If it were to be found out tomorrow that there were no God and there never was - then who would all those country music folk thank during their Grammy Award acceptance speeches?
I believe the (rather popular) theory that The Big Bang was created when a previous universe collapsed in on itself in a giant black hole - and was then reborn.
Making heat in a tube is hardly the same as creating a Universe. When a dinosaur or a dolphin or even an amoeba crawls out of that tube, then you can dance and scream “God is dead!” but until then it’s not really the greatest springboard for an existential Theological discussion.

Seems logical.
I completely agree, which also lends credibility to the multiverse theory.

apparently you missed this part. "The Guardian explains that the moment the scientists are re-creating happened about 0.00000000001 seconds after the Big Bang, an interval when “protons and neutrons can’t even stay whole.”

Actually, nobody is dancing and screaming that God is dead. As a matter fact, to connect the big bang to life (or even this experiment to life) is a little naive seeing that scientists aren’t really sure how long it took life to evolve after the big bang, since we know no other living things except for that of this planet how could we know?
but to get all twilight zoney on your ass. How do you know that life didn’t exist and fizzle out in that blast? maybe a billion years passed for whorton on some tiny earth like planet while it was a millisecond to us?
ooooh burn.
I just titled this “calling all christians” cause most of these jerks think they have a monopoly on creation. to which now i say, SUCK IT!

OOh you’re way old!
The #s Sagan used for this equation is way off!! Now that they have the Hubble telescope and have been mapping the milky way with it they have new numbers that when plugged into the equation says we are going to come in contact with aliens in the next ten years.
Not sure what this has to do with the Big Bang but I’ll roll with it cause it’s astronomy and I love astronomy.
BY the way, I’m telling Pat Robertson on you and you are going to get kicked out of the christian club!! Pat Robertson told me that, upon the death of Mr. Sagan, “he was burning hell right now because he spent his life trying to disprove God” and Pat Robertson is never wrong.
OOOH i can’t wait to see you get it! You’re gonna get it good! He’s probably gonna make you eat candy corn and Pal around with the Godflesh kids!

Yeah, it’s weird. I bought it at an antique swap meet and the seller was creeped out by it but didn’t want to just throw it away as he figured someone would want it . . . . I paid $5 for it.
The valve, by the way, is stuck solid in the “open” position.

When I bought it, I actually thought to myself, “I bet some creepy skinhead or Nazi-fetish weirdo would pay some good money for this.”
But then later I realized what a stupid idea that was as I wouldn’t want to do any business deals with such a person or have to meet them for the hand off.

I bet the Simon Wiesenthal Center or the Museum of Tolerance might be interested in it. I don’t know if they buy shit like that though it may all just be donations.
