Not sure about the intent of this question, but the Steady State Theory (an adaptation of Einstein's Static Universe Theory) was in contention with the Big Bang Theory in the early 1900s. For a while, support was split between these two theories. Eventually, the observational evidence, most notably from radio source counts, began to favor Big Bang over Steady State.

There have been many other rival and alternative theories in spite of the consensus for th Big Bang Theory. While other ideas were proposed as non-standard cosmologies to explain Hubble's observations, including the Milne model and the oscillatory Universe (originally suggested by Friedmann, but advocated by Albert Einstein and Richard Tolman), the confirmed discovery and interpretation of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) barrier in 1964 secured the Big Bang as the best theory of the origin and evolution of the cosmos.

What divided the Sunni and the Shiite?

The division between Sunni and Shiite Muslims originated from a disagreement over who should succeed the Prophet Muhammad as the leader of the Muslim community. Sunnis believed that leadership should follow community consensus, leading to the election of Abu Bakr as the first caliph, while Shiites believed that leadership should stay within the Prophet's family, leading to the belief in Ali, Muhammad's cousin and son-in-law, as his rightful successor. This difference in opinion resulted in a lasting schism in Islam.
