[It's the question a child asks when he is given the answer that existence comes from God. "Where does God come from?" It's no different if you take things back to the Big Bang. "Where did the Big Bang come form?" There is always this question, no answer.]

There is more than one question here and there are many, many answers.

The definition of existence is open to interpretation.

It is true though that if you look at the problem simplistically, for example, from a child's point of view, your response may be limited to what the child can understand.

If you look at the problem from Einstein's or Leakey's viewpoint, the information presented to you will be more complex.

In my opinion, looking at the notion of existence from a child's viewpoint, as you have explained it above, is a waste of time unless you are writing children's stories, music, cartoon etc.

So why are ya all clogging up Christine's thread with this stuff!!!!
