Back to Georges Lemaitre, a Catholic priest:
A CENTURY ago, if you asked a cosmologist the universe’s age, the answer may well have been “infinite”. It was a neat way to sidestep the question of how it formed, and the idea had been enshrined in 1917 when Albert Einstein presented his model of a static universe through his general theory of relativity.
General relativity describes gravity, the force that sculpts the universe, as the result of mass warping its fabric, space-time. In the mid-1920s, astrophysicist George Lemaître showed that according to the theory, the universe wasn’t static but expanding– and would thus have been smaller in the past.

If naturalist atheism was such a great perspective, you’d think they’d have figured out the answers to all these problems. But no?
Like everything else, naturalist atheism is just an opinion? So why should it dominate?
May as well listen to the priest. I mean, seriously.
