not an explosion in the way you are thinking

but nothing existed before

nothing can't make something by itself

Then how did it appear

Yeah

What expanded into existence if there was nothing there in the first place?

in short, we currently don't know yet. Before the Planck Epoch (only the smallest fraction of a second after the big bang) the universe would have been dominated by the force of quantum gravity. quantum gravity is the unification of general relativity and quantum mechanics, and describes how gravity might function at the subatomic level. We currently do not have a theory of quantum gravity (but we are working on one!) so we cannot be sure what existed prior to the aforementioned epoch. It is also believed that if the universe were condensed into a singularity (we call this the 'initial singularity) as general relativity predicts, space and time would have been united and indistinguishable. This goes into some pretty complex stuff like Imaginary time (imaginary time has not yet been confirmed)

did you see all this happen

no, its similar to a crime scene. We see the blood on the walls, a recently fired handgun in the bushes a few meters away, and a dead body

using these clues we determine what happened in the past

We look at the clues in our universe, such as the redshift of galaxies, the cosmic microwave background radiation, and the abundance of quasars in the distant universe, then come to a conclusion about the past

thanks for the completely relevant link

global warming

Global warming is real?

I've always wondered do people in political servers take the time to study this shit, or assumptions, or just go by the media

depends on what you are talking about

I have no idea about politics nor do I care for them, I just join these servers for the fuck of it

same

I see people have debates, I wish I could join in sometimes

o i also like harassing fundies

yes, there are actually fundies on discord chat for gamers

What's a fundie?

fundamentalist

O

See I don't even know the terms used to describe certain groups

Or it's just my stupidity I think the latter

well ofc the scientific method isn't. it created the wonderous world we live in today. oh wait...

the entire reason why Popper is a moron is because most people like him and Bentham feel the best way to make people better is through mathematics. people aren't fucking statistics.

This dude is talking to himself

obviously I'm an ethical solipsist

none of you are real

Or you're just a weirdo

lol

bot is touchy

I guess

nice little SJW bot. A.I. was a mistake
