The dissing of the big bang, I believe, is solely because having a beginning to time, space, and matter requires a cause that exists outside time, space, and matter. In other words, God. The scientific community just can't have that. They know that the big bang could not have happened without God, so they're leaning toward steady state now. In other words, the universe has always existed and will continue to exist forever. They explain away the existence by doing away with the beginning and end that really does exist.

The scientific community just can't have that. They know that the big bang could not have happened without God, so they're leaning toward solid state now. In other words, the universe has always existed and will continue to exist forever. They explain away the existence by doing away with the beginning and end that really does exist.
