Do ya think that the big bang and the reason scientists can think of anythink substantial before then is becouse that particular event was god just saying "let there be light"?
Pats you're right in that the Big Bang really flows directly out of the idea that the universe is expanding. Google "Hubble's Law" and consider its logical implications.

Big bang sparked by what? when will the expanding stop? we can't explain these things becouse we can't comprehend them becouse that's gods domain not ours, ie how can we comprehend whats before creation when we diddn't ceate it and we can after it? If we fiddled with things like that we could end up in any mess

Also, there are a few interesting findings from the Wilkinson Microwave probe and how that relates to universal origins... I find that the intelligence, beauty, purpose, and comprehensibity of the universe are good arguments for God too...
Pats said:woa.. I've tried to read up on the theory of the Big Bang before.
It's a lot of heavy physics. But, I thought the gist of it was more centered on the idea that the universe is ever expanding than the idea that existance began with a literal big bang. I think that's a misconception? But I'm sure some one who knows more about this will come along and post.
In the mean time, here's a good link I got on the Big Bang from a physacist who said it was a good place for laymen to read about it.
Einstein also said hat there must be an equel, oposite reaction to evry action, so if you follow just einstein on this the universe can't expnad forever can it?
As I understand it, Big bang is an inevitable consequence of Einstein's General theory of Relativity (formulated 1915). If GR is wrong, Big Bang is wrong -- simple as that.
Under the Laws of Thermodynamics, everything is dying.

So the only coolant left is atomic hydrogen, and this would leave gas clouds over a hundred times too hot to collapse.

Since everything is dying, I would assume that light must be included.
Perhaps, the word dying is inappropriate term to use for light, however I will replace it with the words slowing down.
Couple of research indicated that light used to travel thousand of times faster in the past than today.
It may seem constant to us now, however for more than 200+ years of study and observes, the data has showed that the light did, indeed, travel faster in the past. If thats true, then Id imagine that the light could have been nearly infinity from the very beginning, making a long light-years of billions into only several thousand years.

There are a lot of flaws in the theory of Big Bang and should be dismiss completely.
from: http://www.europhysicsnews.com/full/14/article1/article1.htmlWe'll start with oxygen. This is the heaviest of the three CNO elements, but the one whose site of birth is probably best understood. Most of the oxygen in the present-day Universe was produced in nuclear reactions just before or during the spectacular stellar explosions known as Type II supernovae. These occur at the end of the life of stars that began with about eight times or more mass than the Sun. The amount of energy that can flow through a star, from its nuclear generation in the star's hot core and up to the surface, is strongly dependent on the mass of the star.
If that’s true, then I’d imagine that the light could have been nearly infinity from the very beginning, making a long light-years of billions into only several thousand years. (I'm a follower of Young-Earth Creationists and I support Answer In Genesis completely).
