Implied in recent lines of research, especially on mathematical infinity (see CV): The Big Bang Theory is a total farce. It is easy to see what led to it in the 1920s. Just read the sources of that time. A quickie hack job. Everyone agrees that there is no evidence for it. The same with "singularity." No one even knows what a singularity is supposed to be. Big bang and singularity are to physics what alchemy is to chemistry.
