I read and it does not answer my question.
So, why can't ATM proponent put their efforts into showing how well their theories agree with the available experimental data, instead of bashing the mainstream?
After all, mainstream scientists work on getting the theories to agree with the observations.

Are you saying that the observed microwave background is there only when you wear the "BB goggles"? That its spectrum does not follow a black-body spectrum?
Are you saying that spectroscopy, used to detect elements and estimate their abundances, requires the Big Bang Theory and not Quantum Mechanics and Atomic Physics?
Are you saying that the Hubble relation (redshift proportional to distance) is only an interpretation?
Are you saying that the large-scale structure is there only because the mainstream scientists believe in the Big Bang?
In order to make all five observations only interpretations of the BB Theory, you'll have to show that determining distances and taking spectra of objects, and detecting microwaves, require the BB theory.
