I totally disagree with the BIG Bang and the formation of singularities that only exist in theory.

Modest it seems you make statements yourself without supporting evidence.
Am I to understand that you think that the universe originated from one singularity?
as your words state that its only a theory.

Yes, Pluto, I'm saying that big bang theory claims that the universe came from ONE singularity rather than many. "Singularity" is not a good word to use, as it leads to confusion. But, the thing I'm trying to get across is that BBT does
not claim that there were multiple singularity points throughout the universe from which the mass of the universe exploded.
The best way to think of it is like this:
Consider any two points in the universe that are sufficiently far away from one another. Currently they are expanding away from one another. This means that they used to be closer together, and the further and further you look back in time the closer and closer these two points were.
If you 'rewind' the 'film' of the universe back far enough then these two points and all other points of the universe used to be touching. This is T=0 (Time=beginning), the singularity, where everything was infinitely close to everything else—the moment of the big bang.
I believe you are perhaps confusing this 'big bang singularity' with the singularities that are theorized to exist in black holes throughout the universe today. These are not the same thing. They have theoretical and physical similarities, but they are theoretically and physically different. Notice any page describing the big bang:
Big Bang Theory
Talks about "a singularity" and "the singularity".
