Who created the universe and why would they do it. Please don't give me scientific stuff, I do not believe any scientific thing because at the beginning the beginning of evolution, the big bang or whatever there had to be something that was created by someone to spark what happened from then.

wow, you need some answers and you need them fast. The self created the universe by thinking of it. The one being meditated and created the universe. You were born and your mind now experiences the universe.

Take some of these, or all of these into perspective and you'll learn the truth.

As for the spark, the easiest and simpliest way to define it is through God's oneness. God created the universe, who created God? Easy, God created God.

If something else created God, then that thing would be God.

So think of it as reality itself "just exists," there's no other way of explaining it, the first principle had to be first, no 1/2's or 1/4's of a principle started it up, it just is and that's it.

As for the individual human being in the universe, finding and realizing his self frees him from all suffering. It's true, you should get into meditation.

The Big Bang theory was not a big bang. It started out slow and keep expanding. Like when you put a bag of popcorn in a microwave.

The first concept of a higher power (one god) was that of Mother Nature!. I believe it was by Humans before we where called ”Homo Sapiens”. Females are the barer of life. Think about this, doesn’t it make more sense that god is a female "Barer of All Life" UNIVERSAL. Evolution is an adjustment to the environment (survival) based on time. Since Mother Nature controls evolution this would combine Science and Religion into one Philosophy of our origin.

I, personally, believe that some kind of free agent existing in some sense outside of our universe, through the will of the free agent, caused the universe to spring into existence. This started from a solitary point known as a singularity, from which the entire universe expanded in what we now call "The Big Bang." Energy, matter, time, and space, all came from one, solitary point created by the free agent, the creator.

I find even more interesting how it will all end. We KNOW it began somehow, but the end is even more mysterious. ;-)

I believe in intelligent design. I can't look at the world and believe that it was "born" from chaos. Chaos reaps chaos, not order. God decided to create, and the universe was formed. A good place to look for answers is the book "A Case for a Creator" by Lee Strobel. He is an investigative reporter for a major paper in Chigago. Here is a review of the book:

Strobel, whose apologetics titles The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith have enjoyed strong popularity among evangelicals, approaches creation/evolution issues in the same simple and energetic style. The format will be familiar to readers of previous Case books: Strobel visits with scholars and researchers and works each interview into a topical outline. Although Strobel does not interview any "hostile" witnesses, he exposes readers to the work of some major origins researchers (including Jonathan Wells, Stephen Meyer and Michael Behe) and theistic philosophers (including William Lane Craig and J. P. Moreland). Strobel claims no expertise in science or metaphysics, but as an interviewer he makes this an asset, prodding his sources to translate jargon and provide illustrations for their arguments. At times, the interview format loses momentum as seams begin to show between interview recordings, rewrites, research notes and details imported from his subjects' CVs (here, Strobel's efforts at buffing his subjects' smart-guy credentials can become a little too intense). The most curious feature of the book—not uncommon in the origins literature but unusual in a work of Christian apologetics—is that biblical narratives and images of creation, and the significance of creation for Christian theology, receive such brief mention. Still, this solid introduction to the most important topics in origins debates is highly accessible and packs a good argumentative punch.

God has always existed. That excuse you yourself has already claimed you do not believe, because you clearly stated the same for the big bang (something must have started it) what about God? If God has always existed, I could just say the universe has always existed and therefore rule out the existance of God. The universe doesn't exist, nothing does, it is all a figment of someone or somethings imagination, if God did exist, we are merely figments of his imagination.

The idea that 'something comes to be' is an indeed common but a false one. This is because nothing has come to 'be' - it already was before it has been.

You, for example, did not come to be. You, the energy and elements you are composed of was already in existence before you were 'born'. Likewise, any form of creation, such as a house, didn't come to 'be' - it was already in existence in the form of energy/elements.

The idea that 'something comes to be' and is which you based your idea on you question on "how the universe came about' is a false one. The truth is, however, that nothing comes about, but always is, was, and will be.

I am one of those "fanatics" who believes that God created the universe as it says in the Bible. Whether you look in a telescope or in a microscope, creation is too amazing to be an accident. Even Darwin, who was merely attempting to explain away God,
admitted in his later years that he had been unable to prove any
ONE link in his chain of evolution. God promises in the Bible that if you ask Him for wisdom, he will give it to you. Try it.

heeeeheeeheee i have the answer yesssssssssssssss



god created the universe because it says that god created light now you tell me how did he create this light he made stars which you urselfs see and he also created other planets u figure it out and so the stars colide causing a biggger star towards the middle causing there too be just enough light for our world which we revolve around.((((happy talk to me))))))

Read the First eleven chapters of the Book of Genesis.

Then read the Gospel of Luke.

Then read the Book of the Reveltion of Jesus Christ.

Big Bang Theory - The Premise
The Big Bang theory is an effort to explain what happened at the very beginning of our universe. Discoveries in astronomy and physics have shown beyond a reasonable doubt that our universe did in fact have a beginning. Prior to that moment there was nothing; during and after that moment there was something: our universe. The big bang theory is an effort to explain what happened during and after that moment.

