Did the Big Bang happen?

[Peebothuhlu]

I’m gonna try to reply to everyone who asked me stuff while I was out lol. I’m tired so I apologize if I miss anything.

1. On the whole whether finite or infinite, the universe does not “require God” to explain the science: I agree. I see God less and less as the ‘thing’ that fills in the gaps these days and take a much more purely fideistic approach to faith. So my asking these questions is, legitimately, not faith-driven. I am curious about the science.

2. Do I think the universe is finite or infinite? Um… I have no idea. I like the idea of the universe possibly being curved and therefore being a four-dimensional sphere. But even with such a model where if you keep going in one direction theoretically you could end up back in the same place, that doesn’t mean the universe is finite from a time perspective.

3. I like the theory of quantum eliminating the singularity causing an infinite state of time before the Big Bang. It is much simpler to my mind than trying to figure out what “happened” “before time”.

4. When I said always I was speculating a universe that has existed forever. Infinite time.

Hello!

Welcome to the forums and stuff.

I've been following along and learing stuff from other posters.

Here's something I've heard/read back a while.

So, you may of may not be familiar with the 'Rest State' of electrons? (I'm also not sure of positrons and neutrons have 'Rest stastes, either).

The comentor made the point that this 'Rest stat seem to 'Just be'. You know, one of those things the diety beatifyers latch onto and keep calling "Fine Tuning".

Well said comentor then suggested... what if it ISN'T fixed? What happens if somthing causes that energy level to change? As in an electron loses even more of its energy 'some how'?

The conjecture is that said atom would hence change its rather fundamental properties... potentially leading to a cascade effect reaching even deeper into the 'String level' or reality.

VORP!

Suddenly you have a 'New' state of elemental 'Being' resetting everything outwards from itself at the speed of light.

Indeed, the talker mentioned that because said change front is moving at the speed of light we never see it comming if, indeed, such a thing were even occuring.

I think they then moved on to explaining why some Cosmologists suggest that as the heat death of everything draws on, that the potential for such a 'Resettting tear' becomes more imaginable.

Whole ;New' realities being born in such 'Tears' in our fading, stretching, freezing, dark exhausted heat death future.

Hope I haven't butchered the memory too badly. Perhaps some one more learned on the forums can give the whole thing a better explanation?

All the best.

Cheers.

Not at work.
