Flaws in the Big Bang Model



In today's post I will be covering a few arguments against the big bang theory that Astrophysicist Dr. Jason Lisle brings up. 

The first problem with the big bang theory is known as the Flatness problem. It turns out that the rate of expansion for our universe is really finely balanced with the force of gravity. This would have to been so precise at the moment of the big bang for the model to work. The next one that we will look at is the Horizon problem which is a light travel time problem. We have also found out that the cmb which stands for cosmic microwave background radiation has quite an even temperature. If the big bang was true we would have various parts of the universe starting with very different temps. What we see today however is that they all have nearly the same temperatures, but according to evolutionary theory not enough time has passed for these regions to swap light so they can to get to the same temperature.

The third problem that I will cover is the Mono-pole problem. Magnetic mono-poles (particles with a single polarity) would have been created at the big bang's temperature, however no one has discovered any. This implies that our universe was never that hot.

One of the theories that scientist use to explain away these problems is known as the Inflation theory. However this theory contains more assumptions which assert that the universe started to expand at a much higher acceleration rate then went back to the normal expansion rate. This story doesn't have any evidence to support it however. Also what mechanism would cause this? How did it change in such a smooth way.

Then we have the singularity problem. Usually in physics when you end up with infinity you've made a mistake, but in the big bang model we have infinite density/heat and no space. We are not sure if physics would even work at that level. This still doesn't tell us what caused the universe.  Another one is the baryon number problem. If the big bang model was true it would have produced an equal amount of anti-matter, but supposedly we only find very little anti matter. Then there's the fact that we see fully formed galaxies instead of ones that are only beginning to form.

The last problem that I will address is in regards to the existence of population 3 starts. By evolutionist own admission the big bang would not have produced any elements heavier than lithium. Since the big bang supposedly only made the elements hydrogen, helium, and lithium, how did we get the other elements? Evolutionist will say they were made inside stars. Well, it stands to reason that the first stars (population 3) wouldn't contain any heavy elements, however all the stars that we can see with our telescopes do have heavy elements. Where are the population 3 stars?

So in conclusion we see that even though evolutionists may have an answer for some of the problems with the big bang theory, there are still several more that evolutionist cannot explain.
