Check John chapter 1
If then Christ was from the beginning than He would have to know -wouldn't He?

Also I would start praying again only this time love your God with all your heart and all your strength and love your neighbour as yourself.

Ah, I get that response all the time. Oh that's it, I must not have done it right or been faithful enough.

You read a book and now know, for a fact, that "Goddidit". Brilliant.

You are aware that Jesus didn't write the Bible, right?

Appart form the Gospel of St. Thomas (actualy he is suposed to have dictated it to Thomas). However that was banished to the apocrypha so we don't need worry about that!

Funny how people like A4C consider the bible the word of God/Christ, but the only bit that is actualy suposed to be is a bit they ignore anyway since its considered part of the apocrypha. Funny old world innit?

Did you see that little thingy marked "Other (Explain)?"
In Australia we have a saying "Fair go mate" Now my advice to you is give an Australian a fair go or they get very nasty . Now I happen to be a Christian one but I still have some old habits that perhaps I shouldn't :)

Hmmm... I said theistic big bang but to be honest I'm not sure.

I know very little about the big bang theory and I don't know what the evidence is for it.

I don't however believe my Gods were behind it...

Or anyone elses before the smug comments and irritating smileys come my way.:clap: ;)

The only reason I think any "intelligence" was behind it is the old "where did matter come from" question.

Matter came from a Higgs Field, care for an explanation? :)

I'm also curious as to where time would have come from. Do the big bang models you offered as choices suggest that time is infinite in the past? Or does "origin of the cosmos" suggest that there truly is a beginning to time and everything in the universe?

The Big Bang Model does not talk about time similar to the way evolution does not talk about the origin of life. The Big Bang Model assumes time. I look for answers on the origins of time in String and M-Theory. Right now String Theory is going a reformulation so that it can be presented in a manner that is both timeless and spaceless. They do have a guess as to what made time, but it's just that — a guess.

Why then do you suggest any big bang model as the origin of the cosmos if they don't address it?

The Big Bang is an origin of our universe but aditional information is needed in order to find out the origin of time. No theory listed knows where the time came from. As I said, String Theory has a hypothesis. The Big Bang however, is a well-evidenced model as to how our universe began.
