Where did the dense matter that created the universe come from?

Question

I think the BIG BANG could have happened but why did it happen? Someone had to have made the dense matter? You can say it always existed because there had to be a beginning to the universe.

Answer 1

God created EVERYTHING!!!~ The "big bang" theory isn't real. God was, is, and always will be. That question above,"Where did God come from?" He was always there!!!

Answer 2

Why does there have to be a beginning? Because our fragile human minds have trouble with infinite and we have to force a beginning because reality is otherwise incomprehensible? There is no reason there has to have been a "beginning."

The universe doesn't owe us a beginning, and we are not yet entirely sure how it came about - though there are a number of ideas.

This question doesn't belong in the religion section though... you're better off asking in cosmology or quantum physics.

Also check back again next year, when CERN fires up the LHC and we may learn how the universe came into existence.


EDIT:

"Personally in my opinion the "Big Bang" Theroy was just an explination that Einstien (a devout Christian, btw) came up with in order to explain the time when matter al of a sudden appeared in/as the universe."

Ok, it's absurd the lies people will believe. Einstein was NOT a christian in any possible sense! He used the word "god" metaphorically for the fundamental nature of the universe... people mistook this for christianity during his lifetime, which bugged the hell out of him. Eventually in 1941 he published a paper where he clarified once and for all where he said:

"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.""

He goes on to say the idea of a personal god is alien to him and even says that he finds the concept "naive." He referred to himself as "a deeply religious non-believer, it's a new kind of religion."

Einstein was NOT a christian.

Answer 3

Dense matter is created by Fine Matter. Fine Matter is what you become when you die. It is the Spirit Realm. The Big Bang is nothing but the expansion of universal consciousness within our own Universe. Keep in mind, there are millions of Universes expanding and collapsing within themselves.

Creation has a process of birth death and rebirth. We learn from each other and adapt to new forms of life.

Space or the Void allows this to happen nurturing the fine matter intelligence (GOD) to create us, you and everything else. We are all part of the same. Just different camera angles of experiences reporting back to Creation.

This will not be the only Big Bang. The Big Bang will bang for Eternity. Peace.

Answer 4

From the Universe! All dense matter is a thought form created by the Universe, the invisible spirit, that it might touch itself. No big bang,

Answer 5

The answer depends on your definition of God. If you use the simple definition that God was the first thing that existed then you could either say God "created" the dense matter or you could say that the dense matter was always there and it is god. That's what the hindus believe, in a way.

If energy was always there then by definition it is god. The question I would have then is what prompted the energy to begin the "creation" process?

Answer 6

"Someone had to have made the dense matter?"

Why? You can say that God had to have created the energy than became the matter (E=MC2) but where did god come from? If you say that God was always there then why can't it be that the energy was always there? There doesn't necessarily have to be a beginning to the universe. That's a terrestrial way of thinking.

Answer 7

Personally in my opinion the "Big Bang" Theroy was just an explination that Einstien (a devout Christian, btw) came up with in order to explain the time when matter al of a sudden appeared in/as the universe.

Kindda like how Biologist use the "Precambrian Bang" as the time when the fossils of animals all started to appear.

Answer 8

Well you still have the same problem if you stick a sky faerie in there. You just delayed it a step with no reason to do that. See no you have to explain where God came from AND how he made it. That actually causes more problems that it solves.

If you are really curious what modern theory is Google "M Theory" and that may help you out. It includes a cause for the Big Bang and what was around before, though "before" really loses its meaning because time gets all mucked up.

Answer 9

Maybe it came from another universe. Maybe it wasn't dense matter before the big bang. I don't know. There is a lot about the nature of matter that we don't understand and we find out more every day.

Answer 10

First: The Universe wasn't created!!!

Personally I believe reality is ultimately mathematics (necessary logical truth) . It only looks like space and time because we see so little of it. Nothing is ever really created. The key here is a powerful selection effect (our existence ) which selects the portion of reality we find ourselves in. Only in very interesting portions (ones that appear as rapidly expanding space-time) of this vast infinite reality could we evolve.

Our understanding of reality is layered. You see the world in terms of large physical objects. But you are aware that those are illusions made up of atoms, and atoms in turn are made of smaller particles. Many believe that these so called "fundamental" particles are not fundamental but are built on a layer of mathematical objects called strings. My belief is that all reality including space-time itself is built upon mathematics and mathematics is what is truly fundamental.

The reason why we see top layers instead of lower layers is due to our inability to see all of the the details in the lower layers.

The reasons for my belief are way too involved to cover here so I will just post a link to something simple enough that you might understand it. I fear my actual reasons are likely to be well beyond your comprehension unless you have a very advanced gaduate physics background.

As mathematics ( necessary logical truth ) is fundamental and necessary it is not created. Existence simply equals necessary truth. Mathematics "just is" because it is necessary and tautologically simple ( Zero complexity ). But Mathematics does not create reality. Mathematics is reality.

The problem with the design hypothesis is your god needs to be more complex and hence more unlikely than the reality you are attempting to explain. Saying your god just is, still leaves a much bigger question than you had to begin with.

Just as a sideline unrelated to my argument : Since I have taken graduate level cosmology I will tell you how mass and energy are thought to have formed because most people do not know.

As most people are aware total mass/energy are thought to be conserved.

However most people do not know Gravitational potential energy is negative.

Rapid inflation results in large amounts of both normal mass/energy and gravitational potential energy which are thought to exactly balance each other.

The mass/energy you observe today formed in the first few milliseconds after the big bang as a direct result of the extremely rapid inflation which produces normal energy balanced with gravitational potential energy summing up to zero.

Answer 11

If you looking at it from a religious perspective it was called into existence by God there is science to support this. It was done by Robert V. Gentry, polonium halos. If your talking about it from a secular perspective (no GOd) then they don't know still working on it. It look as though you have an interest in this sort of stuff I would look at this video to learn more. there is allot of great things on this site other than this video if you care to look
God bless
