"It's backed up by evidence and peer review."

It, being the chain of events following a big bang, is backed by evidence and peer review is a logical conclusion.

It, being proof that time began at this point, is not backed by this logic.

It doesn't demonstrate what you said it would, proof of a beginning. In fact, using your logic, the evidence denies a beginning. It only provides evidence of one plausible explanation for a chain of events, that start at a gumball, and stops there with no logical reason for the stoppage.

I can prove all kinds of starting points for the current situation, they all have precedents. My alarm bell rang this morning to start a chain that leads to now. What about the gumball? Did a bell ring for it? Why do you keep claiming the big bang accounts for that when it absolutely does not. If you think it does, then tell me the secret. Otherwise I can only conclude that it is illogical beliefs that are contradicted by your logic of cause and effect.

Time may have a beginning or it may be eternal. It may have begun at the big bang point but your logic contradicts that notion and there is no proof that if a big bang occured, the big bang did not have a precedent. You have failed to demonstrate the proof you claimed to have about the beggining of time.

That was your second try, following the earlier links to the scientists comments on the history of time. Care to try another approach?
