Quote# 28080

Dawkins big bang theory is laughable...imagine being in the local having a pint with friends when one of them says, 'Hey, I've discovered the origin of the universe. It started with a big bang which developed all the material in the universe in an instant. In one billionenth of a second there was nothing and then there was everything.' I don't know about you but I would say, 'Yeah, right, is it my round?' But when someone with the 'pedigree' of Dawkins says it the world gasps and accepts this crazy theory as being right. Common sense tells us that to cause an explosion there needs to be at least three constituents, the explosive material and a match to light the fuse so my question to Dawkins is who was holding the match?

Imagine being in a cosmology seminar when someone says "hey I've found a problem with the big bang theory. Where did the dynamite come from?" "yeah, right, go back to your room and sleep it off". But when a fundie comes up with this nonsense all the other fundies accept it a proof that all science is wrong.

I have a headache. I thought it was just my usual "just-woke-up" headache. But now I suspect it's just the concentrated stupidity of this man reaching out across the Atlantic to cause brain damage.

Fucking OW.

I'm guessing he got his information about the big bang from watching Family Guy.(there is an episode,Untitled Griffin Family History, where god lights one of his farts on fire and out comes the universe)

I saw this linked to on Dawkins' website -- absolutely priceless.

But when someone with the 'pedigree' of Dawkins says it the world gasps and accepts this crazy theory as being right.

Of course, a preponderance of evidence collected over many decades has nothing to do with it.

... Dawkins' big bang theory? Oy.

Imagine being in the local pub having a pint with friends when one of them says, "Hey, I've discovered the origin of the universe. A magic man done it." I don't know about you, but I'd say, "Uh, how'd he do it?"
"Magic, of course!"
"Wait, where did this magic man come from in the first place, if he created the entire universe and everything in it?"
"He's magic."

And apparently this moron thinks that the big bang was a literal combustion.

Yeah, see when Stephen Dawkins wrote A Brief History of Time, and Richard Hawking wrote The God Delusion, they weren't actually jotting shit down on beer coasters and pulling assertations out their asses unlike you.

Furthermore, did you just allege God was Hillbilly Joe with a stick of gelly?

Dawkins, Hawking...what's the diff? Close enough.

Good call, Julian.

Jay Gould? Stephen J. Gould? Are you there? Could you explain YOUR theory of Solar Conversion to this person? I know that you are sometimes a bloody stupid YEC, but could you tell him how You postulated that Stars convert matter from hydrogen? Please? And how the Big bang theory is not yours? And the argument from incredulousity is wrong?

When I'm down at pub with my mates, a surprising number of "big bangs" are discussed.

You know, my friends and I often sit around drinking and come up with some pretty interesting ideas like you and your friends Bryan. The difference is that we sober up before we write some of that drunken babble into a newspaper for all the world to see our ignorance. Bryan take my advice, a lot things that sound good and reasonable when you are drunk, sound stupid as shit when you are sober, especially if you have no clue of what you are talking about to begin with.

The sheer dosage of stupidity in this article only makes one wonder where he could possibly have come across such ignorance. Thus, I demand education reform.

Only that, in case you're wondering, it didn't happen this way. It was formulated by a priest through investigation, test and error, as science does. And he kept on believing, by the way. Ironic?

The big bang theory was NOT created by Richard Dawkins you retard.

The Big Bang did not happen inside the universe.

The Big Bang created the universe.

It's not Dawkin's theory.

Explosive material + match = 2 constituents, not 3.

Is this guy saying that he believes people think that there was this giant explosive back then, and that someone had to light the fuse?

In one billionenth of a second there was nothing and then there was everything...
How about a god that poped out of nowhere and created everything? How did you know god didn't use the big bang as way of creating the planet?
