I have heard of a few scientific theories that aim to explain the origin of our universe that I think are interesting. There is String Theory, for example.. Or the theory where the universe started from different, smaller explosions... Or a multiverse theory where our universe may be one of many universes out there that formed in the same way galaxies are born but on a bigger scale. There's even Simulation Theory that people like Elon Musk find possible. Do any of you subscribe to other theories aside from the mainstream Big Bang Theory as an explanation for the origins of our universe? Let me know what you think
All are theories and can never be proven with 100 percent certainty, unless someday we create a universe based on one of those theories in a lab.
You have to start somewhere though. We were going to be curious about space and how it works eventually. I think it says something about humanity that we've been able to send people into space without fully understanding it.
Absolutely nothing whatsoever is % certain. There is no actual need for % certainty. In general the preponderance of evidence leans heavily one way or the other and that's good enough for our purposes. Rejecting the best available explanations when the evidence for them is excellent never ends well.
The BB theory fits well with most aspects of observed reality and where the abstraction leaks there are reasonable hypotheticals to explain it. The BB theory is subject to refinement and isn't as settled as, say, the Theory of Evolution, but it is the accepted cosmological model and is very unlikely to be totally discarded due to future discoveries.
One common misconception about the BB is that it explains the origin of the universe. It doesn't; it assumes the existence of matter and energy as a starting point (though not time as we know it). It really just describes what we can observe about the past universe back to our event horizon and the limits of our mathematical models -- and to the "beginning" of time. It inherently can say nothing about what, if anything, lies beyond those boundaries. And it does not require a First Mover or other "cause" because those concepts have no meaning "before" time.
Ever read the bible?
Never read it, but I think I know how it ends
The bible's creation story only replaces a natural creation with a god creation which answers nothing and only asks the same question, i.e. where did god come from and an endless regression.
@Bobby9 the question was.... ARE THERE ANY OTHER THEORIES? So that is another theory sherlock, master of deduction.
@Bobby9, @TheoryNumber3 always thought it was open ended. Like a stupid first person video game.
@Bobby9, @TheoryNumber3, @Mortal I read worse. At least the bible one is simple. Six days.... bam! The ones with the dripping butthole or the exploding asshole come to mind. And the turtles and the serpents and the this not real and the aliens, etc, etc, etc.
@Bobby9, @TheoryNumber3, @Mortal, @jlynn37 You may had to define "natural creation". And of course the definition will not make me give a fuck during the rest of my term in this plane so....
@TheoryNumber3 never cared much myself but question was about other theories available.
@GipsyOfNewSpain Your opinion is noted as are the rest of ours. Thanks for your input.
@Mortal what part of mortal you can't identify with? Rant is finished. I simply sugested a different explanation of the universe as it was asked about. Answer to my question was simply yes or no, agree or not agree, liked or not liked. Act like a christian or not act like a christian, on or off, + or -. "Rant" extended for your benefit.
@Bobby9 So now you call yourself an Expert on the Origin of the Universe!!! Which one are You? The Fart of the Big Asshole? The Shit of the Great Dump?
