AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the belief in the Big Bang theory and the existence of multiple universes. A key question raised is the origin of matter, given the principle that matter cannot be created or destroyed. Theories proposed include the possibility of universes with different laws of matter or the existence of energy-rich universes that can create new ones. Participants emphasize the need for credible scientific theories over personal interpretations. The conversation highlights the importance of adhering to established cosmological concepts like inflation and the multiverse.

I, along with many other people, believe (for the most part) in the big bang. However matter cannot be created or destroyed, so where did it come from to allow the big bang to happen in the first place? I also believe that there are countless other universes much like our own. I was wondering if its possible that perhaps one of these universes has different laws of matter than our own and that matter can be created and or destroyed. From this i hatched 2 main possibilities: either this universe has so much energy in it that it can actually create new universes or there are already empty universes and they somehow temporarily connect with the other one allowing energy/matter to fill it. Could someone please point out all the flaws in this personal theory of mine, and also give a couple of widely accepted theories that are more plausible?

Welcome to PF. I'm sorry to say that personal theories however aren't so welcome (check out rules) :)

Check these references for some credible ideas

Thread 'Questions about quantum cosmology'

what is the current status of the field for quantum cosmology, are there any observations that support any theory of quantum cosmology? is it just cosmology during the Planck era or does it extend past the Planck era. what are the leading candidates into research into quantum cosmology and which physics departments research it? how much respect does loop quantum cosmology has compared to string cosmology with actual cosmologists?
