No Big Bang? Quantum equation predicts universe has no beginning

Of course not.

I know.

I was just being literal. Perhaps a bit anally, but literal none-the-less. I must admit, it was fun!

Whew! I'm relieved!

Now there's a niche just waiting to explode.

Right, it's the religions (created by man) that require those things not the creator(s) (as in a God or Gods).
It's their theory of what God wants just like the big bang is a theory of science. The key word there is theory. You can believe in a God(s) and not believe you have to worship, donate or sacrifice. You can believe a God started the universe without the worship, donations and sacrifices also. You can also see that the way most religions believe the universe started is similar to the big bang like I originally stated. If you believe the worshiping, donating, and sacrifices came from God then you must believe in a God.
It all comes down to believing in a theory, weather it's the theory of God or the theory of the big bang. Neither can or have been proved.

It's no secret to anyone that I believe in God and I'm not here to argue or try to persuade anyone to change their views. That wouldn't be right. We've all been given the freedom and the choice to believe what-so-ever we want to. Forcing someone to believe something really isn't a true heartfelt belief anyway.

That being said, I can't understand how some people can believe that all of this is just happenstance or a mere coincidence:

The planet earth, a rotating sphere, hangs 93 million miles from the blistering surface of the sun. The size, position and angle of the earth is a scientific phenomenon, no doubt about that!

A few degrees closer to the sun we'd disintegrate, a few degrees further, we'd freeze to death! The axis of the earth is tilted at a perfect 23 degree angle and I don't believe that it's a mistake that it is, because it allows equal global distribution of the rays of the sun, in turn, making it possible for the food chain to exist.

Or take for example the atmosphere we breathe every day. It just happens to be the exact mix that life needs to prosper and doesn't happen on any other planet that way; that perfect blend of nitrogen and oxygen, I mean.

And look at the moon that controls the tides. Did you know that the tides are to us, what a housekeeper or maid is to a hotel? The tide causes the ocean waves to crash into the earth and drag impurities back into the deep depths of the ocean. It's like a constant recycling cycle. And every stream, river, creek, etc. moves toward a larger body of water for the same reason, to carry away imperfections to the deep.

Then think about the stars that rotate with such exact precision that the atomic clock, with an error factor of less than three seconds per millennium is set by the way our earth moves.

All of this is just mind boggling!

Doesn't it make sense then, if there's a plan, there's a planner and that if there's a design, there's a designer? I see all of this as a miracle and to me, if there's a miracle, there's a God.

Just sayin' is all.

Carry on...
