How was the universe created; 由 the Big Bang, 或者 God?

Big Bang 或者 some other scientific theory. Science rules and I've never believed in God.

Well,I see Big Bang as a tool that God used tocreate the Universe just as Carpenter uses a hammer, nails, and wood to build a house.
No event in our universe just happens. Rather every event has a cause. Every cause has an effect each effect may itself may become a cause 或者 multiple causes in a causal event chain. Such that if the if the universe is at size (x) it will be of size (x+1) in a few moments, and a few moments later size (x+2) and soon. Conversely, one can walk the causal chain backwards such that we see the universe at size (x-1), and size (x-2) all the way back to ... size(1) a singularity and here in lies the rub.
Logic dictates that someone 或者 something had to have "caused","created", or"made" the initial singularity that caused all things to come into being. At the point before the singularity was made we enter a realm where there is no chain of cause and effect (at least as this universe knows it). The universe does not exist yet someone 或者 something does exist that is capable of creating the initial singularity but has not yet done so. Whatever that initial agent is, it exists outside of chain of cause and effect, outside of this universe. In other words there was no cause to cause it to come into being. It is eternal, unending, and not in need of a casual event (as we are) to justify it's existence. Essentially, this entity is the"Uncaused Cause".
The 问题 now becomes, is this "Uncaused Cause", progenitor of the singularity, conscious 或者 unconscious? Does it have personality 或者 was it impersonal? If it is unconscious and impersonal then 你 have to ask yourself how consciousness and personality could arise from the mechanical, unconscious, and impersonal. In fact it could not as that would be a violation of entropy and that is an impossibility. However, if it does have consciousness and personality then both the impersonal and personal, conscious and unconscious can arise from it. Thus, the"Uncaused Cause" must have personality and consciousness and ergo we arrive at God.
Only those things that had a beginning had a cause. Since God does not have a beginning, He did not need a cause. He then is the only one who can be the ultimate beginner – that first uncaused cause. This uncaused cause of all things is who we call God.This makes God and only God necessary since He was needed to begin it all. The universe and everything in it is not necessary outside of serving God’s purpose, plan, and causal objective.
Thus, IMHO, the answer to your 问题 is YES! God used big bang as a tool to make the universe.

Personally, I believe in the Big Bang. I believe that the possibility for everything that could ever possibly be was compressed into one micro particle called singularity. The outward pressure was so big that it exploded outwards at millions of miles per hour. We are still moving from the force of that explosion, which we can see in the red and blue shift of celestial bodies. If 你 look at the sky through the right type of lens, 你 can still see the energy from the big bang. One day, that outward force will stop pushing outwards and gravity will pull everything back into itself and crush everything back down into a singularity, which will explode outwards again. We won't be there at this point: we will have 迷失 our supply of heat and energy as we 移动 away from the sun (or the sun will 移动 onto it's 下一个 phase and become a red giant and not produce enough energy to support life, either or.)

Basically, I think the universe is in one continuous, never ending cycle of expansion and contraction.

However, I am also open to the idea of God. I am agnostic (I haven't come to any solid conclusions yet) so what's to say that some singular being hasn't created the building blocks of the universe and watched it develop? (One thing I am sure of - whoever/whatever this being is, I don't think it interferes with the everyday running of our lives.)

What if we believe that the Big Bang was how the universe was created, but that God made the Big Bang happen?

Once again, how could an explosion occur when there was nothing at first? It doesn't make sense. What makes 更多 sense to me is that one man 或者 woman were the architect of everything. So I am 更多 of a believer in an almighty entity than an explosion.

Like sarabeara said, I'd go for the Big Bang that was created 由 God. Although I'm now agnostic UFN, this seems 更多 plausible to me than saying it was just a Supernova from a 星, 星级 that was created out of nothing.

I believe it was the big bang but i accept other peoples beliefs xxx

i say both. Cuz how did the Bing Bang just get there .... like 嘿 its here .... i belive that good made things like plants and animals, cuz even though they involve science i dont believe that the bing bang could just pour some chemicals together and make it .... so yea :)

The Big Bang theory is very possible. I am athiest and an Ancestrial (belief in a possible Spirit world and that we rule ourselves without any divine being) so I do not believe in a God that created everything. There are many Christian here, so I did my best to try and not offend anyone here.

I believe in the big bang.

Neither.

I'm an Atheist, I believe in the Big Bang~

I belive that God did the Big Bang

I believe God made it all. Now let me get 更多 detailed about WHY I believe it:

All life cannot just create itself on it's own 由 randomly "exploding" into a big bang. Something 或者 someone has to be there to make it. Now before u say "Who made God?" that 问题 really is invalid. See, in all creation there is one main "starting point" that made it all to where it is now. There is only ONE starting point, and it's God. If someone ELSE made God, then that means there's another starting point. And if u asked who made that one, then there'd be ANOTHER starting point. See? It would keep going and going to no end. And creation just doesn't do that. There is only ONE starting point of life, and it's God. But others cannot accept that for some reason...

the big bang is a theory that could explain the formation of the universe itself, but being a theory, it is not the actual truth, and just an idea

"God" is a 邪恶力量 being who is believed to have created the universe. while there is some proof that some things in the bible occurred, the idea of "God" existing has no real evidence. "God" also varies from religion to religion, so it can't be 说 which one is the real god

being the atheist i am, i'm 更多 inclined to support the Big Bang idea.

There is no science, 或者 God. Just someone playing The Sims.

I believe I have already made this quite clear on the 辩论 club. I am agnostic, so the idea of a God existing is not necessarily what I will first believe... The trouble is, we have no real proof of anything... God could exist, and then I would be able to believe it... If he didn't exist, then I wouldn't believe in a God at all - that is to be agnostic - to see that there is no proof of Him existing 或者 not... To add to this, if a God existed, I think the God would 更多 like Gaia, not just the idea from the Gaia theory, 由 James Lovelock, but a representation of the Greek god, Gaia... While in an interview, Lovelock stated that he doesn't believe that Gaia, Greek god, exists... And he says that others shouldn't, too - I disagree... If there is a God, then there is a likely chance that God may not necessarily be the one that Christian people envision and the same for the other religions, of which there are quite a few - the best thing is keep believing in your own faith, stay true and be tolerant of other peoples' faiths and there will never be any problems, except those created 由 ignorant, intolerant jackasses that go out of their way to ostracize everyone else.

As far as the Big Bang goes, I am the same as with God. While it does seem somewhat unlikely, I am not completely opposed to the idea. If it really did happen, then how did it happen? How is that the Universe was nothing, and then it suddenly became? Could this 更多 likely be something that happened from Creation, 或者 is just a simple scientific fact? The thing is, we may never know, so I cannot completely completely discount, nor advocate it. However, I do have one opinion I'd like to share - could it be possible that the Universe always existed and not a Creation 由 God, nor the Big Bang theory? If anyone has any opinions they'd like to share on this, be aware that I am considering putting this on the 辩论 club - this question, I mean, about whether it was God, Big Bang 或者 neither.
