Could the Universe actually pop into existence naturally

Our universe, yes. The most accepted theory of the origin of the universe is that time and space came into being as the results of quantum vacuum fluctuations.


That says nothing about other universes that may exist since they are not detectable. Any postulations about other universes would just be a thought experiment.

As for the idea of what happened before out universe existed is non starter. Time began at the creation of the universe. There can be no "before." And anything that happens outside of our universe may or may not have "time."

Are you asking a question about the origins of the Universe, quantum mechanics, or theology? It seems like you're just looking for someone to agree with your atheistic view. If that's the case then why not join an atheists group instead of coming up with vague, confusing questions. I have also read about particles popping in and out of existence. It's weird but apparently it's true. I don't see what that has to do with whether or not there is a deity.

Yupp. Its not what i believe but i love science and so yeah. Just like we could pop right OUT of existence. This may go off topic but i was watching a documantry about aliens. And they talked about how an existance of a ancient civilation that died out and they had no idea why but when they found remains they all were all holding hands, so they guessed they knew they were gona]=na die. But they also found a lot of radiation in the area, they thought from an atomic bomb, created by an out of this world object Although that was disproved because nothing was shown like on the landscape that there had been a bomb go off. So we could have been brought into this world by an unknown person or object (Which i believe in god) and were being wathed all the time. And were on a lock and one day they (might) will end us from humanity and just start allll overr. Just like that civilation. They lived for a couple thousand centuries or years and just died for an unexpected reason (or no reason)

You got it?

Please pick me as Best answer!

Not very likely, I'd say. The universe has probably existed for eternity. This documentary may interest you...

Yes, according to Paul Davies (NOT Stephen Hawking). God is physics.

If something can come from nothing then it throws a lot of theory's out the window, doesn't if?

It emerged when a finite potential ran it.s course.
