Where did matter and what not from the big bang come from to begin with. Please help before my head explodes?

Question

I have thought about this for years and no one has been able to give me an awsner. All this talk about evolution and creationism. I just want to know how all this stuff just appeared. I know how the universe was fromed by the big bang. But where did that stuff come from? For creationists who say god created it then where did god come from?

Here are some example awsners
MOM : God just is there should be no questioning it. We were not meant to understand.

Nope sorry mom doesnt cut it

Biology professor: Well were not quite sure yet but we will soon figure it out.

Nope doesnt cut it

Many other people: Just dont worry about it or think about it. Who cares.

Nope sorry I have to.

Anyone else have a better awnser to help relive me of my pain.

Answer 1

The reason scientists can't answer this question is because of gravity. The popular idea is that Newton discovered gravity because of a falling apple. What Newton really discovered was the gravitational force.

There are five fundamental physical forces in the universe. besides gravity, there is electricity, magnetism, the strong nucleur force and the weak nucleur force. All the forces can be equated to each other except one - gravity. When scientists try and calculate the properties of super massive objects like black holes, their equations fall apart because gravity can't be factored into things. The universe supposedly began as an object just a bit larger than a grape which suddenly expanded. At the precise moment of expansion (and presumable before), all five forces were united into a single force. Again, gravity can't be described in terms of the other forces, so scientists can only say what happened just a couple milliseconds after the forces began to split apart once the expansion began. Of course, no one knows what things were like when all the forces were united, so this is why scientists don't know what existed before the "big bang".

The next great discovery in physics will be the unification of all five forces. "String theory" is an attempt to unite things, but has met with limited success. String theory says the universe contains 11 dimensions, and higher dimensions exist right besides lower dimensions. One theory states this universe began when two of the dimensions collided. The point of contact was the original "singularity" which then expanded into the known universe.

This, together with countless religious explanations, is all anyone knows about what existed before the universe began.

Answer 2

why are you asking a biology professor a cosmology question? Ooops, I'm supposed to be answering, not asking. The Big Bang is the limit of our observation in this universe, we cannot, at least currently, see "before" it. There are several ideas for what came before. One view is that there could be a cyclical expansion and contraction of universes. Big bangs happen, universes expand and then they contract and collapse into a singularity followed by big bangs. There need not be an origin for this, it could have been going on forever. Another idea is that there are multiple universes and always have been. With each universe on a membrane, like a slice of bread in a loaf. When membranes touch this could scramble the universes- causing big bangs. We do not know. Sometimes in life there are things we just don't know. What we can show is that there are reasonable alternatives to supernatural causes- there are a number of possible natural causes. Furthermore, there are possible causes that would involve something always being here and never created, just at the Creationists say that God was always here and never created but without the need to invent a being that we cannot possibly define or fathom.

Answer 3

I have had the same question you have all my life, and would rather not wait till I die to find out. I have done extensive research into the feild; sadly I am still searching for the answer and am beginning to feel that the only way I will ever learn is to figure it out on my own. many people scientists willl start with 'a minute moment after the big bang ...' but that is the closest I have ever come to an answer, a minute moment. string theory gives a slightly different answer with the same ramifications, that our universe is one of many in a megaverse and the big bang was the result of two universes colliding. the problem here is that there is no explanation for the megaverse. Creationism just seems like the easy way out to me and it has no logical or scientific basis behind it, I just cant believe that a divine being existed before the universe or time! this probably wasnt much help, but I do wish you the best of look on your quest.

Answer 4

Evolutionists have a great deal of trouble with this question. One evolutionist eventually stated that the first matter came from nothing.
Tell me, does it take more faith to believe that an intelligent being created the universe or that nothing created the universe? Personally, I don’t have enough faith to believe in evolution.
There is not a “cookie cutter” answer for this question. What you have to do is examine the evidence supporting each theory for yourself and then decide what you believe.
I personally believe that God created the universe and everything in it, because I have examined the evidence supporting both creation and evolution and creation makes more sense and has A LOT LESS contradictory and unsound evidence supporting it.
When it comes to God’s existence, I am reminded that God is infinite. Nobody created God. God is the beginning, and He is the end. I know that this is difficult for us to understand, because we are finite, or temporary, creatures. We tend to believe only in things that we can see, touch, taste, and hear. However, I think that you would agree that there has to be a beginning somewhere. God is the most reasonable explanation for that beginning. Like I said before, I don’t have enough faith to believe in evolution.

