For Big Bang believers, how did something (or, for that matter, everything) come from (originally) nothing?

Answer 1

There is no answer for that. All the big ban theory says is that the universe is seen to be expanding, so it must have been smaller in the past and if you go far enough back into the past you get zero size. It isn't so hard to understand. How it could have started is hard to understand. That is why the theory says nothing about how it started.

Answer 2

I, for one do believe that the big bang originated from a void. It seems ridiculous but how else could it have been? Maybe, for unknown reason a great stress formed in the void and the singularity that lasted for 10-43 second was only the life span of that unknown quantity before it's heat began to be sucked up by the bitter cold, at that time matter and time came into existence. If one can believe that a point that has no dimension could hold all of the energy and matter that now is the universe why not believe that, from a great void, it originated.

Answer 3

This question is based on a misunderstanding of the big bang. The big bang has no cause and according to quantum theory needs no cause. The universe was brought into existence by Quantum uncertanity- it's a very complex principle that I'm not qualified to explain. Essentially the universe has and needs no cause.

You asked how it came from originally nothing. It didn't. There was no "originally"- many people wonder what happened before the big bang, but this makes no sense under quantum physics. There was no time before the big bang. There was nothing- no empty void or whatever. We don't know what happened in the first planck time of the universe (that's the msallest posssible instant of time).

And no, the matter/energy in the universe has NOT existed eternally. It has only existed for 13.7 billion years- the age of the universe. (It existed eternally under the od steady-state theory, but that has now been debunked).

As for God, I find that hard to beleive- if God did it, what made him? Some people say he has no cause- but then why does the universe need a cause.

Answer 4

The big bang theory is simply an extension of what we see happening now (the expansion of the universe) back in time to where the universe was a singularity. The theory says nothing about what happened before the big bang or how the singularity came into existence. One of the ideas proposed is that the singularity came from a previous big bang that turned into a so-called big crunch from which our current universe came and that this cycle repeats and may have been going on forever. Another idea is that there are multiple universes and that ours is just one of many universes expanding or being static (not expanding) or collapsing.

It is a great question and one that we don't know the answer to. The more discoveries we make, the closer we will get to answers to questions like this.

Answer 5

I keep running into this question from believers in religion. First, we know that the big-bang is a viable theory because of the highly accurate and reliable field equations; Einstein's General Relativity and Max Planck's quantum mechanics, which describe events up to the time of 10^-43 seconds after the big-bang singularity. These field equations make highly verifiable predictions about the nature and forces that drive our universe and everything in it. The predictions of these two field equations have been determined reliable in countless experiments and observations. Why then should they be wrong about the origin and nature of singularity? Moreover, background radiation uniformity and analysis supports both the big-bang origin of the universe and the rapid inflation of its expansion. So, you see, scientists are not just simply "guessing" about how things occurred.

All matter didn't come from the singularity, in my opinion. What came from the big-bang was high-energy, low entropy, quantum undulations. It was the rapid inflation that drew out these minuscule undulations to the macro, that led directly to the formation of matter, gravity, the slowing of relative speed and, ultimately phase transitions which likely resulted in the breaking of near perfect symmetry. My guess is that our three-spatial dimensions plus time simply fell out of the original unified 11 dimensions due to the breaking of symmetry.

All one has to do is look around at the universe, our world, and nature to see that our universe is full of fractal patterns reflected at many, many levels which describe the forces acting on our universe from the beginning to now and infinity. I believe that there are fractal patterns which, on a larger scale, accurately describe the singularity and evens before and after it. One just has to recognize the patterns in the sky and connect them to the duality.

Answer 6

the theory of the big bang doesn't state that everything came from "nothing". its believed that at the early stages of the universe every thing was compacted in one source of energy. there was only on body of gravity and elements. its gravity became so great that it compacted to the point of explosion. when it exploded the particles along with super heat from radiation started to form the galaxy's, stars, planets, etc. a found piece of research helps with this theory. its that, when tested for movement from other galaxy's we found that all the galaxy's are actually moving away from one central point in the universe.

it is also believed that this could have happened more than once. it is believed that all the galaxy's are slowly moving towards a center point of gravity and eventually everything will collide back together and restart. or all the galaxy's are moving away from each other and will just fade out into the boundaries of the universe.

Answer 7

The Big Bang Theory's purpose is not to explain how the Universe started, its purpose is to explain how the universe evolved. That's a common misconception.

Scientists have no idea how that very dense point of matter came into existence.

Answer 8

Same sort of question: How did you come into being? You came from nothing.

You Creationists are hardheaded. You think that "God" just did stuff, and there's no logical real forces at work behind His hands.

You are also arrogant enough to tell me that God created everything on a "daily" schedule. I say, "Who are you to dictate God's schedule, or dictate it to me. He creates and destroys in His own good time, and by His own "watch". And if He chose to let things develop and flourish after a few billion years, instead of 6,000, what is "time" to an infinite God?

Creation is Creation. I don't deny God or science. You, on the other hand go around with one eye open and one eye shut.

Answer 9

i believe in M theory....logical, and with it you can essentially answer "WHAT" came before the big bang...the prob with the big bang theory alone, is that all the religious quackpots always asked "well what came before the big bang?" and scientists never had an answer....couldnt get past the point of singularity..m theory has the answer....

Answer 10

"the place did count number come from initially?" count number is a variety of ability that became extra thermodynamically favorite as quickly as the toddler universe had cooled sufficiently. "the place did that count number that brought about the vast bang come from initially" There wasn't any, meaning that count number wasn't the reason for the vast bang. count number is a made from the vast bang, no longer any incorrect way around. "became it merely floating there?" No. there became no "there" to drift in previously the vast bang experience. Time and area as all of us comprehend it did no longer exist till after the vast bang handed off. "because of the fact if it particularly is the respond i've got faith as though technology particularly hasn't defined lots in any respect." thankfully for everyone, your answer isn't what technology surely teaches in any respect. "Is it conceivable a divine being placed it there?" conceivable? optimistic. yet till there is information indicating that it got here approximately that way, there isn't any rational reason to think of so. "Am I inquiring for ineffective coaching?" on no account. What you're asking are the styles of questions which would be responded via taking astronomy courses. pass do this. learn and learn with regard to the cosmos. it particularly is sweet stuff. "Is the belief of God (gods) surely a threat?" the potential for the belief of gods is merely as conceivable because of the fact the belief of unicorns, dragons, and gremlins. that may no longer poking exciting; it particularly is retaining actuality. "and no person can particularly clarify it." surely, sure, they could. pass take a school point course in astronomy or cosmology. you will get your solutions and the information backing them up. The solutions are obtainable; you merely have not seen all of them yet. "as quickly as I stated count number brought about the vast bang it became because of the fact i did no longer choose to describe the entire innovations-set of a condensed universe exploding" A condensed universe increasing isn't an analogous factor as count number inflicting the universe. How are the two in any respect comparable? sure, the main suitable factor for you would be to proceed to learn.
