      Great pure science up to 1x10-43 seconds. During this point he throws out the most obvious point and provides 3 explanations even more radical. Physics 'breaking down' is not the most obvious explanation. You can't explain physics if what you use to calculate it doesn't exist yet. Einstein's theory perfectly predicts that space, time, and matter are interdependent. That's the 'physics' relationship we have. It's pretty obvious if you don't have one you don't have any. The most logical explanation is that there was nothing as we know it. No time, matter, or space. His concept of multiple universes is also most logical mathematically, but does not need to intercept with ours.

      Chesky Stern it might also be a sin to say that we don’t know something when we clearly do! We do know what existed before or outside spacetime. You will see what I mean if you stop trying to make your way back to the beginning from within spacetime -when we know that the natural laws break down! Seriously that’s just being stupid. You can take yourself out of the universe one way. By finding the one solid thing that must have existed forever. Probability or probabilities. I explain the implications of this one foundation of reality in my video where I look hideous but Looks aren’t everything 😆🤷‍♀️
      People are so sure that they don’t know but that’s patently ridiculous because you can take the whole universe as an experimental result in a way- and then we DO KNOW that there was the probability of the universe existing. We know that and that’s huge. Probability is prime. It exists without the universe. The implications of that are staggering. I explain in my video. Incidentally I am a scientist in the top 1% of IQ and I have thought about this one thing my whole life. I am not being contentious, flippant, or cute. I discuss these things with Nobel Prizewinners. He’s just wrong.

I just think it’s more interesting when scientists talk about what they don’t know, since that’s when the juices of our imagination and innovation explode discovering. Also, when you understand what we don’t know, it’s pretty boring when a scientist starts telling you with great confidence what happened before the Big Bang.

      "It's not easy to explain difficult things in an easy way."
      That's true when someone's just trying to explain something difficult.
      Like a rocket engineer trying to explain how all the many facets involved in the mechanics of a rocket work together to produce a rocket that does what it's designed to do.
      That would be very difficult to explain in an easy way.
      But Dr Logan, I think it was, he's trying to explain the impossible.
      There is no scientific method in his description. There's no science that could reveal anything about what happened before creation came into being.
      And the big bang model defies the laws of physics, logic, the scientific method and common sense.
      Apparently, this fantasy club actually believe they represent Christ.
      Far from it. Christ taught us to trust God's word. Not change it, amend it, manipulate it, to conform with the secular ideologies of big bangs, billions of years, evolution, etc.
      When, and for how long the creation event took is clearly written in the book of Genesis, and specifically, the King James version.
      What God's word teaches is clear.
      The only question is do you believe God's word or man's best guesses?
      Because this guy is not teaching science aka observed, tested, repeatable knowledge.
      He's choosing what seems most reasonable, and aligns best with the modern secular concessions.
      Literally, you have to presume the big bang happened before compiling various theories about when and how it happened, what was happening prior to it, what caused it, etc.
      Without your initial assumption that it happened, there is nothing to extrapolate upon.
      That means it's all fantasy.
      So, you tell me... What, exactly, have you actually learned from examining a long list of previous fantasies?
      And if you're a Christian, believe Christ. He created the world as is, in six days, approximately 6000 years ago.
      Personally, I chose to believe God's word... At least until it can be proven wrong.
      And His word, as always, has proven to be, by far, the most scientifically sustainable model of the universe's origin and creation.
      No model that begins with "billions of years ago" stands up to objective scrutiny.
      Just the observation of the many clues just inside this solar system defy and debunk that model...
      Dinosaur fossils, and fossils in general, have been proven to be but a few thousand years old, by numerous examples of the actual application of the scientific method.
      Evolutionists have only one good reason to deny science every time it defies evolution. They prefer to believe there is no Creator.
      But Christians don't have any good reason to deny both God and science.
      Peer pressure is not a good reason, btw.
      Leave God out of it and just stand by the actual unbiased, objective, tested and repeated observable facts.
      Bio matter has a half-life of about 520 years, tops. Period. End of discussion.
      Rescuing devises are not how science moves forward.
      The bible, ancient textual human history, archeology, fossils, and the objectivity of the scientific method, just to name a few, all favor God's word, at all times, and in all things.
      But Christians need to learn to trust God...
      At least until His word has been demonstrably proven wrong.
      If anyone could have done that, there would be no bible.
      It's loaded from top to bottom, side to side, cover to cover with specific people, places, things, times, dates, prophecies, world renowned events, and more...
      If it was all made up, it would be the easiest thing in the world to debunk.

    The problem is that we only have a small sample size, taken over a tiny period of time, and from one infinitesimally small spot in the universe. Our perspective is fixed, and we have to make many assumptions based only on the tiny snippets of information we can collect at that point. It's like sampling the air one inch above the ground outside your front door for a week, and then trying to describe the whole of the Earth's atmosphere in minute detail, just from those readings. Yet even with millions of weather measurements taken around the globe every day, dozens of weather satellites in orbit, and vast amounts of computing power running simulations, we still don't have the granularity to accurately predict the exact conditions at that one spot at any point in time. Now imagine this on a universal scale.

