I lived in Burnaby,BC.Burnaby isn't small though.That sucks your comic shop shut down.I live in a small town in NJ.There is no shortage of comics but I guess with no Marvel Comics being made in CANADA,there isn't much chance a small Canadian town is going to do well with comics,especially in this recession.

manga is big here though. the old store did fairly well, because it sold other stuff as well, like model cars (diecast and build-it-yourself stuff), games, toys, and other collectibles. I've drained paychecks there, and no doubt others here have too. I used to live in White Rock, so I got all my comics from Grey Haven. They've got a decent selection. hell, that's where I was getting my The Authority books from

I've seen a couple pages, but no. My stupid local comic store shut down, and the manga and normal book stores don't have any decent titles, so I'm still waiting for it to arrive in the mail. I'm not happy about that either. "
That sucks.

I don't know about that.

It does to me. LOL.

What evidence is there that supports Big Bang theory? What makes it real?

@Webstad said:
"Hypothesis: an untested/untestable idea, with no evidence or substance to support it. "
So, the Big Bang is a hypothesis now? "
This goes to show your lack of understanding. The fact that the universe is constantly expanding (evidenced by red-shift - google it if you want to know what it is) from one focal point is evidence enough that all the universe's matter was compacted to one location, in singularity. Only the Big Bang would explain why all the universe's matter is moving away from this central location. so yes, it's the Big Bang THEORY.

"1: explain to me how you think faith could be better than evidence
In terms of religion, what's the point of evidence? LOL. Faith is all you need. One doesn't have to prove God is real, if he believes that he's real. Just because I don't see him doesn't mean he isn't there. But, like I said, you're atheist, so you wouldn't understand.

It's kinda like saying truth is subjective.

@Webstad said:
" a)the majority of scientific theories HAVE been proven
Too bad the Big Bang hasn't been proven. If you wanna be real, scientists don't really know what made this planet or universe for that matter. Making up a theory and running with that is if it's real is pushing it. LOL.The quantum field is also just a theory, from what I can remember. I don't think that has been proven either. "
Saying that because I'm an atheist that I wouldn't understand is rather ignorant. I do in fact understand. I understand full well. You said point blank that faith is better than evidence. I simply challenged that claim. In terms of atheism, what's the point of faith? Faith is avoiding the problem by refusing to find an answer. Religion doesn't explain sufficiently the origins of the universe any better than science does. At least a scientist will admit that we don't know everything yet. A theist will simply give a lame answer that doesn't explain anything at all, without the slightest evidence to give it any credibility. And we don't just make up a theory and run with it. In fact, it doesn't even make it to "theory" from "hypothesis" (and there is a big difference) until it has sufficiently stood up to rigorous testing. What religion does is come up with a hypothesis and run with it, without giving it any substance.

Definition time
Theory: a testable, proven/provable idea, with evidence to support it.
Hypothesis: an untested/untestable idea, with no evidence or substance to support it.
