idolatry and the big bang theory
No need. You've already revealed yourself as a creationist imbecile, and
the rest of your post can be predicted to a high degree of accuracy.
Just like the idolators of yesterday, the people who believe in the
big bang will attack those who question their beliefs.
1) The theory states that there was a giant explosion in the beginning
of time which resulted in a relatively ordered universe. But
explosions never result in order whatsoever. Explosions take place in
wars and terrorist attacks, but what do they bring? Destruction and
disorder. Not order. Therefore, if a giant explosion did occur in
the beginning then it could not have produce the relatively ordered
world that we live in today.
Here you simply take the creationists' chronic misconceptions regarding
thermodynamics and apply them to the evolution of the entire Universe,
rather than restricting yourself to living organisms. It's the same
argument, and it's just as wrong.
Of course, they will never explain why attacks on idolatry are wrong,
they will just demonize the people who question them and call them
ignorant.
2) The observations made through the telescopes yielded data which is
very accurate. However, the data has been interpreted with the
assumption that the laws of the universe way out there in space are
the same as they are here, without actually going out in space and
taking measurements there.
And how do you propose we do that? Answer: you don't. Rather than have
us make a few eminently reasonable assumptions about the way the
Universe works, so that we can do science, you would prefer us to sit
still and read the Bible.
The idolater says if you don't think my god is powerful, then why
can't you build a better god? He then mocks the nonbeliever in his
god implying that reading his Bible is stupid.
It is certainly conceivable that our
interpretations of the telescope observations are wrong and the laws
of the universe distant from us are different than what we experience
here. In fact, this is not only conceivable but probable. We have
observed many weird things in the universe and it is not a simple
thing to understand. So for instance, it is probable that these
universal constants are not really so universal.
Why is this 'probable'? Give one example that supports your contention.
Then the idolator plays dumb.
