Question for atheists

I've always been curious, what created the ball of energy (or whatever it is) that exploded? Aka Big Bang theory. I mean, it's just weird. There had to have been nothing at one point right? What put something into this universe?

  • I'd say that this is a question for scientists, not atheists.

    • I don't really consider myself an atheist, I believe there is something more powerful than us out there but I believe it can be explained by science. to answer your question, I believe we're in somewhat of time loop. I believe that the universe was created by a massive blackhole that exploded, as you should know there is a blackhole in the middle of our galaxy. also there are blackholes scattered throughout the universe. these will, in the future, inevitably consume our entire universe and leave nothing but a massive blackhole, this starting the process over again. sorry if there any typos, errors or anything I left out. I wrote this on my phone.

    • Wow you people are ridiculous cause the universe was obviously created by JESUS!

    • Idk. No one knows. And "god did it", is not a valid answer.

      • To be honest, I'm not entirely sure. But I'm rather more comfortable admitting I don't know rather than jumping to faithful conclusions. Also, The Big Bang theory doesn't say it exploded. It rather expanded. Atoms then formed as the universe cooled down.

      • On the other hand, it's also weird that a dude just popped into existence and then put things where they are now. My reasoning for the big bang is that the universe operates in a cycle. Eventually, it will cease to expand and then begin to collapse in on itself. Destroying evidence of the last cycle and converting all its matter into energy. Once it condenses into the smallest possible area, it explodes and creates a brand new universe, and the cycle starts all over again.

          • Maybe we are stuck in a time loop of big bangs, and maybe that's what scientists are researching even now along with wether or not gods exist.

            • Read about quatum mechanics and string theory. Some fascinating theories about your question can be found.

                • The universe expanded not blew up and it has zero net total energy. And is completely flat (hard to believe I know): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4UpvpHNGpM&app=desktop

                • The world may never know what created the universe. But what really matters is here and now. Our future as a species is more important than a cosmic riddle. Sometimes we have to put down the pencil and pick up the pen to write out our in-erasable future.

                      • we don't know. the difference between an atheists answer and a theists is that atheists won't put in some random unjustified answer.

                        • Will create a separate post for this thought. Any mass or matter contained densely enough will press and condense matter/energy into new forms and the heavier form will always move to the centre perhaps what caused the Big Bang was merely that the energy at its ore grew so dense and the right quantity to cause a reaction which created the bang. Look at the sun for an example on an extremely small scale. It burns hydrogen while helium is created from this process it moves to the core until one day the sun will run out of hydrogen and burn the helium until it expands and then dies perhaps the Big Bang was a similar process but one trillion times larger scale this the expansion two would be a trillion times larger.

                        • Well while this is merely a different reasoning one thought on the subject is that there was no infinitely dense ball of energy etc as what started the 'Big Bang' was a universe colliding with ours which caused a massive ripple through the previous universe that was here which broke all matter down to its base components causing a universe wide 'reset'if that theory is correct then whose to say it won't happen again or hasn't happened a billion times before. To paraphrase Neil DeGrasse Tyson 'nature creates nothing in ones there's no just one form of life,there's not just one planet,star or Galaxy so why would we logically believe there is only one universe'

                        • I could ask you what created God? This creator must have come from somewhere. I'd argue that the Big Bang is more plausible; that this 'ball of light' 'just appeared', is more likely than a deity, with the means and will to create a universe and then to preside specifically over one planet and take a vested interest in the lives of everything on it, 'just appeared'

                        • No one knows the answer that's the whole point of science, to try and find the answer not just blindly follow some book and act like you know the answers.
