    Dr. David Lamey discusses the Big Bang Theory and its implications for Christian theology. He explains that the Big Bang Theory claims the universe began with a hot, dense state, smaller than an atom, 13.8 billion years ago. This contradicts historical beliefs of an eternal universe held by philosophers like Aristotle and scientists like Einstein. Lamey details the evidence supporting the Big Bang, including redshift observations by Slipher and Hubble's measurements of galaxy distances. He also touches on alternative theories like steady-state, oscillating universe, inflationary theory, and quantum cosmology, concluding that scientific evidence points to a creator out of nothing.