The physical laws of time and space, and the relationship of mass and energy, and all atomic values defined in the first microsecond. Since God created them he operated outside those parameters and is in no way limited by them in any way. So what was before the big bang we can never know...until we die and then it won't matter.
      Apparently the universe is a one-time event. It was created, will exist for a period of time (approximately 145 billion years) then the "Big Rip" will end it all with all mass reduced to sub-atomic particles and be rolled up like a scroll.

This man believes that he knows solidly how the universe was created back to the very first second. He's so narcissistic, that he says they don't exactly know what happened from time 0 to 10^-13 seconds, but what they think is sensible speculation. After 10^13 seconds? Oh no, that's not speculation. He just knows.
      I have no problem with the theory. It may be true. It may not be. Personally, I think the odds of them actually being correct are astronomical (no pun intended). My problem is the insane amount of arrogance to basically just take this theory as complete fact. Actually, I don't think he "basically" takes it as fact. I'm pretty sure he completely takes this as fact, and a done deal. Which again, I have no problem with him believing that either. I wished he would just acknowledge it as a belief.

      that's the holographic principle, based on information thought to be imprinted on a black hole's event horizon, which was established as the solution to the information paradox by stephen hawking i think. Then speculation arose that the same thing could apply to our whole universe, all the universe as information imprinted on a two dimensional hologram, either encircling our universe or imprinted on a black hole's event horizon. This encouraged further speculation taking the idea to its most extreme conclusion-the simulation hypothesis. Holographic principle though merely speculative is way more sensible than the latter. But that's only relatively speaking.
      They are both fringe ideas. Indeed two experiments have been done to test for the holographic principle, one was to test for the equivalent of pixels in the structure of space-time. If this is holographic, then space will be pixelated. However so far no pixelation has been found. Another experiment, this one non lab based, used telescopes to measure the journey of different types of electromagnetic waves, specifically if space-time is not a smooth membrane like medium, then Fermi's LAT would have detected a significant time lag between the arrival of the lowest-energy and highest-energy gamma rays. In fact, to within one part in 100 million billion, the two photons traveled at the same speed. Many approaches to new theories of gravity picture space-time as having a shifting, frothy structure at physical scales trillions of times smaller than an electron. Some models predict that the foamy aspect of space-time will cause higher-energy gamma rays to move slightly more slowly than photons at lower energy.
      Such a model would violate Einstein's edict that all electromagnetic radiation -- radio waves, infrared, visible light, X-rays and gamma rays -- travels through a vacuum at the same speed.
      Fermi showed that pixelation or rough 'texture' in space-time may not exist at all. So far the smoothness of the space-time continuum has been confirmed. So that's NO to the holographic principle or simulation hypothesis. It confirms the aether/vacuum conventional idea, supported by Einstein and his predecessors which describes spacetime as euclidean.
      However all this fringe speculation, especially occupying populist 'science' circles, started with the information paradox black hole problem, which I'm not satisfied is solved, and I don't even think it's that great a problem-energy can't be created or destroyed, information can't be lost. These rules may not apply in extreme situations e.g. at the high energy and temperatures just after time equals zero st the big bang our laws of physics did not apply. And similarly things break down in black holes-which are the most extreme predictions derived from General relativity's mathematics-all the tensor and vector calculus. the schwarzschild metric and the kerr metric describes the physics of black holes, and it's pretty crazy,the maths says in a kerr black hole you can visit your own past. Black holes spin space and time. All real black holes are spinning black holes. The angular momentum of the star thay collapsed, plus the material the black hole devows, even at a quantum level, the angular momentum of every fermion and boson means black holes always rotate. A paper in the astrophysical journal detailed how gamma ray bursts seem to produce superluminal motion, with superluminal gamma waves being time reversed.. gamma ray burst only happen in very extreme cosmological events and therefore are another example of where our laws of physics may break down to produce faster than light travel through space under that unique condition. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/ab3bdf

      Not only "We don't know," but "We probably _can't_ ever know."
      The Bang had already presumably happened, and expansion was already underway at the earliest point our observations can tell us anything concrete. Anything _anyone_ has to say on the actual _origin_ of the matter, energy, space, and time involved in that expansion, whether the person be of secular persuasion or theological, is a matter taken on the basis of neither empiricism nor rationalism. That leaves faith.
      (and before anyone claims that he uses rationalism in the video, yes, he does, but only up to the point where physics becomes meaningless. Before that, he openly admits that there is only speculation, with no actual data).

