The Law of Conservation of Mass says that matter can be neither created nor destroyed. (This is also true for energy) The Big Bang theory suggests that at the beginning of time (and the universe) a single atom appeared from nowhere. My questions are: How did the atom just "appear?" How do we know that this atom wasn't created by some higher power (deity). Note:I'm trying to understand the Big Bang better, so no negative comments, please.
