if the general picture however of a big
bang followed by an expanding universe
is correct what happened before that was
the universe devoid of all matter and
then the matter suddenly somehow created
how did that happen in many cultures the
customary answer is that a god or gods
created the universe out of nothing but
if we wish to pursue this question
courageously we must of course ask the
next question where did god come from if
we decide that this is an unanswerable
question why not save a step and
conclude that the origin of the universe
is an unanswerable question
or if we say that god always existed why
not save a step and conclude that the
universe always existed there's no need
for a creation it was always here these
are not easy questions cosmology brings
us face to face with the deepest
mysteries with questions that were once
treated only in religion and myth
