How does quantum tunneling account for the laws of physics if those laws didn't exist before the universe?

Question

If the Universe had 0-information before "10-43" seconds after it's creation or before the big bang-singularity, then how did it acquire it's high information state INCLUDING the 4 fundamental LAWS of PHYSICS.....without the input of an intelligence/Creator?......American astrophysicist Righard Gott states "There is an infinite LOSS OF INFORMATION about events before "10-43 seconds"...So how does stable laws of physics POP out of nowhere from probable quantum energy? ....Or is "quantum tunneling" just another "FAITH-BASED" religion masquerading as science..Or just fanciful thinking akin to Snow White and the 7 dwarfs?

Answer 1

Since we don't yet understand the exact mechanism for complete understanding of the creation of the universe, I think we MUST stop looking and accept that the Spaghetti Monster did it. Or maybe your supreme Ghost did it (notice that I properly capitalized the "G" to differentiate your Ghost from all the false ghosts).

Answer 2

Quantum Tunneling is not faith based. It is measurable in the lab in repeatable experiments. That is what makes it scientific fact. The transistors in the computer you typed the question on rather prove the point, since the electrons manage to jump the gate in conduction mode. Without quantum tunneling you computer wouldn't work.

The physical laws we know of today are the ones we observe around us.

The observation that stars and galaxies are moving apart from each other leads to the conclusion that they were closer together in the past. This isn't a complex thing. That is the big bang summarized.

The idea that there was 0 information that there before 10E-43 seconds is hypothetical. There may have been some other state that preceded the compact state that preceded the less compact state we have now. We don't see information or energy (same thing) getting destroyed. It's a stretch to assume it happened in the early universe, but it might have and when there is a testable prediction based on this hypothesis, it can be tested and turned into a theory or a proven false hypothesis.

Faith doesn't come into it.

Answer 3

well, the thing before the big bang was the whole universe. no one really knows that the laws didn't exist before the universe. and the laws aren't that complicated, and were just the way the universe formed. I do think that humans try to find logic and a meaning in everything, where as somethings are just there and true. an example of this is the dual nature of light. light can be any of the two if you examine it closely. The string theory sort of states that laws of physics do not hold true everywhere and have to be modified. the laws dont POP out of nowhere. gravity is defined by special relativity and by newton, which somewhat breaks down when you examine small particles. the other laws surround gravity. the laws were just always there. Quantum tunneling is not based on religion.

Answer 4

Well, I hope missing out on the first 10^-43 seconds of the big-bang doesn't keep you up at night. I really don't see where quantum tunneling has to do with Intellegent Creation. I don't recall Christ coming down the road from Area-51 with the 4 Laws of Physics on a tablet.

BTW: there is no assurance that there are only 4 fundamental laws. Only 110 years ago, physicists were certain that they knew all they needed to know with Maxwells Laws......if only those people would stop exposing uranium ores to picture film.

Answer 5

i don;t know. but it would be interesting to find out about it all

going with the god explanation would take all the fun out of it


some people like to find things out. some people like to gorge themselves on cheese. are you gonna try and ruin it for them too?
i dont see why you feel the need to troll around here... maybe you want to stop people finding out things that will make your life that little more pointless?


(go find out about tunnelling, it's real and measurable)
