Atheists, Hello? May I ask you again?

Question

What created the big bang? If A created the big bang, what created A? If B created A, what created B? There won't be an end to my question. Atheists have never answered this Q rationally yet (I have posted it here twice)

btw, don't talk about "uncaused events at the quantum level" again. Someone tricked me. I've done some research. There's no "uncaused events". The "random theory" is not the same as "uncaused".

Answer 1

Please use the 'search' function in here. We've answered this hundreds of times, and we would have a lot more respect for people if they'd see what we have written before they ask us a question.

Answer 2

Here's my hypothesis: It's all energy.
Conservation of energy. The universe collapses into a singularity, not unlike a black hole. When all matter is collected this energy repels back into existence (because it can not be sustained long as a singularity via Conservation of Energy), thus the Big Bang. All this energy expands into what we call the universe and eventually collapses back into a singularity; only to repeat these same events over and over again.

Answer 3

1) Ask this in the science forum.
2) Not all atheists are for the Big Bang.
3) WE DON'T KNOW what created the Big Bang, but that does NOT mean that by default there is a god.
4) Please hang up and try again.

Answer 4

Who said its random? Energy is not random it is a contestant. Any way not knowing the origins of the universe is honest answer. Unlike religion which makes up a answer and a massive collection of contradicting mythologies to go along with it. A intelligently designed universe would look a lot different. For example God would not destroy 99.99% of species that walk this earth just to get it right in the 00.01%.

Answer 5

As Mr. Spock was so fond of saying, "one cannot answer logically when one has insufficient data."

So if you are asking for anything more than a theory, you are wasting your time. Neither atheists nor theists can answer this question with certainty, but it is a million times more intellectually responsible to say, "I don't know for certain, but there is some evidence to support xyz hypothesis" than to say, "I know for certain it was god."

WHEN we are able to gather data on the phenomenon we call the birth of the universe, then you will have a more rational answer.

Is this satisfactory?

Answer 6

Atheists are actually INTELLECTUALLY HONEST about these kinds of questioning by stating "...we don't know exactly yet, but we're working on it, in due time we will find out..." Unlike theists who issue fiat-like decrees by giving the credit to a 'creator god' - a convenient, reassuring idea for them at least for the moment - but yet unverifiable as it is. So who's being more honest here ?

Answer 7

"Empty" space can carry energy, known as vacuum energy. Many physicists think that a tiny level of vacuum energy constitutes the "dark energy" that is causing cosmic acceleration. In inflation (big bang theory), the same accelerated expansion happened at a vastly higher rate, driven by high-density vacuum energy. Inflation can explain the properties of our universe if it caused the universe to double in scale at least 85 times, after which vacuum energy transformed itself into matter and radiation, paving the way for galaxies, stars, and planets.

Imagine a small region of "empty" space, which none-theless contains vacuum energy. It will expand exponentially, and if there's lots of vacuum energy, it will quickly swell into a stupendous valume of empty, but energetic, space.

E=mc squared (general relativity shows that mass and energy are interchangeable, so there's really just one law: the conservation of energy. This law would appear to be a very good argument against the creation of a universe, because that would mean that all this mass and energy around us could have never been created from nothing. But....Energy is not always conserved, the universe might have begun with little or no total energy, and "nothing" can have energy.

First, energy and its conservation are not absolute in general relativity, which describes space, time, and the universe's structure as a while, or in quantum mechanics. For example, in general relativity, the energy of a particle such as a photon is conserved only if the geometry of its surrounding space is unchanging. But because of cosmic expansion, a photon traveling between galaxies loses energy and shifts to longer, redder wavelengths.

In quantum mechanics, an object's energy can fluctuate over an extremely short time, as exemplified in radioactivity. Although a uranium atom has an ergy barrier to breaking apart, a quantum fluctuation can allow a particle to acquire enough energy temporarily to breach this barrier and escape through a process known as quantum tunneling.

Second, little or no energy does not imply little or no stuff, because energy can be negative as well as positive. for example, gravity prvides a negative contribution to the energy of any pair of objects, which becomes more negative as their spearation decreases. When a stone falls, it gains kinetic energy, but it also picks up an exactly compensating amount of negative gravitational energy. And becuase e=mc squared, negative energy is equivalent to negative mass. If you weigh a pair of large rocks on an exceedingly accurate scale, they will weigh slightly les apart the sum of thetwo rocks weighed individually and far apart.

Third, quantum theory predicts that empty space carries vacuum energy, as attested experimentally by the Casimir Effect. Over the past decade, observations of distant supernovae and the cosmic microwave background have revealed that vacuum energy appears to comprise a shocking three-quarters of the current universe. In relativity, vacuum energy implies a repulsive, antigravity force. If there is enough vacuum energy to overpower matter's attractive gravity, the universe will expand exponentially, doubling in scale, over and over, in a fixed interval that dpends on the amount of vacuum energy. With cosmic acceleration, astonomers observe just this sort of exponential expansion beginning in our universe.

Answer 8

You are very funny. This stupid question only works with children, who are too naive to counter to obvious meaninglessness of the question. Are you just a child, or did you never grow up? This is really dumb, you know. No, I guess that you don't know. Still, very funny to see people still relying on this shallow thinking.

Answer 9

So, god was sitting around for countless billions of years, literally in the middle of NOTHINGVILLE NO-WHERE, picking his nose, not a thought in his head until suddenly, he decides to "CREATE" things. He thought "pull my finger"....

Just out of curiosity, when god was creating the heavens, how could he create "light and darkness" BEFORE he created the sun and the stars? Look it up.

Answer 10

A parallel universe moving along a hidden dimension smacked into ours. The collision heated our universe, creating a sea of quarks, electrons, protons, photons, and other subatomic particles. It also imparted microscopic ripples, like ocean waves crashing on a shore.

These ripples generated tiny fluctuations in temperature and density, the seeds from which all cosmic architecture—from stars to gargantuan clusters of galaxies to galactic super clusters—ultimately arose.
