Aaah I see the issue here... lets have a look at your reply

Physics at energy scales my a$$!
You clearly don't understand the statement, so your rebuttal is naturally to say that the statement is dumb or stupid. Standard tactic, It doesn't
make my statement any less relevant. Yes, physics processes occur at different rates and dominance at different physical configurations. Highly
compressed and highly energetic environment, you won't form regular matter as we know it. So conceptualizing it in the 'way we know it' in regular day
to day life is quite honestly incorrect.
Gone faster than the speed of light yet?
Impossible....
But aliens have?
Relavent to the subject... how exactly? Talking about the inflation period? if so, simply ask. So lets break it down again
(Q)Gone faster than the speed of light yet?
(A) No, and nothing that we have good solid physical proof has either in a manner than transfers information
(Statement) Impossible....
(Reply) Probably as far as we know
(Q) But aliens have?
(A) Aliens undoubtedly exist... Do we have proof that they have visited? or can travel FTL? No, we don't have any solid, good evidence of such a
thing. Just evidence that apparently defies the proliferation of high resolution video and photography equipment... We have had more than 10 years of
improvements to consumer digital photography and yet all we see posted as evidence is the same grainy artefact riddled rubbish mixed with some
ignorance to how the devices work to explain what appears on the images.
You're right, I don't understand the Big Bang theory, though I've read a little...I just think 'what will those wacky scientists come up with
next?'
Ah yes the classic "Iv read a little bit of popular science and don't get it, so the people at the heart of the subject are obviously crazy"
Ever met a scientist? Most people haven't and most popular science tv programs are made with almost zero scientific oversight. They are also pitched
to people who don't know the subjects very well and are not really interest or invested to really expand their understanding. So, as a layman who
admits not understanding it, it then goes with the territory that your opinion of the theory and the people working on said subjects is basically from
an unknowledgeable standpoint and thus irrelevant.
If you want to form a reason as to why the big bang theory is wrong, it needs to be on firmer ground than "Oh man its crazy!" Sorry, but yeah you need
to try a wee bit harder.
It's more likely that we, in our limited human understanding, can't yet understand a concept like 'faster than light travel' or 'where the universe
came from/how it started.'

And then comes a grand statement, "we in our limited human understanding" Yeah we admittedly don't know it all. No scientist ever claims to, or
shouldn't. Because the layman always sees us science 'boffins' as 'know alls' or have ideas of how just about everything works... the rabbit hole does
go down a long way and every scientist worth anything will admit that there are very many things we simply don't understand.
With we have with the big bang theory is lots and lots and lots of observations, and only a single, really good theory that fits them all to a good
degree and in a self consistent and predictive way. SOooooo again this throw away statement is kind of just as silly as saying "I don't know, but
despite not knowing, i know it isn't this"