Answer 5

I often think about things like your problem. And as everyone knows, there really is no definite answer to your question. However, I can offer you a few words of guidance:

I find myself to be an agnostic (I do not know if God exists, he may or may not.) I feel that I do not have to make a decision that god does or does not exist. Who am I to declare such a thing?! I believe that we, as humans, have the tendancy to always have to know the answer to everything or be able to point out the cause of every single thing in the universe. I think that this is trivial and should not be focused on so much. You will be much more productive to just understand that we are not capable of having an answer to this at the moment, nor does it look like we will ever have the answer to this in the generally near future.

Basically, I believe in leading a good life. I feel that it is important to do good for others, as well as yourself. We have to realize that it is essential to mankind that we learn to cooperate with others and realize the effects of mutual interdependency.

It is not our job to decide on such a pointless question. Rather, live a happy and fulfilling life, whatever that entails to you. Try to do everything you want, and you will have no regrets when your time comes.

Answer 6

Ok, good question. First of all, there WASN'T a "big bang." If you think about it at all, the whole theory makes NO sense!! As a Christian, I believe that God created everything. And I don't just believe that because that's what I'm "supposed" to believe. I believe it because it is honestly the only explanation for how everything got here (including us!) that makes any sense!

As to where God came from, I know it's not the kind of answer that you want, but the Bible says that He is, He was, and He always will be! To say it in a more up-to-date way, God is God, He always has been, and He always will be! God didn't "come" from anywhere. It doesn't make sense to our human brains, but God had no beginning, and He will never have an end.

Hope that helps! God bless.

Answer 7

You can study this stuff until you're blue in the face. I grew up with the very same "I want to know how it all began" attitude.

Trouble is, even the best minds out there can only speculate, hypotheize or theorize. There's still little evidence compared to the vastness of the universe, that we take the fractional shards of information and construct entire "realities" around them. But, in the last analysis, they can be much like a house of cards.

I'm not surprised by your dissatisfaction with the theories in this branch of science -- nor your disaffection with the religious explanation.

But there are lots of things that were explained well by theory, supported by growing numbers of observations and measurements, so much so, that they formed the cornerstone of the technology that enables us to reach into space to learn more. So, where you think we seem to be inadequate or ill-defined in our science, we keep an open mind (even if it seems to you to be too wide open) and apply all the educated logic at our disposal to try to get at the truth of the matter.

I persist in my personal belief that this is all part of God's Creation, and our pursuit of more knowledge of what He's done is an expression of love, admiration and awe. The Light is out there. Keep learning, pursuing and believing.

Answer 8

That's all we got. The reason why the theories exist and why religion exists is because there IS no definite reason why it came up. It's really what you believe in.

There's String Theory, which says that all matter is energy, which coalesed into matter at some point. Then, where did that energy come from, is the next question. We don't know.

There's religion, that a supernatural being(s) created everything, and that they don't have a beginning.

Answer 9

Wow, this is deep. Okay, the way I see it is this: Genesis tells how God created a world out of nothing... as a Christian this belief is based on Faith of unseen things. It is kind of like walking into a room, you see a chair there and decide you are tired and want to sit down. You have never sat in that chair before, but you have faith that when you sit on that chair it is going to hold you up. As a Christian, my faith leads me to believe that God exists, from where he came I don't know, but, I have faith that when I die and go on to eternal life, my questions will be answered. Then again, in the scheme of things, I will probably not care anymore at that point. It is our human nature to question the unseen things...
As far as creation goes, the Bible says that God spoke existence into being, literally... Genesis - Chapter 1.
I know, I know, doesn't cut it in your mind... but it is what I have to hold on to.

Answer 10

The only anser is that nobody knows. I would like to know as much as you do but as of now there is no anwer. Some have hypothsized that it was a form of energy which becae matter but then where did the energy come from. I suggest you keep searching for answers in a scientific way and some day you may find out.
