I was lecturing a group on how probability theory could explain pre big bamg conditions, i was asked how i could know it to be true given that no time and mo space is beyond our understanding, fair question you might think, i said i didn't know it to be true but with availiable evidence it seemed the best explaination i had, i asked if the questioner had another theory {always willing to hear an idea} and was told "God did it" i asked which one and recieved a torrent of abuse. i can demonstrate mathmaticaly my idea, the religionist can only threaten me with eternal hell fire. the energy requirement for eternal hell fire wouldn't leave enough energy for the rest of the universe to exist.
