Why?

12. I agree with you

I have a pet theory about how the universe and everything (including life) came to be. Basically, it's "From Chaos comes Order." It's my personal theory and explanation but I think most people can understand it. It goes this way:

Imagine a glass in front of you. You see nothing is in it but how can you prove there is nothing? To do so, you have to have a frame of reference which is what that glass provides. The glass provides the boundaries from which we observe if there is anything or nothing in the glass.

Using the above analogy, apply it to the universe. How do we know the universe exists? Because we have to have a frame of reference to compare it to so if there is no universe there is nothing to compare it to. Therefore, the fact we can see the universe (at least a portion of it) proves the universe exists.

Now comes the Chaos Theory about how the Earth, planets, stars, people, and everything else came about. Imagine a cylinder 10-feet high and 10-feet wide sitting on a base that will agitate causing the contents to swirl. Inside this cylinder you fill it with two-feet of dirt, two-feet of water, two-feet of pebbles, two-feet of oil, and two-feet of fist-sized rocks. You seal the cylinder and turn-on the agitator and leave it running until all the contents are equally disbursed. This is the Chaos. Once this is done, you turn the agitator off. What happens next?

The contents will continue to swirl until their momentum ceases. The contents will then redistribute themselves (Order) with the fist-sized rocks at the bottom, followed by the pebbles, followed by the dirt, followed by the water, and at the top is oil. The universe naturally provided it's order.

From the singularity, the elements of the universe were formed and distributed to form stars, planets, galaxies, etc.. Life evolved the same way from chaotic elements that ordered themselves into life forms.

Sorry for the long explanation, but I hope it helps to answer the question believers in God ask how they universe came about.
