Since this is considered to be less than the planck length, a human egg is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times larger than what is midpoint between the egg of the universe and the planck length.
The bolded claim cannot be substantiated by science. The problem is our physics breaks down before we can model the actual bang of the big bang. Big bang theory only describes the aftermath of the bang. It doesn't say what banged, why it banged, how big the thing that banged was etc.
We know that at one time the universe was smaller than an atom...our physics takes us back that far. We don't know that it was ever smaller than a planck length.
That doesn't change my point any.
