“Why would there be ANY need for a cause?”
Oh, only that science has never shown one example of something coming into existence (or doing anything) without a cause.
“And what science contradicts the big bang?”
The Big Bang theory says that the universe should be slowing down due to gravity pulling everything towards the “center” of the universe.
“The big bang is accepted by just about every legitimate researcher out there.”
No, actually there are only a relatively few people who actually work on such things. The rest simply accept what they are told because…they are being told by other scientists. Really. This stuff happens all the time.
“Most other plausible theories are just offshoots that still involve a big goddamn explosion. Even a lot of thoughtful theologians accept it.”
So what? Show me the evidence. I don’t care if every scientist on the planet says one thing. Without scientific evidence, they are all speculating.
