"I can only speculate on the origins of the universe at this time. Based on probabilities more than absolutes I think that a primordial universe - the environment in which our universe developed - is quite unlike our own. As a minimum it would exist in more dimensions, it need not have gravity (which is just a manifestation of acceleration)"

An honest post, thank you.

The universe could not have just popped out of nothing without a cause. I don't care if pope Steven says it or not. By speculating about "primordial" or multiple universe's you only serve to move the ball back a bit. Eventually you have to come to a source and that source is going to have to be self existent. Infinites are theoretically possible but physically impossible, so you can't have a true infinite regression of cause and effects. The buck has to stop somewhere or with someone.
