What the Big Bang Theory Means for Science, Evolution, and Christianity.

Let us begin with some simple statistics:
  • If the big bang had been even one part smaller in one hundred thousand million million, the universe would have collapsed in upon itself.
  • In order for life to exist, stars must exist. However, the odds of the conditions being correct enough for stars to form is one in a one followed by at least one thousand billion billion zeroes.
  • If the strength of gravity or of the weak force were changed by a one followed by a ten with one hundred zeroes after it, life would be impossible.
  • There are about fifty constants and quantities that must be balanced to a mathematically infinitesimal degree for any life to exist.
So what does this mean? These facts all factor into how the universe, how the earth, and life as we know it were created. As you can see, the odds of all these things coming together for even cosmological events to happen are (no pun intended) astronomical. The big bang theory is in fact one of the best ways to point to a Higher Power, an Intelligent Designer, a Creator, a Deity, or a God. Whatever title you use.
Atheism is at its core an utterly illogical and irrational belief system, wrapped in intelligent-sounding arguments based on "science" that was brought straight from the late 19th century and "proofs" that were stated in the '70's and debunked in the '80's-'90's.
If these last few statements anger, please voice your opinion below. Please keep in mind, however, I will be doing posts about the Miller experiments, macroevolutionistic theories, Charles Darwin, etc.
I have many plans for this blog, using it as a basic apologetics site and how to logically defend faith.
We choose Christianity as the true faith because of two reasons: the emotional side of things, where we get the radical changes in people's lives, and the intellectual side of things, where we can see how modern science proves how God works and who He is.
If He is the God of all mankind, He will open Himself to all who seek- even those who look in the science.
