There must be some expanse for it to explode. How did this expanse come to exist?

Where did God/Brahman come from? Were they created with a Big Bang?My opinion is that it was the start of this great cosmic play of the creator God/Brahman.
No, I see Brahman as the uncreated (beyond the comprehension of the finite) and the material universe as His cosmic creation/play/drama in which Brahman can experience finiteness. In this play He separates Himself from Himself and returns Himself to Himself. In Advaita thought we are Brahman experiencing through the mask of finiteness.Where did God/Brahman come from?

Sort of. People like dramatic names, that's why we have the God particle too.Isn't the Big Bang something of a misnomer? I thought it was a rapid expansion of matter from a single point in space.
Aah, special pleading.No, I see Brahman as the uncreated (beyond the comprehension of the finite) and the material universe as His cosmic creation/play/drama in which Brahman can experience finiteness.

Yep......Isn't the Big Bang something of a misnomer? I thought it was a rapid expansion of matter from a single point in space.
It didn't explode. It expanded. It didn't expand into an expanse. It is the expanse becoming.There must be some expanse for it to explode. How did this expanse come to exist?
Don't quote me on this, but I believe it was caused by the reaction between matter and anti-matter, which ended up being a bit heavy on the matter side, so the universe could be formed as is. Theoretically, if it was anti-matter heavy, the universe would consist of anti-matter instead of matter.There must be some expanse for it to explode. How did this expanse come to exist?

Cosmologists have various hypotheses but at this point there is no way of telling what caused this expansion (actually two expansions a minute fraction of a second apart). With the study of the "afterglow" (radiation emitted from the BB) on-going, it is possible they may have a better idea of the cause fairly shortly, according to Susskind.There must be some expanse for it to explode.

The better question to ask is how could spacial infinity not ever have had a beginning? Remember....time is merely a mental construct to represent a finite segmental measurement of the eternal enduring now...and finite space is a mental construct of represent a finite circumscribed spacial volume of infinity. These mental constructs are only concepts invented by humans to put imagined finite limits on eternity and infinity so as to help make it simple and manageable mentally to help explain and understand the working of cosmos that are relevant to the mortal condition and survival as a species....There must be some expanse for it to explode.
