look, my thing is that religion and god is not the best answers we have. To say that god is the first cause, and leave it at that, is to beg the question and just cry to stop asking. "who created the universe: "god", than who created god, which is far more intricate and powerful than the universe. So that's doing is pushing the question back one, only to get back to the original question. That's wehre most say, "god is out of time" like time is some kind of physical thing!! that's my idea.

There is a lot of studies going on right now about how big bangs have cycles. Everything comes together via gravity, and then it gets compact very small to a point where it just explodes, because of all the pressure, gases, heat, and energy moving around. Then we have a big bang, everything expands and then will come back together at some point, and another big bang, and so on.... So the universe has to be infinite with no "first cause". Since a first cause would only raise another first cause.

stop trying to start a religious debate. it diminishes the value of your previous statements and is quite rude. It's fine to discuss theories, but wrong to bash others without proof.

Studying Type 1a Supernovae, it has been determined that the Universe is not only expanding, but it is doing so exponentially.This imples that this is the first, and last, go around, as oppsoed tothe big crunch, whereas this could be the second, fifth, or billionth time around.

the movie's too quiet

Yeah. and maybe the universe while it expands as we understand, it may actually shrink on a 4th dimensional sphere. And that makes time negative avery odd universes and positive every even universes..

The Question is that there are always more questions regarding how much we don't know each time we know something new

unless there was more than one Big Bang, which is a very prominent idea right now.the universe may collapse upon itself over and over again...obviously over a crazily long period of time.

in all matter and non-matter (energies)
