'The Big Bang Never Happened'

[Robert59]

Science writer Eric Lerner argues against the cosmological theory

Boom! The universe burst into existence about 14 billion years ago. So argue proponents of the Big Bang, a widely accepted theory that the universe expanded from a very hot and dense state into, well, everything. But not everyone agrees: "Saying that the Big Bang theory is a well-confirmed theory is very much like saying that the emperor's clothes are beautiful," science writer Eric Lerner tells the Asia Times in the first of a four-part series.

Well, he doesn't offer any evidence to the contrary. So much for that story.

Consider the source......Newser????.....Science Writer????

There is a critique of his position contained in the story. I'm not going to bother getting excited about any of this but the critique can be found here.

A "hot and dense state",sounds like a black hole.But what preceded the big bang ? Another universe ? What was the ultimate origin of it all ?

Watch a lot of scientific documentaries. There's all kind of neat stuff out there about this.

Probably believes the Earth is flat too
'The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is thought to be leftover radiation from the Big Bang, or the time when the universe began. As the theory goes, when the universe was born it underwent a rapid inflation and expansion'
With correct scientific instruments this CMB can be heard

If this is the same man, I read the book he wrote about the subject. He said everything evolved out of some kind of plasma. Since the big bang theory is theory, he may be right. I don't bother dealing with propositions that can't be proven.
