Forget what your precious Apostle Paul tells you, the entire universe was not created just for our pleasure, and when we no longer exist it will keep going for much much longer. * The answer is that god created the universe and there was no other god before god.

God already existed the whole time it seems that god needed to be crated because god created us but god already existed always. * The primary source for the Judeo-Christian belief regarding God creating the universe in a deliberate and systematic series of steps is the Book of Genesis Other" answers I suppose you could ask this question in the bible section of this website, and again in the science section of this website in order to get a well-rounded answer. I'm not suggesting, though, that you should base your faith / lack of faith on that.

If you really want to make a good, informed decision, I suggest you both read the bible and talk to a Christian, and read a book of Atheist apologetics and talk to an Atheist I'd like to point out, not evidence for or against a supreme deity, but a simple mistake a great number of people are making: when a scientist says that evolution is a theory, they mean theory in a scientific sense, not in the colloquial or informal sense. To clarify: There are random ideas Then, there are hypotheses (which may or may not turn out correct), testable ideas that seek to explain how an aspect of the world works After repeated testing and confirmation an hypothesis may become a scientific theory, such as atomic theory or the theory of relativity. Theories are generally described as concepts where empirical proof is simply not possible, but there is no contradictory scientific evidence to challenge their self-consistency Finally, Scientific Laws are principles for which there is no room for doubt.

For example: Gravity, being an empirically provable phenomenon, is sufficiently proved to be considered a Law Both" or other answers It is possible that God created the universe by way of the Big Bang. There is currently no physical way to prove this to be true or not. There is no doubt that the universe is expanding, and if the "film" was "rewound" to the "beginning" of things, then a "Big Bang" is a most probable logical start.

Recall that science is not out to prove God does not exist. It proves what it can, and illuminates other things, like an expanding universe and a possible explanation for how it got to be the way it appears now. * God did not create the universe, the universe was created by means of the big bang and that is final no questions.

God does exist no doubt but he did not create the universe, a small ball of plasma kick - started the universe. Just think what the world would be like without gods to worship, it would be chaotic. * Yes and no.

The human mind is a powerful thing. And some believe our universe is made up of many dimensions and planes of existence. If you follow the path of The Christian faith, Then God created the universe.

Some would say something created God, and something created that, and so on and so on. Or, you could just believe that the Big Bang did it.In this belief, with all of the multiple planes of existence, every thing is true, and at the same time false.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
