I have my own "silly" idea of how the Big Bang started and that is why I am using this forum, SO YOU CAN HELP ME DISPROVE IT. So, perhaps our universe is like a new spot. A zit that appears on a 14yr old boys face one morning. It wasn't there yesterday but its definitely there today. Using this analogy, perhaps the bacteria and the spot can be considered to have existed before The Big Bang and our universe it what is left on the mirror in the bathroom, after being squeezed into existence. My quest for knowledge continues... However I would love to hear your thought on my "silly" idea. One thing I do know is the answers to the universe and everything is not 42.So long a nd thanks for all the fish!
