cyrels reply to JS and Chip:
To say there is no center to the BB is equating it to sphererical two dimentional space.
No, in fact, we don't know what the overall topology of the universe is. What we do know is that it is not necessary for us to observe any fiducial center of the expansion. There is no problem making analogues to 3D space. Did you read my previous post?

That is one of the great problems with the BB besides the others.
The current concept of the BB is not cosmology but instead is COSMOGONY.
Again, look up COSMOGONY. You are using the word improperly and making yourself look strange by continuing to repeat it in such a context.

Creation out of nothing,
Not a necessary feature of the big bang (see above)

disembodied force fields,
what is "disembodied" about them?

the above problem and many others.
The above problem being you don't understand how 3D and 2D geometry can be related? That's your problem not science's.
