If energy cannot be created nor destroyed, how could it be created?

There must be a bottom to the rabbit hole of existence. At some point: Where did ______ come from, must have the answer:

Someone or something has always existed

God has always existed and created spacetime.

Spacetime has always existed

Both statements are equally valid. Take your choice.

Anyhow:

Spacetime is not nothing. It has properties, it can be bent, warped, twisted. Spacetime has structure. Spacetime is pervaded by Dark Energy. In fact, Dark Energy may be the structure of Spacetime, what we call the "Fabric of Spacetime

So, we have a huge amount of energy stored in the Fabric of Spacetime. A quantum fluctuation releases some of that energy as a Big Bang creating a universe. It is all a matter of scale This process has gone on in the past and continues today creating an infinite number of universes. We see the Big Bang not as a unique event, but as a regular event that fits with a logical, consistant physical process. Physics makes the most sense without unique events. A physics that allows unique events is unpredictable and borders on magic.

Ok, hold on to your seat: The total energy of the universe is ZERO, so none had to be "created"....

You might wonder how the total energy of the universe can be zero, because you see all this matter and radiation and more exotic stuff like dark matter and dark energy. But to take balance of the total energy, you should also take into account the gravitational energy. That energy is negative (force of attraction declines with increasing distance) and that subtracts from the positive energy we see in matter and radiation.

Now for the big news: careful measurements by cosmologists in the last years have shown that the amount of negative gravitational energy EXACTLY balances the positive matter/radiation energy (in jargon, our universe is "flat").

So this solves your problem of creating from nothing ("creatio ex nihilo"), because our universe and we are nothing in that energetic sense...

One of the most modern cosmological ideas is that universes spring out of nothing (inclusing space-time itself) as a quantum fluctuation of a zero-energy state ("quantum vacuum") all the time and then each such bubble universe in a "foam"of bubbles (multiverse) is expanding at an initially exponential rate. Matter condenses out of the gravitational field automatically during that expansion.

So, fortunately, there still is no compelling reason whatsoever to believe in a Creator/ Goddess.

That medieval idea of the existence of a God to explain creation is a proposition that fails from the start: if you invoke a creator to explain the existence of the universe and we in it, then you have not explained anything before you explain who created the creator.....

It can not be created or destroyed but it can be transformed. Who created gods energy? Don't give me that always was and always will be crap either. The singularity allowed two colliding objects to transform into the energy we have today. It was a transformation not a making of! If you don't believe me then ask your god! See what he has to say. HAha

Einstein discovered the equation that E^2 = (MC^2)^2 x (PC^2)^2 where E means energy, M means mass, C is the speed of light, and P is momentum. So, if there is something that is traveling at the speed of light, then it has energy.

In this equation, energy is not created, but is changed from mass moving at the speed of light into energy. This idea is very similar to the example, if you burn a piece of wood, then the wood gets smaller. However, the wood gets smaller, because its mass is changed into smoke and heat.

you have your data tremendously in the present day in regard to potential. yet; evaluate the 1st regulation of Bio technological understanding [Bio Genesis] which states: " existence would desire to come from existence". Now; people are a existence sort subsequently, people are remember, that's potential. potential is subjective to time and area. God isn't remember yet is spirit -composed. isn't subjective to time nor area (can't be constrained), God is eternal and by no ability dies. God consistently became into, is and could be starting to be to be further and extra in greatness. God is subsequently, existence - the "existence-spark" which breathed into our suited Grandparent, Adam. Adam grew to develop right into a living soul [being] . Even a greater perfect question relating to the comprehensive Universe: what's the "glue" which holds the comprehensive element jointly? remember; God is shrink-much less and to create potential could be no problemo !!!

God is a good way of explaining all that we do not know, religion masks cognitive inadequacy or incomplete knowledge.
