how did that ball of dense gas get there?

The "dense gas" formed after the big bang event is the result of the rapid inflation which occured after the big bang. Inflation produced mass/positive energy in equal but opposite amounts with gravitational potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is negative. The total mass/energy is likely exactly zero.
It is not clear that "Before the big bang" is meaningful. It may well be like talking about north of the north pole or colder than absolute zero. There is a lot of research into the direction of time, and whether time is fundamental at all. Its quite possible that time is a derived quantity, deriving simply from a difference of state.
You are asking this in the wrong forum. I have taken graduate level courses in general relativity and cosmology but the average person in this section is completely illiterate when it comes to physics. They wouldn't even know the difference between the Ricci Tensor and the Einstein Tensor, let alone have a clue when it comes to your question.

matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed they have always been in some form or another just like some imagine their phony gods to be of no beginning or end .If it's good enough for a fantasy then why not for reality? quite possible that the cycle has occurred before as the black holes merge the universes resources the matter is compressed till it explodes developing into the the universe as we know it once again .
peace out

I read somewhere that eventually (and very slowly) all matter will be pulled together again (this will take literally FOREVER) and then once pulled together another big bang will happen. This is a good theory.
Going on that I'd say that there was another universe before ours was created via this big bang.

Who said there was a BANG? How does anyone even know that there was a BANG? What created the energy? What formulated NATURE and all of its complexities?
Why is man here? For what purpose? Humans support nothing that is, too, nothing that is require humans in order to sustain its self. So, why humans?

That question may turn out to be unanswerable since the universe was created by the big bang and so anything that came before is outside of the universe and therefore, unobservable and unmeasureable.

There was no big bang. Genesis 1: 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

I think the best idea is that there was another universe, and then when everything got back to the 10 pound atom, it exploded again. Note, when you think of things like this, you are no longer dealing with time. Time is a physical effect.

There was no big bang, it's impossible to "blow" something up and it "magically" falls together and becomes something. It's like throwing up a bunch of fine metals and glass, and have it come back to earth as a watch!

Why do you think anyone knows that? But, FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN THE LAST HALF HOUR, scientists have the COURAGE to question and continue to question to search for factual proof. Unlike the religious.
