The Christian creation story has been documentarily proven wrong at numerous points. Furthermore, currently, the best model we can fabricate based on evidence, is the big bang model, and the singularity theory. The bible is not based on evidence, it is a story that was created to reflect what the people of a long-dead nation thought to be true. Not reflective of a universal being. Game over.

Who ever said we had to take it word for word maybe it has a further meaning, and the bible isn't a history book even Christians know that.

It doesn't matter if you know who he is, the person you quoted follows the philosophy of Pascal's Wager, which is a joke.

Difficult to say where it comes from, but having the matter of a whole universe stuffed into a pretty small area tends to create huge pressure, not to mention the energy. It'd heat up pretty quickly.

In any case, there is evidence for the Big Bang. We're just working on what came about beforehand.
Man has no way to know for sure that, billions of years ago that exactly happened. Man cannot even form a widely agreed basis on what happened a MILLION years ago.

Er, we can't?

In what way?

Let me guess, you're on the side of "6000 years".

I am a straight 14 year old male atheistic Communist vegan loner. If you have a problem with any of this, I only request that you stay the fuck away from me. If you have questions about atheism or Communism, ask someone else, because there's a 99% chance they can explain it better. If you have questions about veganism, or are yourself a vegan, send me a TG, because I fear that I am the only one on NSG.

The consensus is 13-14 billion years. The only ones who debate this are creationists with no real scientific evidence.

The Big Bang happened 13.75 billion years ago at current estimates, and thus was the beginning of time. Nothing happened before that.
