"Why is there something rather than nothing"?

Well, why is there some god rather than no god? He would be the ultimate "something". I mean if you notice balance and order in the universe and think "designed", then god, who is supposedly SUPREMELY balanced and SUPREMELY orderly, should make you think "SUPREMELY designed", by creationist logic. I don't think the god concept solves any problem that any theist thinks it does.

    Science explains the big bang was not from nothing but from a singularity that was all the matter and energy in the universe compressed into a single point that then expanded rapidly!

    So it was always here!

    But why are Christians always claiming the big bang came from nothing? Are they that ignorant? Did they sleep through school or is it that they know the truth but think they can twist it because everyone is gullible?!

    Claiming something cannot come from nothing argues not against the big bang but against creationists claims!

    Recent research suggested for some time that the universe has contracted into a singularity and then expanded a number of times and now the evidence to support it has been found!

    I'm not convinced that there can BE nothing, so, the simple answer may well be that "something" is the only thing that's possible.

    Something uncreated always had to exist. And that something had to be able to Create everything else.

    This is God.
