Besides the multiverse theory, there are several models going around: Reinhartd 's cyclic theory, Smolin's Fecund theory, Penrose's Cosmological Conformal Cyclic theory, and the Hawking-Krauss' model of a universe from nothing.
Unlike religion which claims the absolute truth with no evidence supporting such claim, science hasn't determined which model best fits the data. But slowly, it will.
