(505 posts)The scientific community, especially cosmologists and theoretical physicists, are far from agreeing that the big bang is the foundation of an expanding universe; if such a thing exists. So if those that scientifically disagree with the big bang theory would change the source of their information, they would be in agreement, along with all the adjustable parameters necessary to that belief, with it? That's the type of magical thinking that led to the theory in the first place.
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle tells us there are limits to what we can know about the behavior of quantum particles.The uncertainty principle says that we cannot measure the position (x) and the momentum (p) of a particle with absolute precision.Your observation of either position or momentum will be inaccurate and, more important, the act of observation affects the particle being observed. This would make it all but an impossible task to state that there even was a beginning to any aspect of what we call the universe. This supports the static model.
