And you're back where you started.
yes, exactly. i.e. i answered the question.
the universe has either existed forever (observable evidence does not support this), or it was formed spontaneously. there are no other possibilities.
i disagree. observable evidence shows that the big bang may have happend. which would explain the movment of the different bodies that makeup the galaxy.
it does not explain how the big bang happend. it does not imply even that there was nothing before the big bang. the big bang could very well have been one of many bangs that happend "inside" a precluding universe.

The universe has no age. The universe contains no moments. The universe has no beginning. The universe was not created. The universe has no initial conditions. The universe cannot be measured. The universe cannot be distinguished from "nothing." The universe cannot really be said to "exist."
And the funny thing is, all of this is staring us RIGHT IN THE FACE. But think how you want.

Considering what happened before creation of our universe is pointless since the laws of our universe did not exist.

something cannot come from nothing.
Although they don't stay around long, virtual particles in the Faynman Diagrams of Quantum Mechanics do appear to come from nothing.

Those particles last as long as Diploid on a romp with a long-legged Florida woman.

Not true! I perform on the order of nanoseconds; virtual particles only picoseconds. So there!

Why do we think, universes limitations are the limitations that are known to us ? I think universe as a part of some vast multidimensional 'thing', where sometimes energies cross the boarders of these dimensions. So it is no problem to interpret, that from out limited dimensional view it appears as if the beginning of our universe started out of nothing. In fact there simply appeared some interdimensional energy-shift, which inflated some kind of 'separate dimension-bubble', known as universe to us.

i coverd this already. from earlier in the post "it does not explain how the big bang happend. it does not imply even that there was nothing before the big bang. the big bang could very well have been one of many bangs that happend "inside" a precluding universe."

So then, I think the same as you and don't see the problem...
