'God and the Big Bang' #07
What's in the series? Previous: Believers and the Big Bang Next: How old is the Universe?
More about the contributors to the ‘God and the Big Bang’ videos: many people think that science and faith tell conflicting stories about how the universe began. But the scientific picture is of the universe having a definite moment of creation in a vast cosmic explosion (the 'Big Bang'), which was fine tuned to make human life possible.
Far from conflicting, the scientific picture of how the universe began points towards a supernatural creator God. These videos feature astronomers and physicists who accept the scientific account of the Big Bang, and who also believe in a God who created us.
