Who can testify about the creation of the universe if man during that time did not exist yet?

That's just it, it is a theory only and there is NO real proof. And every so often they change and adapt things in this theory when some scientific fact or discovery comes along and begins to expose it. People did not come from monkeys. A piece or two pieces of nothing did not explode and create everything. And evolution disproves itself. It teaches that the strongest species survives. So if that is so why is man still here? Man isn't the strongest species, but he does think. But the original theories say the strongest not the one that can think. So as I said it disproves itself. So now the only logical and factual explanation for existence is GOD!!!

Nobody has been able to prove that the Universe was created by god or not. Cosmologists (astronomer’s who study the evolution and space-time relations of the universe) have been trying for years to understand the way the Universe came into being by trying to understand what occurred during the very first few seconds of the Big Bang. Through these studies they’ve determined with a high degree of probability that the Universe did indeed spring up from a central point in the cosmos and expanded with tremendous speed to envelop all that we see. \n\nThe one thing that none of these scientists have ever attempted to prove is weather the Universe was artificially created (God) or the byproduct of natural forces. To do so would smack of heresy among their scientific peers, not to mention the reaction from the religious community. The entrance of a divine force has been left up to us to determine. Even the cosmologists and mathematicians have long been divided as to weather God had a hand in its creation. \n\nAlbert Einstein (a devout Jew) for instance strongly believed that there was more than a hint of a divine hand in the creation of the universe. The way the physics of the universe operated seemed too perfect for them to spring up from pure chance or coincidence.

I asked too, and was told he has always been present, which scares me and answer a lot of questions.  I guess he was around forever.  He was the one who created everything like, dinosaurs, etc. So I guess he got better along the way and created man and we have been here every since.  WOW!  I never thought of it that way.  Still confused, I am on a mission know.  To be honest I don't think we are going to get a straight answer because that will prove the true existence and challenge everything that we believe.  Imagine what would become of the world if we found out this was all a farce to keep most of us straight.  It is because of religion that we are doing okay today, of course man has rules. laws, and regulations for the ones who are non-believer's and the slackers. That would open up another Pandora's Box.  WOW!

common sense.  if you can tell me how or when God was created then I'll reconsider religon.  As for now, scientists can tell me when the universe was created (6.5 Billion years ago) and how it was created (Big Bang).

I agree that the Universe was created by a higher being. I don't agree that said being created man at all. However, I do think that by becoming aware of ourselves and simply believing in said being's existence that said being is now aware of us. I don't believe that God/Diety/whatever you want to call it really gives a damn what we do. Anyway...I think that all beings, sentient or otherwise, that exist in the Universe are a result of the divine and since the divine makes no mistakes we are as we were meant to be. Flawed but still here. Still trying to find the meaning of it all.

I disbelieve on the grounds of lack of evidence so short of proof being forthcoming I couldn't say I believed God existed. Convictions or subjective opinions don't come into it-it's purely down to a lack of valid evidence.

This is probably more a philosophical question than scientific one, as it is (currently) impossible to prove.  The answer, then, is a matter of faith.  If you are religious, and believe in an eternal God, then there has always been something, but not the present universe (which, by definition, would have to exists "in" God, as that being is without boundaries and could not be contained).\n\nIf you are not religion-bound, then you can argue either point.  The Big Bang theory only speaks about what happened after the inception of the universe, not what was present before.

I think we have first the abiity to choose. What good would it do to have options if we didn't know what to do with them? And yes, I think things need a "reference point" so to speak in order to "exist." Yet when God created the world He created everything else before he created man. Maybe this question is not as simple as it seemed when I first read it. Oh dear.

There is no proof that our universe is, was or will be the only universe.  The nature of reality is that we can only study and observe what is in our universe, so we will never know because there is no way to find out.

Man created god to explain what he did not understand,\nthrough science began to unlock the mysteries of the universe.\ngod is dead

Hello Rendier.. :)\n\nI just heard the other day, a scientist that said that you cannot produce something out of nothing..\n\nSo how then can they say, that the universe came from nothing..\n\nGod created the Heavens and the Earth..that makes more sense..It just seems to easy for those that do not believe in God..

Would you like to see a real picture that was recently made of the beginning of the Universe?\n\nhttp://www.princeton.edu/pr/pwb/03/0217/

Einstein-"Time is an Illusion, although persistent still just an illusion." \n\nwhat he is talking about is that physical unverse exists in a single infinitesible moment just as much as it does over the span of a million years. Time presents our senses with the concepts of mass and form. Time only exists so that we may perceive the universe and of course if we could not perceive the universe it would not really exist would it? Do you beleive in God now?

even if we agree to the idea that there is a god who created us, which i do, in a way, i don`t think that he would have created an entire universe and only us as his servants.. and scientifically speaking the universe is so big that the possibility of us being alone is almost zero.

The universe as we know it could not exist without gravity.  Therefore, if you believe God created the universe, then God must have created gravity.  Why did it take man so long to figure out?  Well, there are many things we still don't understand about God (if she exists) and the universe.

No one, for he has always existed, which is difficult for us to comprehend.\nPsalms 90:2--"Before the mountains themselves were born,\nOr you proceeded to bring forth as with labor pains the earth and the productive land, Even from time indefinite to time indefinite you are God."\nMany people believe that all creation happened due to chance or evolution. Let them consider these facts about our marvelous earthly home and then see if they still have doubts about a Creator:\nThe earth is placed at just the right distance from the sun, its source of energy in the form of light and heat.\nIt moves around the sun at just the right speed, and rotates on its axis every 24 hours, and has just the correct angle of tilt.\nIt has a protective, life-sustaining atmosphere with just the right mixture of gases.\nIt provides the water and soil needed to grow food.\nIt provides a variety of delicious and colorful fruits, vegetables and other foods.\nWe also are able to enjoy the beauty that exists in the sky such as rainbows, the stars and a moonlit night.\nWe enjoy the mountains, the streams and lakes, the varieties of beautiful fragrant flowers, plants and trees and so many other delightful living things.\nWhen I consider all these things and how I am able to see in living color and can taste all the foods the earth provides, then yes---God is real and all things were created by intelligent design.
