Quote# 40408

Fundie 1: Hence the saying "a little knowledge leads one away from God and a lot of knowledge leads one to God]

I got in trouble for the same thing! What can go bang without a fuel and heat source?

Fundie 2: And IMO bangs destroy and kill, never seen explosions create anything other than destruction.

"Big bang" was originally a derisory term by proponents of the Steady-State Theory. Unfortunately, it stuck. So people have an inaccurate notion of something exploding into already-existing space.

Regarding the quote: a saying is something lots of people adopt and use. That "saying" is just the usual fundie drivel.

You forgot the part of the saying about how zero knowledge leads one to looking like a dumbass.

"What can go bang without a fuel and heat source?"

Humans.

Plus, you're freaking stupid. What would the 'explosion' that started the universe be destroying?

It would be more accurate to describe it as popcorn popping.

And beneath the popcorn is turtles..

Your idiotic speculation regarding the impossibility of the big bang as an explosion needs to look no further than THE GODDAMN SUN to be resolved. Stars are balls of a gas that, due to gravitational force and pressure, produces heat, and inevitably explode in a supernova once they reach a sufficiently high density, all while undergoing miniature eruptions of energy caused by fusing atoms due to the gravitational force. Stars are their own heat and fuel source, and so was the Big Bang singularity.

Also, Rebel777 is equating the messing up of buildings and people's faces (disorganization) with the destruction of matter, which are completely different things (with the latter being nigh impossible).

Your lack of understanding is evident.

You both appear to have a severe lack of understanding of what the Big Bang actually is. Remedy it quickly before you embarrass yourselves further.

The term Big Bang was created by a detractor of the theory mocking it and it turned out that the name just stuck.

We really need to change the name "Big Bang" to "Big, rapid expansion of space-time".

The bang of a gun blowing your head off would create an absence of stupidity.

@ Antichrist: Can you actually see the explosions happening in an internal combustion engine? You have to take it on faith that they occur. It could be demons pushing the cylinders up and down.(/fundiespeak)

Strange then that most of the christian fundamentalists seem to possess only very little knowledge, whereas atheists or other people (among them also moderate christians) who speak against the literal truth of the bible normally possess way more knowldge ;)

He's right, vulcanoes explode and it's not like there's a wealth of biodiversity around vulcanic areas. Oh wait.
