That is not what the Big Bang Theory states.
Quote:I've heard some physicists say stuff like maybe the universe was sneezed out of a giant creature or maybe some kid in another dimension discarded a science experiment.
Which physicists, and are you sure they weren't saying it as a joke, or to make a point about improbability / improvability?
Quote:Is our finite brain capable of comprehending infinity?
Of course not.
Quote:If we are just a walking collection of atoms obeying the laws of physics and evolutionary biology we shouldn't be conscious, should we?
Why not? It depends entirely how you define consciousness.
Quote:There is possibly a limit to what our finite human brains are capable of comprehending and perhaps the universe and it's existence exceeds this limit.
True, no one human brain could hold that knowledge. As a collection of brains, we are doing pretty well though. With enough people, I see no reason why the entirety of the universe couldn't be understood one day.
Quote:There is no direct evidence that god exists but an objective observer cannot rule out the possibility 100%. Perhaps god is the universe? Or perhaps it's all just pointless random physics and chance?
Perhaps, though I'm not sure why you are asking this question.
