because the way that certain particles move (and the movement of galaxies) seem to indicate that they are slowly moving away from a certain point, indicating that there was a starting point

it also seems like a more likely explanation that "god created the universe" to me

🤪

i'm not saying that it's 100% true

it's a theory

Let me ask you a simple question

it just seems more likely

and there are other theories and stuff

How can matter be created if it can't be created or destroyed to even start a singularly which started the big bang?

Uhhh well Fred, what you’re referring to is a law

sorry?

yeah

About the movement of galaxies away

ah

right

Theories describe why, laws describe what

yeah

Anyway, conservation of mass is a shorthand

Matter is both created and destroyed all the time

i wasn't talking about the movement of galaxies as a theory though

Ah okay

I believe in God AND the Big Bang. 😮

You'd have to say that the law of conservation with mass and energy is wrong then dude

firstly, the question of where the thing that started the universe came from (a bit crude, but you know what i mean) is one that will always exist

*you can believe in both*

they're not mutually exclusive

Doesn't mean that either is true

i asked why people believe in god

in the christian sense

and to an extent, all organised religion

and there are christians who believe in the big bang

so this topic is pretty pointless

Dumb Christians

florida

rule 18

so why do you believe in god then

I believe in God from a creation standpoint. *Something* suddenly converted an *unfathomable* amount of energy into mass.

fair enough

The bible says no

You can't believe in the big bang and God
