In another thread Straggler and I were discussing Inflation and the BBT. I raised the question that there was questions about the BBT. I was asked for the questions. It was suggested I start a thread that they might be discussed.
Straggler made the following comment to Buzsaw
Here.
Straggler writes:
At best creationist theories are a hotchpotch of alternative explanations for the effects and phenomenon that proper scientific theories have already predicted, discovered and uncovered.
Which prompted some questions from me that Straggler answered.
Here and ask one of his own.
ICANT writes:
So when did the BBT predict inflation?
Straggler writes:
Never. To my knowldge.
ICANT writes:
Was it some 50 years or more after the theory?
When there was enough problems with the BBT that it should have been discarded.
Straggler writes:
Really? What problems are these?
I would like to present 7 question that are problems for the BBT that is found
Here.
CAMBRIDGE COSMOLOGY HOT BIG BANG
Shortcomings of the Standard Cosmology
The flatness problem
Why is the matter density of the universe so close to the unstable critical value between perpetual expansion and recollapse into a Big Crunch?
The horizon problem
Why does the universe look the same in all directions when it arises out of causally disconnected regions? This problem is most acute for the very smooth cosmic microwave background radiation.
The density fluctuation problem
The perturbations which gravitationally collapsed to form galaxies must have been primordial in origin; from whence did they arise?
The thermal state problem
Why should the universe begin in thermal equilibrium when there is no mechanism by which it can be maintained at very high temperatures.
The cosmological constant problem
Why is the cosmological constant 120 orders of magnitude smaller than naively expected from quantum gravity?
The singularity problem
The cosmological singularity at t=0 is an infinite energy density state, so general relativity predicts its own breakdown.
The timescale problem
Are independent measurements of the age of the Universe consistent using Hubble's constant and stellar lifetimes?
I would like to see these problems addressed with evidence for and against as I think it would be very educational.
Assertions will not be considered as evidence.
