The dawn of civilization

Can you provide a demonstration of the big bang on a small scale, so we can see how nothing explodes and creates something?

Can you explain the slow progression of humans once they were considered to be fully formed in light of education and technical advancements?  When were they fully "evolved" so as to be what would be considering modern humans and at what capacity for learning and being innovative were they at that point?

I know I came up with those questions, but I am genuinely curious about these things.  I asked in a different atheist forum many years ago and nobody had a response, and still haven't seen an explanation on this one.  Maybe it's a good opportunity for someone to share without being offended.

Hilarious

No.

You've not offended myself.

As I've posted it's not the 'Tone' of your posts but the method in which you're employing English.

Not at work.

The ignorance displayed in that question is impressive.

If you were genuinely curious you would read about the actual science from reputable sites instead of trying to pose what you think are "gotcha" questions. Nobody owes you any explanations or education if you refuse to take even the simplest steps on your own.

"Ignorance" as defined by you?  If so, I'm not really interested.

I didn't suggest it as a "gotcha question."  Nobody is forced to answer it, and I didn't demand a specific response.  So how is any of it "gotcha?"  And on that note, I haven't suggested someone "owes" me anything.  You're attribute a value to something separate that has no value beyond your own imagination.  So to that, I say "nonsense.

Last thing, you are not in a position to tell me what I think, no more than I am in a position to tell you what you should think.  Besides that, Merry Christmas. Smile

 Just a question?

What do you think/believe/know about said thing/event in question that you've brought up?

Not at work.

I've heard various explanations.  From the micro-dot explosion theories, on to the compressed matter the size of a grapefruit, and so on and so on.  There are lots of various theories and explanations floating around.  Some with components that are scientific and some just bits and pieces of someone's imagination.  Care to answer the question(s) now?  If not, good enough.  As I said, I'm not trying to single anyone out on any of it.

 Well... I'm, currently, just trying to gauge where your mind is at in regards to the matter y'see?

 Stepping my toes into this water's pond.

So, for starters, you're aware of the idea of 'Black holes' and how the gravity gets 'Weird' aroud such things, yes?
