Does the beginning have a beginning? Tldr; what do you guys think came before the Big Bang or god?
I was reading all the answers to the “what happens after death?” Question and I kind of had a mini existential crisis. Ok I’m gonna give some background here but I was raised religious (I wasn’t even allowed to leave my bed without praying) but I never believed in god even when I was a child. When I was 5 or 6 I would read my little books about space and sort of force myself to have existential crises. My question would always be, “what came before the Big Bang?” Or if we factor in god, “what came before god?” I did enough research on it to figure out that the human mind cannot perceive the things that happen outside its understanding of space/time. What do you guys feel about this?

Anyway, we had a discussion about this in the Catholic school I attend
Our teacher said that nothing came before God and nothing created God. Then he discussed about a part in Summa Theologica, and according to that(and my understanding), God is basically the reason for everything t...... reply
i was almost going to post this entire rant about space as a reply to this, I'm way too enthusiastic about anything related to space
but on a serious note, i find it kind of impossible to even understand time correctly. millions of years ago, big reptiles roamed the earth, grass as a species was not a thing and there was relatively less oxygen in ...... 3 reply
The beginning has no beginning, because it is THE beginning. Before the beginning there was nothing. Nothing existed, and then, *poof!* something existed. Simple as that. 2 reply
