Most scientist that believe in that theory believe that when the explosion took place, it came from a particle the size of a golf ball or smaller. Secondly, there was not bang because there was not oxygen necessary to make sound. Einstein did not believe in the big bang theory. He believed that the universe was eternal. To me, the amazing things is that God has so much priesthood power that he could make it happen. That every element in the universe responds to his commands. Thats amazing.

The Big Bang attempts to explain the mechanics of it (HOW it happened). It says nothing about WHY it happened, or WHO made it happen.

LDS teachings tell us WHO made it happen, and WHY it happened. They say nothing about HOW it happened.

The term days is not used to mean a 24 hour period. It means that there were 7 phases or 7 periods of time. As far as the big bang is concerned, who knows??
