[QUOTE="MmatsDude, post: 5471782, member: 586264"] Your reffering to the BB Theory? If so, your wrong because what you really need to understand is that the actual science of the Big Bang theory does not include any bang. The standard cosmological model(that holds evidence), about the history of the universe between a certain point in the past and now. This is established by empirical evidence. It does not, however, deal with the ultimate origin of the universe and is consistent with both a universe of infinite age and a universe of finite age. Most scientists admit that we simply do not know enough about high energy and high temperature physics to adequately describe the state of the universe before a certain point, and yes we're not sure of anything. The way science works is we "theorize" based on a certain amount of evidence and then empirically test these theories in order to "understand" what is around us. So although you are right that we don't fully understand the origins of the universe the Big Bang theory is certainly a step in the right direction and we shouldn't dismiss it out-of-hand because it isn't yet fully understood or doesn't satisfy your need to irrefutably explain the existence of everything. I do accept it. It makes the most sense to me, and most of the evidence seems to point to it. It doesn't explain what came before this universe, only how this universe started. Therefore, the explanation is adequate for its purpose. [/QUOTE]
