Science Offers A Godless Miracle

Mainstream scientists don't believe in miracles. They say that miracles are incompatible with science, because supernatural events violate the laws of nature. Nevertheless, cosmologists and astrophysicists present their own fundamental miraculous event through the Big Bang Theory. The origins of the theory reach back to the 1920s when astronomer Edwin Hubble discovered that, rather than being static, the universe was expanding. Now scientists claim that about 13.8 billion years ago the universe was born out of a singularity, a hypothetical dimensionless point of zero volume with infinite density that contained all of the matter and energy in the universe. So the world was born when the deep and primordial nothing exploded in a gigantic firecracker. This theory of the creation of the cosmos, something out of nothing, parallels the Biblical story in Genesis wherein God also creates the world ex nihilo, out of nothing. However, the scientific theory emerges as a bizarre and secular postmodern myth that involves even a greater miracle than the Biblical story itself. This is so because in the Big Bang Theory the universe springs into existence without the will and intervention of a Divine Creator.
