Blast From the Past-Big Bang Theory

 

Not this one.  Sorry.

As I prepare for the 2025 A-Z Challenge, I have precious little time to create new posts for March.  Therefore, I've activated the way-back machine to pull up some posts from the past.  This particular gem (?) is from the 2013 Challenge (if I remember correctly, that was the last time I did the challenge.).

Enjoy (?)

********

According to some scientists (some of whom have actually seen a naked girl), the Big Bang Theory is a possible explanation for creation of the universe. 

Essentially, a long, long, long time ago in a place where there were no galaxies (near or far away), all the matter (which really mattered) smashed themselves together so tightly that it created a huge amount of heat energy.

Think "Whoopi trying on jeans" energy.
 

    As this energy grew and grew, it suddenly exploded and expanded with such an intensity, creating all which makes up the universe: galaxies, planets, asteroids, Oprah, Denny's, etc.

    This took place around 13.772 billion years ago (plus or minus 15 million years).  In dog years, this would be 96.404 billion years.

Basically, Keith Richards long ago.
NOTE:  This gag will come up again during the Challenge

    This is according to the Lambda-CDM concordance model.

     Some scientists differ, however.  The Lambda Lambda Lambda model, on the other hand, was in the process of determining the exact age of the universe, but they were interrupted when the football team pantsed them.  

Frankly, the Asian kid is the only one I buy.

     In any event, it's not like anyone can go check to see whether these eggheads (who are Blinded by...Science!) are right or not.



"That's my line!"

    The only way we'll ever know for sure is when we go to Heaven (or...Purgatory, according to Sister Mary Gregory of the Titanium Yardstick).  God (who may have a pocket protector) may tell us that the evangelicals were right all along, "Let's see, yep, it's 6,000 years old.  Soooo, they were a bit off.  Plus, it's a shame you didn't go to Muslim Heaven, what with those virgins and all.  Can I interest you in a cloud?" 
"Virgins!!?? That sounds awesome!"
"Meh.  Been there."

"And it be blasphemy like that which will put you in Purgatory in the first place.  
Knuckles if ye please, boyo."

NOTE:  I realize that not all of you believe in God, heaven, or even pocket protectors.  Bear in mind, though, that if God doesn't exist, we'll just disappear into the oblivion of ignorance.  A lot like Congress. I'll prefer to hedge my bets and go with the heavenly paradise thing.  Even though I'll be spending a few thousand years in Purgatory.

  1. Since I do believe the Bible over secular scientists, I'm going with the six thousand years old theory. Never trust a dude in a mask.

    1. I don't believe in the 6,000 years thing. Just doesn't make sense. But, it's all good.
      That mask thing, though? Yeah, I'll buy that.

  2. I've never understood why a bunch of virgins is an enticement. Wouldn't you want women who actually enjoy...? I mean, seriously. If you're going for pleasures of the flesh, shouldn't you have partners that know what to do?

    1. I do my best to apply logic when I attempt to understand some peoples' motivations. And I agree with you 100%.

    2. That said, I know Purgatory is on tap for me.

  3. Virgins can be rather uptight...without the up. I'll be sitting beside you in Purgatory. I like to believe that there is a higher power...too many religions, myths etc.. have this plus people who have died all have a vision..my mom included. I also believe in reincarnation and that we keep coming back until we get it right. Many in politics, in the world, will come back as dung beetles.

    1. I believe there is something after. I don't know what, but I'm quite sure it doesn't involve sitting on a cloud for eternity.

  4. This post definitely takes a fun and humorous approach to the Big Bang Theory. I enjoyed the way you mixed science with jokes, especially the part about the Lambda-CDM model and Keith Richards.

    Thank you for reading my new blog post, and have a nice Friday.

    1. Mixture of facts with snarky non-facts. That's what in store for April. Hope you stop by every so often.
