not exactly true..... There are theories like integrated starlight and
thermalization-- if the universe is infinite. The Big Bang has problems with
the "horizon problem" and the anisotropy of the background and polarization of
the background if it started from a single point. It also has problem with
having consistant expansion and accelerated expansion observations when it is
assumed. The lack of explainations coming from other theories should not be
taken as proof that the Big Bang is correct, only that other theories have not
received as much work. Dennis.
