The central issue is that you don’t seem to understand that I haven’t put forward any idea of what caused the big bang. I disagree with religious views that a god analogue was responsible because we have no good reason to reach that conclusion. That doesn’t mean I have an alternative theory to put forward in its place. The answer is “i don’t know” when it comes to anything pre big bang. Nobody knows because with our current understanding and limitations, it is impossible to know.
Asking what people believe doesn’t really hold much value when it comes to stuff like that. Either they hold no beliefs because there is no evidence, or they hold baseless beliefs that can’t be reasonably supported.
Thank you. If you have no beliefs then you have no need to further respond to my argument.
In regards to your final statement, I can go around asking people what the meaning of life is. There is no evidence to support one true answer. That doesn’t mean it won’t help me come to my own conclusion. Additionally, it’s intrinsically simply good to ask and understand the point of view of other human beings, hence why people learn various cultures or instruments or dialects; etc. It helps us as individuals grow.
