This may sound dumb, but how do we know we're even awake? This all could just be a dream.

The big bang theory is still a theory. It hasn't been proven yet. Just as God is a theory.

But if you want to dread on. Just ask yourself everytime. Where did it come from? "Matter just exists" That's such a easy statement to make but nothing just exists. Where did matter come from? Etc.. Etc.. We will probably never know.

I think you don't understand whata theory is. A theory is something that has been mathematically proven, although nobody can actually go back in time to see if there was a big bang.
There is no proof that a 'god' exists therefore it cannot be counted as a theory.
I agree. We could be in a realistic dream and never know.[DOUBLEPOST=1491968683][/DOUBLEPOST]Another theory I was reading up on.

The universe has a fixed amount of energy in it, and as this energy runs out,the universe slows down. In other words, there is a slow loss of heat, because heat is produced by the movement of energy particles. There is also a slowdown in movement, and supposedly, everything would eventually come to a halt.
This is kind of my theory, but that when it comes to a halt, it reverses to dicrease the size of the universe and eventually becomes so small on a subatomic level that there is no movement in the atoms, which causes another big bang to happend.
Now this is a 'loop' (C a l l u m)
But everytime the big bang happends it's unique. Our earth could be billions of miles from its current location, and our sun could be blue.
Humans would likely not exist as there was a very small chance that humans developed (Somewhat near 1/10000 of a percentage)
Therefore, any alive creatures would most likely look entirely different to todays living creatures, unrecognizeable creatures.

You've just changed what you're saying. Before you were saying that there's no begging of time. What if time never ended but it never began? Maths allows for infinities but you don't see infinities in nature. What if it never began. So, time bends back on itself, again and again, and everything has already happened, this conversation, and everything we've ever done it life and not just a few million times but infinitely.


Most people say, 'who cares.' Really, you should... This isn't the meaning of life stuff, the meaning of you, of the earth and everyone on it and how we got here. If it turns out nothing can make universes, that completes destroyed our understanding of the world. If it turns out the universe is an infinite loop, dying creating itself again, that means we don't understand time. In a way, we're all kind of infinite and living forever, over and over.


The most profound question we can ask. Not why are we here, or is there a god or what is consciousness but how did anything get here? There's no real answer and nobody knows, everything we could know might be wrong.
I havent changed what I said lol. There was no beginning of time

now i'm not an atheist,but then again there's no one answer to a single question,but maybe just believing hard enough in the likes of God makes him actually real,and you know that most of the people wouldn't care about doing anything or "sinning" if they werent taught about their respective religions.
tldr:we'll never completely understand how the universe was concieved

This is a common misconception. We will eventually find out how the universe was created and understand its powers.

I reckon the big bang will be confirmed within 10k years.

The problem about discussing what is going to happen at the end and beginning of our universe is that we are assuming that time is linear, and as proven by mathematical theories regarding black holes, it is possible to stretch time with enormous gravity and bending of light to "teleport" into the future by a couple of seconds, but this is only if you are close to the event horizon and manage to escape the pull of the black hole.

Thus I think a discussion on the origin of our universe is entirely inappropriate to discuss as we do not have any basis or grounds to do so.
