We apparently have to start from an origin that makes no sense from the get go, which is the supposed singularity. That alone is unproven and even being questioned more and more very understandably. How did so much derive from literally nothing? Just because some mathmatical analysis sounds good doesn't mean analyzers of them have a clue what they are talking about, and any honest one will tell you that.
For the record I am not even close to a flat-earther sort, as well I think personally that our existence goes beyond either simple evolution and/or creation. I think it was a form of both that we just don't fully grasp yet, just as we are not meant to at this time and maybe never will be.
Regardless that flying thingy was cool and it would have been neat if we caught it in a big net!
We don't think the singularity came from nothing. If membrane is correct, "our" singularity is just one in a sea of bubbles that are continuously created, expand and probably contract back to a lone singularity. Dark matter gives us everything we need for the "big collapse" in the distant future.
Things were simpler when we imagined an infinite "steady state" universe. Now it just seems like we are a temporary bubble in a sea of bubbles that might be infinite.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
