The '''Big Bang theory''' is a currently popular speculative scientific theory accounting for the acceleration of matter throughout the Universe.  Big bang theories are actually a ''class'' of scientific models that describe the Universe as expanding from a very hot, dense state approximately 13.7 billion years ago<ref>[http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/m_uni/uni_101age.html WMAP Cosmology 101: Age of the Universe]</ref> (although this number has changed several times throughout recent history). It was first proposed by [[Georges-Henri Lemaitre]] and evidence for the expansion was observed by [[Edwin Hubble]]<ref>Hubble, E. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Volume 15, Issue 3, pp. 168-173.</ref>. Later [[George Gamow]] predicted that the Big Bang would leave an observable [[cosmic microwave background|microwave background radiation (or CMBR)]]. This radiation was subsequently discovered by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson at [[Bell Labs]] and found to be close to that predicted by Gamow (Gamow predicted a background radiation level equivalent to a roughly 3&nbsp;K black body object, and the observed level is that of a 2.725&nbsp;K body).

The '''Big Bang theory''' is a speculative scientific theory which [[atheists]] use to account  for the acceleration of matter throughout the Universe, as part of their effort to deny [[IGod's]] role in creating all of existence.  Christian physicists, such as Dr. John Hartnett,<ref>http://creation.com/starlight-and-time-a-further-breakthrough</ref> have noted that the Big Bang theory was constructed to account for serious pitfalls to the [[theory of evolution]], particularly the needed timescale of billions of years, amply contradicted by terrestrial and astronomical evidence.  Thus the big bang is trotted out by [[atheist]] evolutionists to silence [[creationist]] opponents, even though the theory is based on enormous amounts of guesswork, speculation, and pure assumptions.

The term "Big Bang" implies an explosion of matter into pre-existing space, but the theory actually indicates that space is dynamic and more space is constantly created in the interstices between particles as the density of the universe falls.  In other words, the Big Bang describes the expansion of space and time.  Big Bang theorists state that the Hubble [[redshift]] is a consequence of this stretching of the fabric of space.

Conventional wisdom is that the acceleration is caused by some sort of [[dark energy]], which has not yet been directly observed.

Scientists refer to the theorized exact moment the Big Bang supposedly began as t=0 ("t" standing for "time"). At this time, according to their theory all of the matter in the universe - in fact, the universe itself - was contained within a single point (a single point in mathematics is infinitesimally small). A burst of energy known as the Big Bang is claimed to have issued forth, and the universe began. {{Vague}}  <ref>http://www.umich.edu/~gs265/bigbang.htm</ref> 1.0×10^-43 seconds later, the force of gravity separated from the other forces. <ref>http://www.ccsf.edu/Departments/History_of_Time_and_Life/content/BigBang.htm</ref>

He also talks further about the many theories that have been proposed to counter the Big Bang Theory due to it concluding there is a beginning or origin of creation.  These additional theories have been broken down to still revert to a beginning.  This in essence tries to proves a divine power or creator which frustrates the many scientists that are trying to prove that God does not exist including well known physicist Steven Hawking. <ref>Steven Hawking, ''A Brief History of Time.''</ref> The current evidence points overwhelmingly towards this theory being correct, though the means this took place are still unknown.

It should be noted though that if the Big Bang happened then due to relativistic time dilation, it would not matter if the universe was created in 13.7 billion years old or 6 days as depending on ones reference frame it could have been created in both 13.7 billion years and 6 days due to time warpage.  Dr. Gerald Schroeder, an Israeli astrophysicist has put forwards models to this effect. In them he demonstrates that if the age of the universe according to evolutionists is divided by the big bang expansion factor that the resulting time is almost exactly 6 days.  <ref> http://www.holycrossmonastery.org/articles/science/universe.htm </ref> Intriguingly he also calculates that due to the rate at which the expansion was said to have slowed according to the big bang theory each significant eras according to the time scale of evolutionists correspond to six individual twenty-four hour days corresponding to the days of creation. Despite these numbers appearing in an astonishingly coincidental fashion from known figures put forward by secular science, atheistic scientists do not comment on the coincidence.
