The Big Bang regularity has displaced the 4 dimensional space-time continuum (no universal beginning or end: a Steady State universe) altogether. The inquisition still lives. Only its methods have changed.(Refer, the ROBERTSON FAMILY CONSPIRACY. A review: p.p.~ 44 - 47.)
The Big Bang is said - by the dominant scientific paradigm and its mass media-created and maintained perpetrators and maintainers - to be the cause of the (observed, proven, measured) expanding universe. Pictorial glossies - featuring blue and red, cold and hot spots (Ain't this the trots?) - of the alleged aftermath of the Big Bang. Sold to earthly tourists, as alleged 13 billion year old souvenir replicas of the ongoing aftermath of the so called Big Bang. Giving what is unproved, precedence as a standard over what is proven. Ergo: everything geological; having to do with flora, fauna or human life, profane and divine, proves the Big Bang Theory (That Einstein was right in predicting it). So says the mercenary Peter Ustinov. Exemplary SPIC & SPAN man. Behind the three dimensional fan. Whereas, Einstein predicted an expanding universe: before the universe was serendipitously proven to be expanding. On the other hand, the Big Bang was formulated: because, the universe was unexpectedly proven to in fact, be expanding.
The 'beginning of creation.' A subjectively invented, finite crutch for objectively manifest infinity. An empty box of 3-D promising CRACKERJACK. A surprise infra-dimensional crazymaking toy inside. Featuring a 3-dimensionally exploding universe that ignores - finds and maintains an insulation against - the 4th dimension. Excluding it from reality altogether. (The jestering insistence that there is no gravity and that the 4th dimension sucks.)
