Big Bang is a modern day creation mythos. It is full of holes and has huge issues. That doesn't mean religious creationists are correct either. Both are wrong, but at least in science there is a slow process to eventually find the truth. In religion there is no search for truth, as it is already presumed given.

@therick363 - what Big Bang was? It is a theory assuming that the universe is expanding from a very small state. Here is one hole, see if you can plug it: The expansion of the universe is trivial to measure on earth, and it has never been measured Reason given to explain this, is that things are gravitationally bound, and that bond overcomes the expansion of space. However, all matter in the universe is gravitationally bound, and when the universe was smaller, they were much more bound than today. In short: how can matter expand outwards, when gravity overcomes expansion easily?

@Zomgnomnom1 - i know on the Internet you never know who you bump into. And no, expansion of the universe had never been measured. What has been measured is a relationship between galactic redshift and distance. The cause of this redshift is assumed to be due to universe expanding. The expansion itself has never been measured anywhere.

@therick363 yes, so the problem is that today, with very sparse matter, we are not seeing any expansion anywhere there is matter. Only supposedly in the great voids between galaxies are expansion happening. The issue is that if the theory is right, matter would be much tighter packed in the early universe. Hence all matter would just be clumped together, as only really empty space expands. Btw energy has gravity, as mass and energy are the same.
