I think over the next 20 years or so some of the Big Bang stuff will be proven wrong or partially wrong ISFA as we'll discover a better explanation. The idea that everything sprang from an explosion emanating from a miniscule area / volume has always bugged me, but obviously there are certain observations we can make that do indeed show that the universe is expanding, that certain things we can observe happened a certain "time ago", etc.
So IOW, no chance the universe is 4000 years old and all that jive, but I think there is a chance we'll find a better theory than the big bang and maybe even some of our physical laws will need adjustment, though the math is way out of my realm....
...into the light of a dark black night.
