Where did our static universe come from? Or even, where did God come from? The only answer I could find is that if the universe, if existence, had a starting point, there had to be a point before it...in other words, something came from nothing. That contradicts everything we are taught and every principle we base our knowledge off of. I think we can all come to the agreement that it is all beyond our grasp and it will remain that way for a very, very long time. No sense in arguing something we can't understand, I say live for the now and everything after.

Hope that wasn't too confusing.

Hmm.... I understand what you saying about something from nothing. It's difficult to believe that a quantum fluctuation could be responsible for the universe but difficulty in believing has never disproved anything. I think that Brane theory nicely explians where the energy and matter in the universe came from but it is even more difficult to prove than BBT. At this point all we have is theories but some of these theories are starting to knock at the door of the beginning. Just because all we have is theories is no reason to throw up your hands and give up.
