Big Bang Undermines The Story Of Creation

244 Words1 Page

For people who truly believe that the universe was created by God, the heart of the issue comes down to whether the Big Bang disproves and undermines the story of creation depicted in the bible or supports and validates it. Throughout the whole duration of making this paper, I have read and researched some important ideas that would prove that instead of debunking and undermining the theory of Creationism, the Big Bang in fact does the opposite. It therefore gives strong evidences and strengthens the notions suggested by the Bible. First of all, the Big Bang provides a scientific confirmation and evidence that the universe has a beginning. Secondly, it validates the Bible’s concept of a finite universe. In the Bible, the event of creation indicates the start of time and its movement in a linear fashion, and the existence of matter and energy. The Big Bang theory holds the same idea wherein at the start of it, before the event happened and the universe still existed as a singularity, an infinite compression held all matter, time, and energy which was released when the Big Bang occurred. …show more content…

Thirdly, both the Bible and the Big Bang theory assume that the universe has been expanding and stretching out since the start of its creation, as mentioned in different chapters and verses in the Bible such as the one mentioned in Isaiah 42:5 and as supported by the Edwin Hubble’s red shift theory in the Big

    Falk seems to be oblivious of the assumptions used in debates on origins, and of the difference between data and understandings of data. No one has a way to go back in time and study our history, so all ideas must be based upon assumptions. Those assumptions are the foundation of our worldview, which is our central belief about where the world came from and how it became what it is today. The Bible has many verses about the timing of creation and God’s hand in it. God spoke the Universe, heavens, Earth, life, and man into existence (Genesis 1; Psalm 33:6, 9; 148:5; John 1:1-3).

In the “causal argument,” or the First Cause Argument on the cosmological argument, “something” outside of the universe that is supposed to inform us about the existence of the universe is argued to be explained as God. As the first cause argument goes into depth and with the help of Thomas Aquinas, it is easy to see how God is responsible for explaining the existence of the universe around us. Within the first cause argument on the cosmological argument the following premises and conclusions are discussed: Premise 1: There exists things that are caused. Meaning that

  • The Role Of Creation In Hesiod's Theogony

    Hesiod’s account of creation, as outlined in the Theogony offers one of the most detailed and accepted theories of creation in the Greek culture. On the other hand, the Biblical account of creation, regarded as a Hebrew culture creation account, is to date one of the most widely acknowledged and accepted versions across various cultures seeking explanations for the origin of life and the earth. However, even though these creation accounts originate from two different cultures, they share some thought-provoking parallels in terms of their content and intentions, as well as some contrasts that make each of the creation accounts unique. Both Hesiod’s and the biblical creation accounts are similar in that they argue that prior to the beginning of creation events, the earth was merely a void that had no shape or form and this void was filled with darkness.

    The Biblical standpoint states that God created the universe from complete darkness. Now when comparing it to scientific theory, the Big Bang also started from in an abyss of nothingness and resulted in the creation of the cosmos. In essence, utilizing both of these scenarios, one can say that the Big Bang and the God’s creation of the cosmos are the same events. Now, while religion keeps it at that, by using science, they can delve deeper into this phenomena in order to see how the universe came to be. Not only will this answer the question of how we came to be, but what caused this event to happen.

Those three observations are: the expansion of the universe as measured by the redshift of light released from galaxies, the presence of the cosmic background radiation and, the comparative amounts of hydrogen, helium, and deuterium in the universe. The vast majority of astronomers believe that the Universe started with the Big Bang around 14 billion years ago. Before the Big Bang, it is theorised that the whole Universe was inside a ‘bubble’ that was hundreds of times smaller than a pinhead.
