Big Bang

Once I was a devout follower of the Catholic religion; now I am a follower of Atheism. Growing up, I was raised in a catholic house hold and for the most part it was enjoyable and not much was pushed onto me or expected of me in terms of my belief system. I went to catholic school from preschool all the way through high school. There are many reasons as to why I converted to atheism but the main reason was because in my eyes, I saw a lot of fallacies and sophistry in religion, a lot of it was…

distant stars become more distant from us (this is the Big Bang theory is an assertion), the light in the shifted towards red, which reduces the power of light, this leads to the paradox unlock again. However, the two effects capable of separately resolving the paradox, the big bang theory, according to the combined effects; the finite nature of time is more important effect. Some believe that the darkness of the night sky is supported by the Big Bang…

The scientific side of this believes that time and matter were created as a result of an explosion bigger than a supernova. This theory is called the “Big Bang Theory”. Most scientists and philosophers believe that all of the universe’s mass was compressed into one small particle about the size of an atom. Scientists explain that as this “big bang” occurred, light was brought to the…

Marie von Ebner Eschenbach once said, “In youth we learn; in age we understand.” I agree with this quote. During youth we learn and experience a lot of our “firsts.” Our first word, first steps, first bully, first fight, first kiss, first relationship, first love and first time. Thus, when we get older we evolve and understand more of what life is and what is expected of you. Though I am merely fifteen years old and haven’t graduated high school yet, I’ve matured and have learned from my…

Universe. Source: NASA (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/hubble/science/hd140283.html) Scientists have declared that the Universe itself is 13.8 billion years old. We have arrived at a pretty accurate estimate as to the Universe's age after the Big Bang. A slew of myriads of different sources have been based upon the figure. Nothing should have existed even before the formation of the Universe. When scientists observed the stars within the Milky…

Imagine, if you were not yourself, yet at the same time you were. Imagine that you had led a completely different life. Maybe you were a soldier, an engineer, a banker, or maybe you did nothing with your life. What if you were born a with a different name, different gender, a different race; what if you were not born at all. Imagine a world where the American Revolution never happened, The Allies fell to the Axis, or the Cold War ended in nuclear annihilation. However, none of these scenarios…

While there is a belief that humans have evolved from apes, religion has an explanation. Evolution is the theory that modern life has descended from a common ancestor, through the process of natural selection. Faith on the other hand, claims that life was created in the form it is today with some alterations from God. Since evolution was found it has been debated by all faiths. Evolution generates an explanation for the origin of life which is not necessary when there is religion, logic, and…

Theory on Lithium in Stars May Be Confirmed The light chemical element lithium is one of the few elements that is predicted to have been created by the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago. But understanding the amounts of lithium observed in stars around us today in the Universe has given astronomers headaches. Most heavy elements are produced during supernovae, as massive stars explode in their death throes. However, these events were believed to be too rare to produce the vast amount of…

Before taking the biology 160 course, evolution to me was the change in different species over a period of time. During this course we read a book written by Bill Nye that describe evolution. After reading this book I had a different definition on evolution. Evolution is the process of growth in DNA by natural selection in an organism that can cause genetic defects such as mutations. As I described evolution to me now is the process of growth in DNA by natural selection in an organism that can…

In this paper I will analyze the argument of the “Fine-Tuned Universe”, describe what it means, show how an opponent would argue that intelligent design isn’t the best explanation, and also provide my own view on this argument from my theist view. Have you ever wondered how the universe got here? How everything perfectly fell into place, and how you’re here today? The Fine Tuned Universe argument may help you better understand. This argument is a version of the teleological argument, which is…
