The universe!?

Question

If the universe did not exist and along whatever is in it, what would we have. Also if the universe did have a finishing point what is on the other side?

Answer 1

k, here's a theory I learned to accept over the years:

The creation which created itself of nothing: Before the universe came to exist properly, there was "nothing". That would mean no space, no matter. Evidently if such a situation could occur, it would already be classified as an event, and thus time (here defined as a distance between cause and effect, or where inapplicable: the distance measured in instances between one event and another) existed. Yet it was quite different from time as we know it, as there wasn't much to differentiate one event from another, "time seemed infinite then" would explain it in lay man's terms. Anyways, the story goes on. As nothing at all existed, indeed complete void, there was a duality aspect in this primordial universe: the lack of "anything" created a counter "force," vacuum. If a lepton (such as an electron) were placed anywhere in this nothingness, it would break into an infinity of infinitely smaller pieces in every direction at high velocities. Thus there were three attributes to this pre-universe: infinite time, void, vacuum. Yet the vacuum and void have their additional characteristics. To put it all in easily chewable bits: the void and vacuum could be divided in forms of energy-particles, mass less particles with a property to be exact. The property applied to any form of energy is arbitrary, male female forces, plus minus, anything. Whenever one vacuum particle touched a void particle, they would cancel out or annihilate. And that is how the entire universe was in those times, since they were mass less, they don't take up space, they just exist as a consequence of the situation. And the balance existed for only so long. In a game of numbers, a single occurrence had to come to existence. Since there was infinite time, "something" was bound to happen. Even if the chances were one in ten to the forty-second power, that chance would occur in infinite nothingness, in infinite time. This single occurrence was the collision of two like particles, either two vacuum or two void particles, it makes no difference, they caused an avalanche of like particles to start colliding and making a snowball effect of sorts, as the particles of this like energy kept growing and expanding at a certain rate. At some point, they found an energy efficient level of complexity, a quantized number of energy particles if you like; this was the first point at which anything beyond ever-annihilating "nothingness" could exist. Interestingly enough, the creation of this first "particle" occurred so spontaneously that it was as if the universe was empty and then instantaneously had a ball of matter in it. At such a point, point zero, the universe was born, since the first point of matter, would also be the first point that can take up space, space was also created instantaneously. The importance of this is as follows: if the possibility of matter is a quantum number, then any form of non-matter smaller than the first particle would physically not take up space, "not exist physically" even. So the distance that matter moved from nothing to one, being a quantum number, made this form of primordial matter expand at an incredible speed in every direction, while space would also expand at this rate in every direction. Now, since nothing stands in space's way, space can expand infinitely at this speed, even until now and beyond. Yet matter was another story, matter's properties were always of two important factors: matter affects matter, matter is of dual nature. Since matter affects matter, and considering that everything in the universe seeks balance (due to energy efficiency, it is a consequence, not a decision by a creator) then matter is dual also of consequence, not decision. The universe, before it existed could not be a hole, nor could it be filled, as it would exist as one or the other, it had to be both; in order to cancel out, it is only logical. Lastly, since matter affected itself, it brought more complex forms (energy, quarks, leptons, hadrons, atoms even were born, and heavier elements... life itself was a result of energy efficiency in a rare situation of enthalpy, feeding complexity through destruction)... I think you get the picture

Answer 2

If the universe did not exist, there would be nothing. Also, if the universe did have a finishing point, there would be a starting point on the other side.

Answer 3

if there was no universe, there would be no us to begin with. the universe does not have a "finishing point" either. it is finite and without bound.if you could go fast enough in a strait line you would end up back where you started.

Answer 4

if the universe did not exist aong with evrything else, we would have nothing of course =)
and if the universe had a finishing point, it would be when everything is all gone gone and again there would be nothing.

Answer 5

thered be no us and thered be just totaly nothing
