I think applying the conservation of angular momentum to the big bang theory doesn't fly. Where's your source that the singularity point was spinning in one direction? A quick skim of wiki doesn't say that.

Also; matter collided after the big bang, as the universe expanded. Such collisions would easily change the direction of the particles impacting, so that they didn't match the initial spin, if there was one. I'm not sure the basics of this criticism of the big bang theory really holds up.

I've listened to a couple very smart people make very pointed criticisms of the big bang theory, but they didn't mention this. Nor do I think it violates the laws of thermodynamics you mention. IIRC, according to the theory, matter isn't created; it is simply that all of the matter in the universe was in one point (wow!). Nor does the formation of planets violate the second law. The universe before the big bang was very ordered, in the way of matter not being spread out over vast empty areas. Okay, I'm not quite sure that's a good explanation for the second law, but I am sure the theory doesn't violate it.

My Order to Disorder argument was directed towards Evolution, who claims life came from nothing. That seems backwards to me and I'm sure many people would agree to that fact.