According to the standard theory, our universe sprang into existence as "singularity" around 13.7 billion years ago. What is a "singularity" and where does it come from? Well, to be honest, we don't know for sure. Singularities are zones which defy our current understanding of physics. They are thought to exist at the core of "black holes." Black holes are areas of intense gravitational pressure. The pressure is thought to be so intense that finite matter is actually squished into infinite density (a mathematical concept which truly boggles the mind). These zones of infinite density are called "singularities." Our universe is thought to have begun as an infinitesimally small, infinitely hot, infinitely dense, something - a singularity. Where did it come from? We don't know. Why did it appear? We don't know.

After its initial appearance, it apparently inflated (the "Big Bang"), expanded and cooled, going from very, very small and very, very hot, to the size and temperature of our current universe. It continues to expand and cool to this day and we are inside of it: incredible creatures living on a unique planet, circling a beautiful star clustered together with several hundred billion other stars in a galaxy soaring through the cosmos, all of which is inside of an expanding universe that began as an infinitesimal singularity which appeared out of nowhere for reasons unknown. This is the Big Bang theory.

Big Bang Theory - Common Misconceptions
There are many misconceptions surrounding the Big Bang theory. For example, we tend to imagine a giant explosion. Experts however say that there was no explosion; there was (and continues to be) an expansion. Rather than imagining a balloon popping and releasing its contents, imagine a balloon expanding: an infinitesimally small balloon expanding to the size of our current universe.

Another misconception is that we tend to image the singularity as a little fireball appearing somewhere in space. According to the many experts however, space didn't exist prior to the Big Bang. Back in the late '60s and early '70s, when men first walked upon the moon, "three British astrophysicists, Steven Hawking, George Ellis, and Roger Penrose turned their attention to the Theory of Relativity and its implications regarding our notions of time. In 1968 and 1970, they published papers in which they extended Einstein's Theory of General Relativity to include measurements of time and space.1, 2 According to their calculations, time and space had a finite beginning that corresponded to the origin of matter and energy."3 The singularity didn't appear in space; rather, space began inside of the singularity. Prior to the singularity, nothing existed, not space, time, matter, or energy - nothing. So where and in what did the singularity appear if not in space? We don't know. We don't know where it came from, why it's here, or even where it is. All we really know is that we are inside of it and at one time it didn't exist and neither did we.

Big Bang Theory - Evidence for the Theory
What are the major evidences which support the Big Bang theory?

First of all, we are reasonably certain that the universe had a beginning.
Second, galaxies appear to be moving away from us at speeds proportional to their distance. This is called "Hubble's Law," named after Edwin Hubble (1889-1953) who discovered this phenomenon in 1929. This observation supports the expansion of the universe and suggests that the universe was once compacted.
Third, if the universe was initially very, very hot as the Big Bang suggests, we should be able to find some remnant of this heat. In 1965, Radioastronomers Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson discovered a 2.725 degree Kelvin (-454.765 degree Fahrenheit, -270.425 degree Celsius) Cosmic Microwave Background radiation (CMB) which pervades the observable universe. This is thought to be the remnant which scientists were looking for. Penzias and Wilson shared in the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physics for their discovery.
Finally, the abundance of the "light elements" Hydrogen and Helium found in the observable universe are thought to support the Big Bang model of origins.

Big Bang Theory - The Only Plausible Theory?
Is the standard Big Bang theory the only model consistent with these evidences? No, it's just the most popular one. Internationally renown Astrophysicist George F. R. Ellis explains: "People need to be aware that there is a range of models that could explain the observations….For instance, I can construct you a spherically symmetrical universe with Earth at its center, and you cannot disprove it based on observations….You can only exclude it on philosophical grounds. In my view there is absolutely nothing wrong in that. What I want to bring into the open is the fact that we are using philosophical criteria in choosing our models. A lot of cosmology tries to hide that."4

In 2003, Physicist Robert Gentry proposed an attractive alternative to the standard theory, an alternative which also accounts for the evidences listed above.5 Dr. Gentry claims that the standard Big Bang model is founded upon a faulty paradigm (the Friedmann-lemaitre expanding-spacetime paradigm) which he claims is inconsistent with the empirical data. He chooses instead to base his model on Einstein's static-spacetime paradigm which he claims is the "genuine cosmic Rosetta." Gentry has published several papers outlining what he considers to be serious flaws in the standard Big Bang model.6 Other high-profile dissenters include Nobel laureate Dr. Hannes Alfvén, Professor Geoffrey Burbidge, Dr. Halton Arp, and the renowned British astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle, who is accredited with first coining the term "the Big Bang" during a BBC radio broadcast in 1950.

Big Bang Theory - What About God?
Any discussion of the Big Bang theory would be incomplete without asking the question, what about God? This is because cosmogony (the study of the origin of the universe) is an area where science and theology meet. Creation was a supernatural event. That is, it took place outside of the natural realm. This fact begs the question: is there anything else which exists outside of the natural realm? Specifically, is there a master Architect out there? We know that this universe had a beginning. Was God the "First Cause"? We won't attempt to answer that question in this short article. We just ask the question:
