Origins~
In the book Sophie’s World, by Jostein Gaarder, the Philosopher posed several simple questions in his letters to Sophie. One of these questions was "where did the world come from?".
Where did the world come from? Well we know it didn't just come from nothing, Physics and Chemistry (and just about every other thing related to math and science) tell us that through laws of conservation of mass and energy. So something must have created the universe; well, maybe it was an almighty power? But then who created the almighty power? An almighty power couldn't create itself before its own existence, that's just illogical.
So something created the universe, and if the universe was created by some powerful event or being then something must have caused or created that too. So the only logical thing to believe is that ergo something must have always have existed and the universe means everything that exists throughout space so therefore the universe has always existed. If something has always existed and everything is caused by something, than the very first thing must have been set in motion by something that it created. This means that something either in history, in the future, or possibly a mad scientist or a star exploding right now created the entire universe that we live in at this very moment. So, just imagine the implication of time travel, accidentally undo the creation of the universe, but that's just a tangent.
So after musing all of this information and more, one has to believe that something created everything which in turn created that same something that created everything.
There is also the idea of a central "Big Bang", if the universe was shot out from one central point during the "Big Bang" the through basic Physics knowledge one can assume that the gravity of the rest of the universe would pull everything back to the center of everything. This constant force of gravity pulling everything inwards would eventually wear down the force of the "Big Bang" and reverse the direction of the universe. Could the point which all of the stars, planets, and life forms implode on a central location bee then end of the universe, and more important to us all, humanity?
NO! This is because at the time this finally happens humanity will either be extinct due to being pulled into stars and other planets over time or we will have evolved into massless energy that floats around, in which case we might possibly be able to then experience the end of everything as we may eventually know it. If this ever ends up happening could the universe destroy itself?
Nope, otherwise our math and physics is utterly pointless and we are back to square one on discovering the universe. But would the collapse of the universe be enough to rip through time and create the next "Big Bang"? Well I guess we might never know but if some sentient space goo reads this in the distant future, I mean no disrespect, it would be much appreciated if they came to visit and brought pictures, or possibly a higher form of optical portrayal, and let us view our final Forth of July fireworks show...
