Do you think that maybe this isn't the first universe to have existed?

Question

I had a thought - I don't know if it's an original idea, but what if there have been previous universes that have been destroyed by something like an anti-Big Bang where everything is destroyed and converted back to the particle mass that was the origin of our current universe? Maybe it's a cycle. Maybe there have been millions of universes, maybe not all had life, maybe many did... oh the possibilities are endless.

Answer 1

You may be right or you may be wrong. Either way I love to hear questions like that because I know you are a thinker not just a follower.

Answer 2

That's interesting that you say this because about 13 years ago I wrote almost this same thought down in a journal. I was talking about this with a friend. We wondered if the world had existed previously and had come to an end and then started up again, cycling like this constantly. If so, had we lived this life before and could this be a version of past lives?

Answer 3

yep that is a great question, hope you get a lot more answers, my thoughts are , we have the earth and all the planets around us and know very little about them, quite often at night i look up in the sky and wonder if we will ever find that or those other universes , there has to be more than just our system,

Answer 4

I always liked what Stephen Hawking once said, "Asking what came before the Big Bang is like asking what's north of the north pole."

Answer 5

Dude im going with the bible so i dont thinks so BUT...

Damn this is such a cool question though, and if i could i'd give you 100 points for your thought process.

Rock on!

Answer 6

I think so. It's hard to believe that the universe's supposed pattern of exploding and imploding started with us.
