Genesis
Anyone?

Take the surprise the Hubble Deep Field telescope unleashed upon the
unsuspecting Humanistic Believers.
By Novemeber of 1997, the word was out, the universe was not what we thought!
Peeking out farther into the galaxy than man had peeked before, scientist
believed they would be viewing light just arriving from galaxies millions of
light years away. And according to the big bang theory, the light should have
been fairly sparse
since after the explosion, more time would have been needed for stars to be
'born' in their gaseous 'nurseries.'
But the data from this primordial source indicated the heavens were filled with
galaxies of stars. Scientists saw plenty of light, far more than expected. Dr.
Bahcall, who has worked on the Hubble project told News week magazine,
"...we're floored by how many more galaxies there were in the past."
But what happened to these galaxies? Did they fade? Or are the galaxies we see
today formed of many pieces-that is, did many primordial gatherings merge to
form today's.
No doubt they will determine some way to make the Hubble data march in step with
the big bang theory. This is because virtually all financial and experimental
resources in cosmology are devoted to big bang studies. Funding comes from only
a few sources, and all peer-review committees that control them are are
dominated by supporters of the big bang. As a result, the dominance of the big
bang within the field has become self-sustaining, irrespective of the scientific
validity of the theory.
Humanists are quick to point fingers at the dogmatic approach of the Catholic
church towards scientists like Aristotle, however they issue a quick denial
concerning the stifiling effects of Humanism on real science.
This being said the answer to Deep Fields second surprise should be even more
interesting. According to the data, and contrary to astronomers' hunches, the
universe's lights did not fire up on slowly, one star at a time. The Deep Field
data indicates they turned on in one great burst. It was as if every chandelier
in a mansion flicked on simutaneously on a moonless night.
Newsweek posed the question this way: 'Today only about two stars turn on in our
Milky Way every year; back then, tens of thousands turned on every year. How
could the lights go on practically at once?'
