I think you may be confusing the notion of "unbounded" with the notion of
"finite". The Big Bang is perfectly consistant with the notion of a
finite but unbounded universe.
On a completely different note, physicists were planning to rename the
event which created the universe after complaints from feminists that
"Big Bang" was a sexist term. Does anyone know what new name was
ultimately selected?
