...amount of energy come into existence? And why do people say "conserve" energy when it supposedly can't be conserved but only changed? And is overpopulation really a problem additional matter is not actually being created but is only changing?

OK, now you are talking about 10th and 11th dimensions. How did these come into being? Where's the scientific evidence and what their evolutionary histories? Seems to prove that there are too many unknowns.

But the amount of energy is clearly finite and presumable potentially measurable it the tools to measure it existed. How can that really be when we are supposedly learning additional discoveries that the universe may be more vast that was first believed and that there maybe more dimensions than was previously thought? If that's the case, does that open the door to the existence of aliens? It would be rather arrogant to assume that we're the only forms of live in the universe if there are other unexplored "dimensions." Perhaps these aliens have found a way to create and destroy matter that we are unaware of. Or perhaps this explains why God has the superior wisdom and "magical" powers that you all ridicule? The truth is is that you don't know.

do you find it strange that atheists always say that christians have all these "unanswered questions" and stuff, but they seem to have more "unkowns" than christians do?? and they call us hypocrites!

You are confusing Atheists with : people who believe in evolution from a finite energy point .
Second this principle IF true , may still only apply to this Universe . Many if not most scientists believe their are other Universes .
Third , People say conserve energy when they mean : use less of energy that has already been converted into usable form ( oil , electricity , coal , etc.)
Fourth , the initial finite energy always was in existance , in this universe or another , in one form(s) or another .
Fifth , Over population is a social disaster . But there is enough matter in the unverse so that it would not become a problem for a VERY long time . Now if all the people could hammer their swords into plows , we could feed and clothe ALL the starving people .

We don't have to know where it came from. For example, if we support the big bang theory, we know that all energy and space came from a singularity, but how that singularity came to exist is not explained nor is it necessarily explainable. But so what? It still makes as much if not more sense than the argument that God has always been and that He existed before there was anything.
Energy can be inert or kinetic, etc. It is conserved when it is not frivolously altered from one form to another; for example, when liquid gasoline is burned to produce propulsion just so you can go to church.
And over-population is not a problem for the reason the mass that constitutes the human body is new mass. It's a problem because each new person is a drain on finite resources. The fact that no new mass (for resources) is being created actually re-enforces the overpopulation concern.

all of us know remember isn't eternal; we wreck a sprint it to create capability every day, in nuclear capability flora. (The sunlight destroys a impressive purchase extra.) in actuality, the 1st regulation would not restrict remember being created or destroyed in any respect; it is in basic terms approximately conservation of capability, with remember regarded as a sort capability can take. remember can become capability, and capability into remember. This does require that capability be accessible for the inception of the universe. (i'd use the word "creation" yet our atheist buddies would question it.) we do not know the place that capability got here from. it is achieveable that no remember regarded interior the universe till the preliminary inflation began, at which element the capability would desire to be switched over into debris of remember. for sure, there would have had to have been extremely some it. it extremely is, of direction, precisely the define of the great Bang. We theists are unfastened to view that because of the fact the creation. It left actual evidence at the back of, and it took place at a diverse time (which we are able to approximate) interior the previous. The concept that the universe (or its remember and capability) had "constantly existed" isn't one i've got seen propounded by applying the two atheists or theists, so your objection to it form of feels to narrate to no person's notions, anyhow.

Energy, matter, never created, never destroyed.
Very simple answer.
Hopefully you understand.
We'll see.
[[edit]] If you're just going to keep saying "but we don't really know, not really really REALLY", are you basically arguing that we'll never know anything for sure, that we'll never find all the answers, and that therefore the Judeo-Christian, Biblical, Abrahamic deity Yahweh exists?
[[edit again]] Huh... I must have missed the part where I said "I know exactly what happened before the Big Bang". Can you point it out to me? Or perhaps the part where I stated or implied that I have ALL the answers. Gosh... I hope you can because I just can't seem to find it.

Because oil can only be burned once, obviously. The initial and finite supply of energy came from the big bang. Best theory, in my opinion, is M-Theory which suggests two 10-dimensional branes made a quantum leap at an 11th dimensional level which caused the big bang, and all energy and matter in our ten-dimensional universe.
Edit:
Angel: I cannot teach you all of Physics in a single Answer's post. I'm sorry. But you can read about Physics and learn about it on your own. I recommend taking MIT's Open courseware on their website, they have a very comprehensive free e-course complete with video lectures. This will help you gain some insight into our physical universe.

it has always been.
because manufacturing energy that we can use is getting more difficult as we deplete our natural resources.
and, yes, overpopulation is really a problem. if all the matter on earth is converted to human form, then we have a real problem. overpopulation upsets the natural balance.

the people that believe the 1st Law of Thermodynamics support atheism also believe that energy/matter always existed

What is your question? Has it anything to do with atheism?
The amount of people on the earth now are converting masses of energy from a form we can use into a form we cannot use. Thats why we are in danger.
