The Big Bang: Misinterpreting The Theory Of Our Universe
Many people either don’t know what the Big Bang is or misinterpret it greatly. To summarize it, the Big Bang is not the theory of how our Universe was “created” it is the theory of how it expanded or “inflated” into what our Universe looks like today. The theory explains that our Universe was once a singularity (which is located in the center of a black hole) that “sprang” into existence about 13.7 billion years ago. After this extremely hot, extremely small, and extremely dense Universe appeared without reasoning it then inflated and cooled into the Universe we know today (“Big Bang Theory”). Well, the theory is very cleverly put together but some may wonder if there is even any proof to back this theory up, there are actually many laws

    In one episode of the TV series The Big Bang Theory, someone ruins the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark by pointing out that the character of Dr. Indiana Jones is irrelevant to the actual story. In a similar vein, some historians make the argument that Abraham Lincoln is not critical to the Civil War and its outcome: the war happens anyway, even if Lincoln had never been born, and the North still would have won if someone other than Lincoln becomes president in 1860. That is considered to be double edge statement that I ever heard one. There are those would say that the sixteenth president of the United states that Abraham Lincoln was considered to those has a person who wished to unite his country for his American citizens and slaves during this…

    Stephen Hawking, one of the World’s leading scientists, released a new book in 2010 called, ‘The Grand Design.’ He and his co-author, Leonard Mlodinow, stated that, ‘you don’t need God to create the universe because the laws of gravity and a certain version of quantum physics suffice to make it inevitable that the universe will create itself, out of nothing, in an infinite variety of forms; and given an infinite variety of forms, a segment or sub-universe friendly to mankind is bound to develop, no design needed, grand or not.’ He also later on in the book writes that, ‘spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.’ Both of these quotes are strong evidence that the universe is an accidental one, and there is no such thing as a creator or a created universe.…

    There was a passage where the authors used a boiling kettle as an analogy to the universe. The authors reasoned that there were two explanations to the question, “Why is the kettle boiling?” One being a scientific explanation, another being a personal explanation. The authors then concluded that the same applied to the universe. Since nothing came before the first state of the universe, no scientific explanation is possible because no set laws were in place to explain…

    Moreover, when comparing different theories as the Big Bang with the creation of the earth stories from the different Native American tribes, many similarities and differences come to surface. Most of the Native American stories are based upon the believe of a higher power or a spiritual creator which originally created the world people live in. “Long, long ago, the Creator, the Great Chief Above, made the world. Then he made the animals and the birds and gave them their names.” Even though the Natives are spread out into different tribes, they all have different forms of some sort of a spiritual or magical creator, which developed the earth. The Big Bang Theory, unlike all the native American spiritual stories, is based on a proved hypothesis with concrete information and many explanations, which makes this story or theory an exact fact. “Scientists have discovered what Albert Einstein predicted…

    When we look into outer-space today we see billions upon billions of stars the cover the “universe”, but what may have crossed your mind is how did they get there? Well before, these stars were there it was said that the universe was a very hot, small, and dense with no stars, atoms, forms “singularity”. The way that the universe became what we see today is what scientist calls “The Big Bang Theory” not to get confused with the show. Scientist base the Big Bang theory on many different factors/observations. The most important is the “redshift” of very far away galaxies. Redshift is the doppler reaction that occurs in light. When an object moves away from earth, it looks reddish because the movement stretches the wavelength. The reddish color occurs because; red is the lowest wavelength on the visible. The more redshift there is, the faster the object is moving away. By measuring the redshift, scientists proved that the universe is expanding and can even work out how fast the object is moving. Basically, what happened is that “space” became expanding very quickly about fourteen billion years ago, and which resulted in the formation of atoms, which eventually led to the creation of stars and galaxies. Space as we know it was created, and is still expanding at a very rapid rate while becoming much cooler.…

    This fact may present a challange for modern sceince because this is not a scientific theory as it cannot be experimentally verified or falsified. Once we move into metaphysics the naturalistic assumption of science must be done away with as it is no longer either justifiable or useful. Indeed it is a metaphysical statement itself--as it lies behind science, it cannot be examined scientifically.…

    The curiosity humans have in our origin and worth has led to a remarkable search for answers to big questions about history starting from the very beginning. Big history cosmology looks to answer some of the biggest questions humans have about the universe. In this paper, big history will be explored through the formation of the current U.S. one cent coin or more commonly referred to as a penny. The big bang theory is a scientific origin story, based on real evidence which explores history in thresholds from the big bang to present. Thresholds are time periods that break up history into sections and each one is marked by significant pivotal events and emerging properties. Each threshold is connected to the last and accumulated ingredients led…
