It may be possible to glimpse before the supposed beginning of time into the universe prior to the Big Bang, researchers now say.
Unfortunately, any such picture will always be fuzzy at best due to a kind of "cosmic forgetfulness."
The Universe is everything that physically exists: the entirety of space and time, all forms of matter, energy and momentum, and the physical laws and physical constants that govern them.
My add: This definition speaks of our universal reality from the start of the "Big Bang" to its current state. There is no proven or disproven source of the universe. The universe cannot be considered a closed system but rather an individual 'whole' on its own. Just as a solar system is within a galaxy and a galaxy is within a universe. The universe is contained within a larger system.
"The idea of multiple universes is more than a fantastic invention -- it appears naturally within several scientific theories, and deserves to be taken seriously," said Aurelien Barrau, a French particle physicist at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), hardly a hotbed of flaky science.
"The multiverse is no longer a model, it is a consequence of our models," explained Barrau, who recently published an essay for CERN defending the concept.
"How new discoveries in quantum physics and new science may explain the existence of paramormal phenomena".

"God" and religion have NOTHING to do with each other.
Religions use their respective deity and rituals surrounding said deity to turn people away from knowing "God" for themselves.
Any time someone says they are the path to knowing or not knowing "God" they are a liar.
"God" is NOT a deity or being within or outside of the universe. "God" is not "in" everything. "God" IS everything, every last little bit of anything science could ever imagine they could study.
How stupid do people have to be to not understand that you will NEVER be able to step far enough back from "God" to say you've seen and understand it all.
Only "God", which is infinite, will ever experience itself fully.
There is a selfish attitude about god among the religious that is very self serving. Whenever I hear someone speak about their false deity or lack thereof all I hear is "me this and me that, god's like me and not you or science tells me this therefore god is not real, etc."
There are no deities, those that say the false gods of religion do not exist are correct. There is only "God" of which everything is a part of.
Those that say science will have an answer everything. This may one day happen ( lol: lol: ) but even if it does, science has only been studying "God" the entire time. Those that think "God" is limited to being the universe are mistaken, the universe only describes the area from the Big Bang to its current expansion.
There is no source for the big bang but science like to forget that matter can not be created or destroyed. The religious tell you some deity plopped it into existence, the scientatheists tell you it expands and collpases or whatever other crap theory science pops out with.
Energy transfers forms, it will do so indefinately. Einstein tells us about relativity, your perspective of your surrounding and how you perceive them. We have NO idea what size we actually are or how many fractions of reality "God" can contain. We exist within a certain spectrum of light. Your reality is based on your perception of wavelengths of a certain range. There are beings of all types that span all ranges of frequency. No matter how fantastic any being in any reality may be, it is not "God" and never will be.
Anything in existence is a part of "God", "God" does not exist as a whole within itself.

Atheism is a religion, you buy too many books about false gods not to be.

Why would a Atheist buy books about false gods if he doesn't believe in any gods at all?

Exactly. Atheists are searching for a reaffirmation of their beliefs. Thus, they read books that support their belief of the inexistence of "God" that supplement "God" for a preconstructed ideological deity. I've already said deities do not exist and that any being existing within "God" is not "God", only a part of "God". Religion, no matter whether it is the belief in the existence or inexistence of deity, is a fool's game. "God" is not a deity. "God" is existence and existence is infinite.
