The Big Bang Theory

Maybe it was a "Big Flop" or a "Big Splat" or a "Big Drop" or a "Big Bloom" or a "Big Crack" or a "Big Pop" or a "Big Freeze" or a "Big Unfolding" instead?   The mathematics would be the same, but the connotations are totally different. The term "Big Bang" itself exposes the Scientific preoccupation with explosions, missiles, bombs, rockets and especially high paying military contracts.   Most of the University Research money in the USA for the past 70 years has been provided by the USA Military. It is not a surprise that the subconscious mental constructs generated by this relationship influence the interpretation and explanation of the data itself.
