So, I’m a spiritual person but I’m not particularly religious. I believe in evolution and science and all of that. So, the big bang theory implies that ‘the universe began from a singular state of infinite density’. Where did this singular state guy come from in the first place?
Just wondering if theres like an explanation for it or anything.

That's the question we're all trying answer these days...
Maybe that singular state density was time and when it unravelled the universe began and the clocks started ticking. Maybe nothing created nothing. Maybe,maybe, maybe, we don't know.

It came from all the mass in the Universe, according to science, which has always existed and will always exist, it only changes form from a singlarity into stars and galaxies.
Religion says it came from God.
Let's face facts. U-235 doesn't exist in vast quanities naturally. So Lawerence Livermore had to make it and provide it to Oppenhemier's people who turned it into an A-Bomb.
So it is entirely possible God had to provide the mass.
I mean even science has no explaination as to where, initially, the mass of the universe came from.
We also have to face another fact of life. The US Patent Office, by statute, won't even consider an application for a Patent for a "perpetual motion device."
Which is what the Big Bang, Big Crunch theory is supposed to be.
Science says it's an automated perpetual motion system.
Expansion, gravity well contraction, fusion and expansion.

My family is very academic as well as religious, especially my brother. My mom asked this question, the bible's 7 days and evolution, and I now have a greater respect to my brother because of his answer. The bible says God created the world in seven days (most Christians don't interpret the bible in it's exact words). The world was only then starting, the measure of time of the Bible is not the same as the measure of time we have. It was man who said that there are 60 sec./min, 60 min/hr 24hr/day etc. The time that the Bible uses in the creation story is relative to nothing definite. One day can mean a million years, a billion, whatever. Also, God uses other instruments to carry out his work. He does not always deal with man directly. He is the greater force who, through the process of evolution, fulfilled a plan of creation.
I hope it helped...

The same question can be asked of God. Where did he come from? You might answer, "He was always there." Well, people of science are entitled to the same answer. The elements that caused the 'big bang' were always there. Thus, we have the age-old argument/debate about how the universe began. Was it scientific or spiritual?

The most supported theory at the moment is that our universe emerged from a singularity that was formed when a previous universe collapsed. And so on and so forth. And when you say, ok, where did all THOSE universes come from - hey, give us a break, it took 100 years to figure THAT out. :)

Believing in the Big Bang IS a religion. Look how agitated some "scientists" get when you say that you do not believe in that theory.
It's today's religion - with as many bad effects to science progress at the catholic church had at the time of Galileo Galilei.
One has not to be religious to accept that God has created the universe - and that he is so omnipotent and wise that he did not even need the "tool" of a human-invented Big Bang to do it.

Before time zero nothing existed.
The nothing had a potential and the potential had to be finite.
The result was a single space-time pulse of minimum size and duration that resulted in the universe we see to-day.

i am a spiritual person as well...there are certain things which are beyond human intelligence...god has made humans in such a way that we dont understand each and everythin ...i donno whether this falls in that category..time will asnwer
but as someone already said...that singular state guy was done by god...big bang was done by god...not even a single atom moves without his knowledge
God bless

You explain infinity to me and I'll take a shot at this question.
