Where our laws of physics don't apply, and time may be nonexistent but is much more likely very different but existent. 😀
 
This whole "big bang" thing is nothing but a theory put forth by those elitist "secular humanist" terrorists whose mission life appears to be to remove God from both the classroom and from government.

The Correct answer is: Something

OR IS IT?!

The current universe existed before the big bang.

You see, time is actually passing in the opposite direction we perceive it, because of the way our memory is based on entropy. What we perceive as the the past is actually the future, and when the big bang occurs it will be the end of everything.

Perspective on life according to George Costanza:

"The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is
tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it?
Death!

What's that, a bonus?!? I think the life cycle is all backwards.
You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you go live in an old
age home. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your
pension, then, when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first
day. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your
retirement.

You drink alcohol, you party, and you get ready for High School. You go
to primary school, you become a kid, you play, you have no
responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back, you spend your
last 9 months floating with luxuries like central heating, spa, room
service on tap, then you finish off as an orgasm!!"

No, really, haha.

sounds like that st:tng episode where the q take them beyond the universe... season 1, i think.

A collapsing galaxy with in it planets were beings believed in a great pink elephant which created them and the rest of the galaxy. And some beings with an IQ above 50, whom didn't believe in an almighty creator.

There is no "before". Time began with the big bang.
And at a time the world was flat, and the speed of sound could not be broken. The very nature of science means a "fact" today may be proven wrong tomorrow. If you follow the universe to it's logical conclusion, one of two things happen by my reconing: either the huge amounts of mass we know now expand to infinity or the black holes eventually pull everything into them, and then pull eachother together into a single singularity of mass. This is already partially observed through our observations of the behaviour of black holes. This means that it's quite possible that the single point which will result from this could be the very thing that happened at the beginning of our universe, and that it may not be the first time it happened, either. Stating "there is no before" is just as much conjecture, and possibly even more conjecture, then the alternate theory which I have proposed (probably has been proposed many times before as well) here.

But measurements show the universe expanding at an increasing rate. If your black hole theory was true, should it be the reverse.

And something could be everything, it could also be nothing. So everything could actually be nothing.



We're screwed.
 
kind of difficult to tell. the closer we go back to the time of the big bang, the more our math and physics fall apart. we don't know exactly although there are theories.

You're an idiot. It is impossible for this not to be.

Why is he an idiot for believing that? (granted I think the post was partial sarcasm). I don't get how people can accept that there was "always something" before the Big Bang and that the Big Bang just "happened" one fine day, but they can not accept that other people believe that a God has always been... whats the logical difference?

(mind you I believe in the Big Bang and science and all that jazz as much as the next guy... but I also believe that, without a doubt there COULD BE a God that made it all and made it all happen.

Not at all. It'll be very easy to convince me of his existence. I just need proof. And not "the grass is green and the sky is blue" proof.

yet you need no proof that the Big Bang "just happened"? and that all matter has just always been and always will be? As I stated above, I don't get that.
 
I love this stuff and looking into all this information. My question is, is it completely ruled out that our universe is just a galaxy in another? Couldn't we just be a current blackhole in a much larger universe?

That's the "Horton Hears a Who" theory I think 🙂
