I don't think you can speak in terms of "before the big bang", because time was not the same concept as our current one.

The human concept of 'time' is flawed anyway. Ultimately, it has very little to do with mathematics. Certainly not the specific kind of math that relates to Big Bang theories.
IMO :p |

I totally agree.
Things like science, mathematics and religion are just gauges using our effective reasoning given available knowledge and understanding of how things work or how we suppose them to work. Of course we could get into whether or not religion uses empirical knowledge or not, but I think the point of most our disciplines or endeavors is to extract or postulate a theory on the universe; it doesn't have to encompass everything, it could be really, really small or seemingly insignificant, but so long as it reasons at least something we did not necessarily know or understand before, it is one of these gauges.
That said, time is only a reasoning - it is a mathematical gauge of movement and scarce much more than that.
I am of mind to believe that the universe does not "care" for us. It is not some great caretaker, though it may very well be our creator - our "God" of sorts. It does not pay heed to our arbitrary sense of time nor of reason; we do not matter in any practical sense, though matter is quite what we are. We need to start thinking more inwards, we need to start thinking of ourselves as our very own Gods. This is skating the line of extreme egoism, almost megalomania, but I also believe we need to second-think what the nature of a God truly is. Am I saying we should think of ourselves as superior, lords over all creation? No way. I am saying that we need to stop looking in places where there is nothing, searching for a savior when we haven't actually done anything that could truly offend the Universe in any big way.
So yeah, what was God doing before the big bang?
I don't know.
You were there.
We were all there.
Why don't you tell me? |
