What created the universes?

Question

religious or scientific i just intersested to no what people believe!! I personally believe in the big bang.

Answer 1

In the Big Bang theory, our universe might have started when a bunch of stuff simply appeared suddenly from the "vacuum" would be described as a very, very hot soup of very special natural-systems, very special stuff. Then suddenly this stuff began to get larger in size, so to speak, and cool. Indeed, this "space" in which it's contained begins to expand in all directions and this leads to the material cooling. Additional natural laws that describe behavior of "large" configurations, galaxies, solar systems, planets, land masses, and the like need to exist in some form, where they eventually aid in controlling much physical behavior. After a very long period of time everything we see today, the earth, the stars and even you and I are produced. Now certain questions arise. What started the expansion? How can something expand without there being something to expand into? Where did all the additional natural laws come from? Any cosmogony successfully must answer questions like these.

The Univers was created after "Big Bang", after the concentration of cosmic materials

Answer 2

The universe is "everything knowable" so there can only be one universe (you said universes sorry). Also this is one of the rare instances where science and religion can agree. Most scientist believe the universe started with a "Big bang", most religious people say it was God who caused it. Stephen Hawkins was awarded a papal medal by the Pope John Paul II for proving the theory of the big bang, as an initial starting point for the universe. The argument before this was has the universe always existed as many scientist thought or did it have a start point as many religious people thought.
What initiated the big bang is still up for argument. One theory i heard was a neutrino came into being, passed into another sub atomic particle and then tried to stop existing. This is a very old theory but i still think that the question of what caused the "Big Bang" is not yet proved.

Answer 3

The big bang !
The universe exists within our scope of knowledge and observation. There are multi dimensional universes that we can only percieve through theoritical mathematics. But the big bang does not answer the fundamental question what existed before the big bang. Some say time was created at the big bang. That's possible and therefore there was no time before the big bang. We are used to cause and effect so something must of started the time - is it possible there is a universe with no time or one where time is encapsulated in a loop - like the circumference of a circle ? This question may never be answered - that may be a blessing as absolute knowledge corrupts absolutely. If you believe that your point of view is the only one that holds water then you may discard other points of view which are probably more valid.

Answer 4

I'm agnostic so I don't know what to believe!

I think I believe that some kind of etherial being (not necessarily a God in the traditional sense) created us.

I don't think the entire universe was created by a big bang and that was the starting point of everything and before that there was nothing. Afterall what created that bang, and what created the thing that created the big bang and what created the thing that created the thing that created the big bang!????

Answer 5

What's wrong with all these people saying 'God did it'? That's not an answer at all - appealing to a supernatural creator who waves his want and sprinkles his magic pixie dust - how does that explain anything?

It was bound to be a heated debate since the question implies that some 'thing' created the Universe - you might as well ask what causes the shapes in the flocks of starlings as they go careering around the sky.

If you want a serious answer look up the ekpyrotic scenario of M-theory. For those who answer the Big Bang - I commend your faith in science but the big bang is a theory only of the Universe's small initial size and rapid expansion. It says nothing about the very beginning. If religions could offer any explanation beyond 'God did it', then maybe they'd be worth listening to.

Answer 6

First there is only one universe that anyone is aware of.

Whatever one believes about the origin of the universe it is not a scientific belief in the sense that it can be tested by the scientific method of observe, repeat, test, etc.

A belief about origins is just that - a belief.
However we have the account of the Creator who has told us a lot of what happened in Genesis.

It is *not* unscientific to believe that God created the universe. It a very reasonable assumption. My view is that is a much more reasonable assumption that the alternative assumption that it happened by itself!

In fact it is highly unscientific to ignore a priori evidence (Genesis) just because it conflicts with some peoples philosophical/religious atheistic views.

Answer 7

No one knows.

The big bang might have been a natural event or it might have been designed by a higher power. Anyone who tells you that one or the other of these is the sure truth and that the other side is wrong is only stating a religious belief. With all respect to those beliefs, there is no proof either way.

The important thing is that we not let those beliefs divide us here and now. We can have our own, and still respect the other persons'.

Answer 8

I believe in creation,God created the Heavens and the Earth,the stars and the moons.
If there ever was a big bang,my question would be Who was responsible for it?.GOD!

Answer 9

No one knows really,with all the best minds in the world trying to come up with the unanswerable question WHY.
I hope it is GOD so he can come and clear up this mess.
evolution is still an unproven theory.
So at the end of the day no one really knows regardless
I do believe it is a question that will never be answered

Answer 10

God created the universe out of chaos. But it was the politicians who created the chaos in the first place.

Fred Hoyles invented the term "big bang". He thought the idea of the universe suddenly materialising smacked of religion and "big bang" was his sarcastic way of dismissing it. Now scientists seem to agree that there was a big bang. I suppose next we'll get Richard Dawkins telling us that he's invented God.
