Yes... The consensus model described by National Geographic in this video explicitly states that matter, space, time, and energy were created by the Big Bang.

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Again most scientists do acknowledge that matter, energy, space, and time were created by the Big Bang, as both National Geographic (hardly a bastion of religious fervor) videos explicitly state. To address your point, the physical laws of our universe, including the laws of physics, were also crea...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

You are simply wrong on this one... And a lot of your misconceptions surround this particular issue. So I think it would be beneficial to clarify this specific point. Let me post links to two videos from National Geographic that confirm what science says about the Big Bang theory. There are many ma...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

under Inflation and baryogenesis and then the remainder of the timeline section refers to offsets from 0 for a number of events. Under “Inflation and baryogenesis” 0 is the point when the singularity begins to expand, not when energy and matter was originated. To suggest energy and matter was creat...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

That is also a factually accurate statement But none of those factually accurate statements do anything to rebut the fact that... the Big Bang theory DOES describe WHEN energy, time, and space were caused. In fact there is a timeline section beginning at time = 0 in the Big Bang article you referen...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Under Misconceptions, it says "the Big Bang model does not describe how energy, time, and space were caused" which is an accurate statement However, the Big Bang theory does describe WHEN energy, time, and space were caused. Here is what it says: One of the common misconceptions about the...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Sure it does... At or after time = 0. For example.. from your wikipedia article "Inflation stopped at around the 10−33 to 10−32 seconds mark, with the universe's volume having increased by a factor of at least 1078. Reheating occurred until the universe obtained the temperatures required for t...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

As you point out scientists do not know HOW the universe began, but the Bing Bang theory does indicate WHEN the universe began. So, do you agree or disagree with the following statements about the Big Bang theory? The Big Bang theory describes WHEN the matter and energy in our universe began The Bi...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

I don't follow you... The Universe we exist in is the "Universe we know". You correctly state that the "Universe we know" began to exist around 14 billion years ago. So whatever caused the Universe that we live in to "begin to exist" operates outside the confines of th...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

That response is probably a retort of the claim that everything requires a source. If a source is not required of God, it isn’t much of a leap for someone to assume it isn’t required for the Universe. Some thoughts... A source is required for the universe because science tells us that our space/tim...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Kenny: If a source is not required of God, it isn’t much of a leap for someone to assume it isn’t required for the Universe. Let's put aside, for the moment, the question of God. But anything that exists that had no source MUST be eternal, right? I mean, it's either one or the other, correct? I agr...
