“From time to time, there are press accounts of astronomers seeing the birth of a new star. This leaves the impressions that astronomers saw a star that wasn't there last year, but this isn't what is happening at all. Rather, astronomers sometimes discover stars among clouds of gas and dust. These stars have certain properties that most astronomers think young stars ought to have, and, given their location in regions that many astronomers view as stellar nurseries, they interpret these stars as being newly born, say in the past few million years. The process of star formation is supposed to be very slow compared to human lifetimes, so no one has ever claimed to have seen a star being born.”

“While the current big bang model hardly resembles earlier versions, confidence that the big bang is true remains strong. Whenever a problem arises with the big bang, an ad hoc solution is invoked to explain away the problem. Most scientists don't think there needs to be any evidence for each rescuing device because if the rescuing device wasn't true, then the big bang model would be false. There is no alternative out there, so anything else, including special creation, is unthinkable.”