      Actually there's a very great deal we do know, and it's not flattering.
      Einstein said: "thermodynamics is the one theory of universal content which will never be overthrown".
      Arthur Eddington made Einstein Einstein. He said: "if your theory challenges thermodynamics there is no hope for you other than total humiliation".
      These theorists, well-intentioned or other(Brian Greene), put bread on their
      table with their theories. NO ONE grants $$$ to respond to, "we don't know and
      there's every reason to think we never will". So reasonably they HAVE to propose
      hypotheses. But NOTHING is suggested that doesn't conflict prima facie with
      thermodynamics. 1st Law disallows heat from cold: this universe of heat from "nothing"(cold). 2nd Law demands that heat goes only to cold: this universe of heat
      would have distributed to cold if eternal....it has not so it's not eternal.
      NOTICE NONE of them EVER refer to a reconciliation with thermodynamics.
      NOT because they don't have it...OF COURSE THEY DON'T. But because NO ONE
      EVER voices the words; "thermodynamics is wrong". It's the clergy saying "there's no God"; THEIR JOB IS OVER!!

      Don Lincoln here did not properly explain what actually occurred before existence expanded out of the singularity. The singularity is where/when all this existence was merged into, you got it, a "singularity". What is this singularity? This is energy at its maximum level of intensity, an infinite level of intensity. It is not possible to go beyond an infinite/maximum level of energy which is why we can logically conclude the singularity does not have a beginning. As existence expands, the level of energy decreases, and will continue decreasing until its minimum level of intensity, even if it takes an eternity to get there.

A moment in time that is 1 to the minus 43 of a second is just as incomprehensible to me as the concept of all the universe being “not quite zero-sized” haha that could have come from Python! However I asked this question of a genuine astrophysicist myself some years ago and am prompted to ask it again ask again “WHERE was this super-dense, super-hot, super-tiny particle at the time?” Being a fan of the old Marvel comics stories that often drew in the universes within universes, I have this vision of alien scientists looking at a slide in an electron microscope billions of years ago and one, recoiling from a blinding flash in his viewfinder turns to his puzzled colleagues and drily says “We’re gonna need a bigger lab”

      @@silknfeathers your problem might be a problem of semantics. The word 'God' might be used with the most varied of meanings of all words.
      Think about what this video attempts to contemplate: what is before the beginning of the universe, and even is the cause of the universe? Do we yet have a word for it?
      Start with a brand new word; and give it an initial meaning, such as: that which exists independently from and causes our known universe of space, time, matter, and energy. Then, by way of logic and reason, describe the attributes which are necessary for such a 'thing' to be accurately defined as such.
      If it exists independently of time, then it is timeless. If it exists independently of space, then it is omnipresent. If it exists while there is no matter, then it is immaterial. If it causes the beginning of all known energy and matter, then it is omnipotent. If it exists timelessly yet causes at a time, it might be considered agency. If it causes all that is known it is omniscient. Keep going.
      One can come up with a few more logically necessary attributes. Then you can call it what you want. You can even recognize that some people are already using a word for this. Maybe they are importing more meaning ascribed to that word than some people find comfortable. It's semantics, at that point.
      Or you can take the view that you don't like any of the logical conclusions about the necessary attributes, and choose instead to believe that 'nothing' could precede (or co-exist with) the moment of creation, but that is logically absurd.

      Did you know God created the world?
      Did you also know a guy named Georges Lemaître, (1894-1966), Belgian cosmologist, Catholic priest came up with the idea of a big bang theory?
      The definition of ( theory ) is-
      a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained.
      "Darwin's theory of evolution is also just and idea some man had.
      In the 1920's is when the idea happen, and it's weird because he was a priest and if he read the Bible it says on the first page God created the world. Unless he didn't really believe the Bible and is one of the people the Bible talks about being a wolf in sheep's clothing deceiving people and causing confusion.
      Most people don't believe the Bible because they say it was written by man and it's wrong but instead some go and believe in nothing or in evolution and the big bang or both those together without the thought of God creating the world...
      Did you know the Bible says there's a number for man and it's the same number as the beast and the number is 666? How did someone thousands of years ago know that the number of man was 666 without DNA testing or the technology you'd need to know that? Because humans have carbon-12 in them which is made up of 6 protons 6 electrons and 6 neutrons and also Jesus and Lucifer where referred to as stars in the Bible and stars too also have carbon-12. How can they possibly know this information unless they where given the knowledge.
      But with all the confusion and lies in the world through time people lost the truth. Now we have people believing in other man's words about life and creation of earth and humans when they truly don't know and the Bible is the answer to those questions without a doubt if you are wide enough to understand what it says which everyone should because God is not the author of confusion...
      We all need to put are faith and trust back into God and his only begotten son Jesus Christ.
      For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth on him will not perish but have everlasting life
      He died on the cross and rose again to save us all from sin cause by the devil.
      Peace and love to everyone who reads this.
      JESUS IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE NO ONE CAN GET TO THE FATHER BUT BY HIM.
