Im aware that this question doesn't have an answer but maybe Im missing some hints.

Also this question, which I consider to be the most essential ! ! is not oftently asked or talked about enough and I think that this inconceivable mystery should be talked about more without answering with superstitions because its so essential !

How did energy, matter whatever you wanna call it came to exist out of nothing ? or maybe its our logic that makes us ask the question incorrectly...

Thanks

  1. Matter and energy are virtually the same with Einstien's equation E=mc^2.  Matter was created from the energy of the big bang.  Where did that energy come from?  It could have existed forever, in parallel dimensions perhaps? But the idea of energy exising forever, seems foreign to our short lived minds, but that doesn't mean it's not possible to have energy existing forever.  It's hard to think of infinity when we are used to everything having a begining and an end.


  2. I have the correct answer. It is definitely the correct answer. I will give you my answer then the tangible evidence. We understand time because everything we know has a beginning. This question is part of a systematic corruption of the minds of individuals by asking question "@Chelsey If its a god, how did it came to be in the first place?". So time governs everything we know, but in the life after death we will see that time was simply a token, to test man to see which of us is best in deeds. So Allah, the Lord of the Universe has always been there. Our understanding of time limits us to believing that everything has a beginning, which is not entirely wrong but Allah Has always been there, outside our perception of time. The Hereafter is infinite, never-ending which means there is no time. Matter was created by Allah, whatever He wills, He says BE and it is. Now for the evidence, check out the links below. Watch them all and keep your mind open. Be logical. Reason well

  3. we can create value  from empty set..this is math if you understand what im tryin 2 tell u..

  4. I've thought of this before too and there's no real answer for that to our understanding. but u have to think that our laws maybe and could possibly be wrong somehow looking at history. so following the scientific law of how matter cannot be created or destroyed could be possibly wrong b/c the big bang itself defies some theories and science before

  5. Go ahead and give me a thumbs down, but unless you can give me a better answer, it's  God

  6. It never came to exist as it has always existed. I am a great believer in the "Steady State Theory" which explains the Universe never had a beginning & will never have an ending. Instead it has & will always exist for infinity. Now I know the current accepted theory is the "Big Bang Theory", but in my opinion it is totally wrong & will be proven so one day !

  7. maybe it's because God exists. it doesn't matter which religion.. something bigger than this- bigger than us, had to get it started. just my opinion.

  8. I don't know.  If it's true that nothing can be lost or created then everything must always have been there.  

    Also if entropy always increases, how could life develop? Life turns disorder into order.

  9. Maybe this universe emerged from a different or previous universe, since you can't create something from nothing.

    EDIT: and maybe laws of physics that apply to this universe don't apply to a previous or different universe.

  10. Good question. I think the answer may lie with quantum physics, or perhaps M-Theory. If you know enough about quantum physics, you'd be aware that "empty space" isn't actually empty - far from it. On the very smallest scales - the Planck scale (an unbelievably small distance) - space is seething and churning with subatomic particles spontaneously appearing out of nothing and then annihilating with their negative partner (e.g. an electron and a positron).

    Our universe may simply have been an instance where energy kind of sprang forth from "empty space" but kept on going - in a runaway fashion. I'm not a physicist so I can't explain it to you very well, but I think I've described how many physicists imagine how our universe came about. Inflation Theory, which describes the birth of our universe, strongly implies the idea that matter and energy can spring forth from essentially nothing. The concept is also known as "chaotic inflation" because it is an endless process of matter appearing from nothing.

    To summarise, the idea that matter/energy cannot be created may actually be wrong.

  11. well a new branch of string theory is bringing forth an idea that says there are multiple universes...  and that what we call matter and energy is a product of the collision of two or more of these universes.  this lead to a new universe with its own laws of physics.  this seems to work because the physics of our universe seem to break down at the time of the big bang. " which ironically was neither big nor made a bang"

    but of coarse this only leads to more questions and leads me to a chilli peppers lyric "the more i see the less i know". but i think the essence of your question thus far is out of human reach. we have stood on the shoulders of giants to glimpse at the vastness of the multiverse and thus far we have gained only more questions.  

    if god created it who created god?  to sum it all up we humans are very very very tiny little specks of dust that are attempting to understand things more then 10000000000000000000000000000000000 times the size of them selves. we are pretty d**n special and while these questions too run deep in my mind ...but we have to know more before our minds can make that journey but i commend you for using your brain.

  12. I just need to question your question, if I may. You asked Chelsey how did a god come to be in the first place?

    But why does a god need to have been created? The only gods that have ever been created have been created by humans. It needs to be asked, can humans create anything as significant as a god, which is, even by non-Christological definitions above human?

    Dawkins, in his wacky book about watchmakers, postulates that a being can only create something as complicated as itself. In itself, this is a fallacy, but nonetheless, assuming it as a truism for a moment- that would mean the only thing capable of creating a god would be a god, or that god itself (a paradox).

    Yet, if we believe in matter, space and energy being eternal- having always existed, then why not a god, or The God?

    It is a logical fallacy to conclude that anything that exists must have a higher cause, a creator, on the sole premise that it exists.

    .................

    Anyhooooo to answer your question, if nothing can be created or lost, and only transformed, (according to the interesting question you posed), then we are all in big trouble! :)

    There are two main views on why everything is here. The universe belched violently and everything came out.

    Or God, the First Cause, Who has always existed, did it.

  13. God.
