From: Sun Tzu	of 70976

I used Big Bang as a short hand for "the moment universe as we know it was created". I think Hawking also put forward a theory that said there could have been multiple baby universes in existence at a delicate harmony with each other (therefore no need for a big bang but perhaps a collision between them). In all honesty, I think any layman's guess is as good as any acclaimed theorist when it comes to the origin of universe. The layman may not be able to articulate it as nicely as the "experts". But I don't think the experts actually know more than the rest of us in this regards. Here is my off the top of my head hypothesis in support of the big bang: The universe was made of "nothing" and this "nothing" was split into matter and anti-matter in a big bang explosion. They each mostly went their separate ways and created two universes: one made of matter and the other made of anti-matter. At the boundaries they are annihilating each other which is creating the vacuum that is causing the expanding acceleration of both universes. Does this sound good? If not, just give me an advanced degree in theoretical physics and watch people ah-ooh over it after I sprinkle some techno-jargon on it.
