I saw this show, The Universe, on the History channel last night; they were explaining "Big Bang" and the creation of the universe (from Evolutionist views, for all you devout Creationists out there). They said that Big Bang was caused by a huge massive colossal amount of matter and energy collapsing in on itself and exploding outward, spreading the matter across the cosmos. Now, that's confusing for me, and I find myself asking the question: But how did all that matter get there in the first place to collapse on itself? It didn't just pop into being and explode instantly (again, I'm going on Evolutionist views).
Then they went on to a different subject (at least they thought it was different) and were explaining how in several hundred billion years a "dwarf galaxy" called 3C something (I can't remember the rest, it's a serial #) was going to collide with the Milky Way galaxy. And then, in several more billion years, the next nearest (and next largest) galaxy, Andromeda, was going to collide with us. And the next, and the next, and so on.
Now, doesn't that explain Big Bang? Over an extremely long amount of time, when all the galaxies converge, you get the implosion of - eventually - all matter in the universe, and then BOOM! and it all scatters again, to reform... like a MASSIVE heartbeat? When the lifeblood of the universe, the stars, gathers, pump it out again, like the heart pumping blood through the body. Doesn't that mean that the Universe itself could be a living being, and that the Big Bang was not, in fact, the beginning of time, but the next step in a long succession? And that brings up another question:
How many Big Bangs have there been? How many heartbeats?
(p.s.: I'm not evolutionist OR creationist. I believe in both. I don't think that life could have just evolved from nothing, but I also can't argue with scientific fact that proves evolution. I think that whatever it was that created life (sorry, I'm not christian, I'm agnostic) brought it into being, then gave everything a little nudge to "start" evolution, and maybe sometimes gave a little help along the way. That explanation just makes more sense to me than "everything evolved" or "everything was created".
