Built on a house of cards Astrophysicists have measured the temperature of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation and its small variations (anisotropies) but also they have found it is partially polarized. They make the claim that,1 The largest contribution to the polarization was imprinted during the epoch of recombination, when local quadrupole intensity fluctuations, […]
Tag: BICEP2
In 2014 the BICEP2 team of astronomers operating out of their South Pole telescope made the spectacular claim of detection of cosmic inflation via a signal that was expected in the CMB radiation from accompanying gravitational waves in the period of time much less than a second after the alleged big bang. I expressed my doubts […]

COSMIC MYTHOLOGY: EXPOSING THE BIG BANG AS PHILOSOPHY NOT SCIENCE THE LARGEST STRUCTURE IN THE OBSERVABLE UNIVERSE OR COSMIC VARIANCE? HAS THE ‘SMOKING GUN’ OF THE ‘BIG BANG’ BEEN FOUND? HEY, NOT SO FAST WITH THE NOBEL PRIZE! […]
In March 2014 a team of astrophysicists announced to the world, through a public press release, that they had made the biggest discovery of the 21st century. Using the BICEP2, a telescope located at the South Pole they claimed that they had discovered evidence of the early inflation epoch of the big-bang universe. In several […]
A response to “A Response to Four Young-Earth Objections to Inflation” 1 Astrophysicist Dr Jeff Zweerink works for the Hugh-Ross-led organization Reasons to Believe. He recently wrote the above article. Relevant portions of his words are reproduced (in green) with my comments interspersed. A remarkable correspondence exists between inflationary big bang cosmology and the Bible’s accounts […]
“Astronomers Just Detected the Beginning of the Big Bang”, “Big Bang’s Smoking Gun Found”, “Astronomers Discover First Direct Proof of the Big Bang Expansion” and “Major Discovery: ‘Smoking Gun’ for Universe’s Incredible Big Bang Expansion Found” were some of the headlines on Monday 17 March 2014 around the web-based news media. One article described it […]
