The Big Bang supposedly is something that just flashed and the universe was here. The entire infinite universe felt this flash, really? Do you realize just how big the object that created such a thing would have to be? Impossibly large to cover the infinite universe, plus we can't really prove the Big Bang actually happened, we would need the scientific method to prove this, and I don't see how we can. I think this option is illogical because of how infinite the universe is, also this theory just seems to be something scientists just put out there to counter the God theory.
Just put out there to counter the god theory? Seriously? The big bang's one of many theories, with hundreds before it claiming to have much logical backing. However, physicists now have much major evidence relating to the existence of the big bang.
For as start, the Big Bang didn't "just flash". The Big Bang is the point in which an incredibly small, yet dense, concentration of matter and energy imploded upon itself - An action observed on a far lesser, but still huge, scale with black holes. The resulting explosion flung this matter outwards, the first step in the growth of the universe that we see today. Currently, due to this initial explosion, the momentum is still carrying most matter away from the undefinable "core" of the universe and maintaining its expansion. The planets, such as our Earth, formed as protons collided with neutrons and electrons to create atoms, atoms crashed together to make molecules, molecules collided and formed specks of dust, slowly leading to lumps of rock pounding into each other and forming planets. I believe, though someone can correct me on this, the Earth only came into being about three billion years after the "bang" - It didn't just come into being.
As far as I am aware, the currently "leading" idea is that "prior" (though it was not really "prior" as there was no time for it to be prior) to the big bang, "everything" (though there was nowhere for there to be anything, as there was to space for it to be in) was in a state of quantum vacuum, which is inherently unstable, leading to what is known as a "vacuum fluctuation", which resulted in the energy of the big bang. The likelihood of this happening is infinitesimally small (as in, so small that even given the entire lifespan of the universe from start to heat death it would still be basically zero), but as time did not exist, there was nothing to regulate events, which meant that the probability of the big bang was actually one.
Interestingly enough, the same principle means that, with no provocation whatsoever, a hundred-mile-wide wheel of aged cheddar cheese could simply appear over Dubai, falling and crushing the city. The reason this doesn't happen is that a vacuum fluctuation of that magnitude is so unlikely that, again, even given the universe's entire predicted lifespan, the probability is considered to be zero, i.e. impossible.
Also, the expansion of galaxies is not really due to momentum - space is expanding, which includes the space between galaxies. It's like the surface of a balloon that is being inflated - pick two points on the surface, and as the balloon expands, the points grow further apart.
You ignore the massive amount of evidence supporting the theory of evolution through natural selection, confuse the theory of evolution through natural selection with abiogenesis, quote-mine an unqualified author making claims that don't falsify the theory of evolution through natural selection nor abiogenesis, and you have the obtuse balls to claim that your not-even-wrong malarkey somehow shows that the theory of evolution through natural selection is "NOT SMART"?
