Thinking on this gives rise to the question what caused the Big Bang (Big Split)? If the universe was in a neutral state, what caused it to deviate from that?

Yeah but that doesn't actually describe anything. You can call it anything if that how you call nothing. Point of fact no matter what you use to get 0 as your nothing marker. Either way you would need something one side of the equation or the other to start the need for a balance. Be it negative or positive either way you would need One to get the other.
I think the point Therian is trying to make is that for Negative and Positive to burst out of anywhere simultaneously as you put it they would have had to exist in the 1st place... equalling 3 states... negaitve, nothing, positive

The point is that they happen simultaneously. Not one then another balancing it all out, but both splitting out of their total(0), and never disrupting the balance.
What do you mean by "grow". Dispersing out and increasing in mass are two completely different things. And even that initial 'seed' needed to come from some where. The fact is, all the mass in our Universe HAD TO have come from some where. The only explanation is that it came from nothing. And if something is coming from nothing it needs to be balanced. Consider this post I made a while ago:
Could it not be that the Universe "grew" from something infinitely small (and I don't mean a bang), in that it still came from something but something so small we are yet to be able to quantify it?
Consider that Quantum Mechanics tells us at the most fundamental levels reality is completely abstract and based on exotic concepts which incorporate things like super-position and probability wave functions for physical matter. Also, empty space is actually thriving with "virtual particles". It is believed that they literally borrow energy from nothing or from the future in order to exist momentarily but then disappear again. And this isn't pseudo-science, this is fact - as long as they give the energy back quick enough these virtual particles can thrive in empty space. What if the natural state of reality is 'nothing' and the appearance of 'something' is like a momentary blip in the system, similar to a virtual particle, it's not absolutely "real", it has to stretch the laws of raw reality to create illusions which actually appear to be real. That's why reality is "fuzzy" at the most fundamental levels.

Okay so he is saying there was nothing then Bang there was something... Sounds familiar some how... why not go further then and say have a -2 and a + 2 and so on. Then we would have millions of dark reality's and millions of positive ones. We could call them dimensions.. Oh then after we could be right back at the same theory which doesn't actually do anything but repeat the big bang theory.

Exactly, as one increases, the other increases at the same rate. As the normal Universe gets bigger, so does the negative Universe. The total is always 0. That's a crucial point to understand, that the change (or 'stretching' if you read my last post) happens simultaneously. It must be this way to create a constant equilibrium.
The point is that they happen simultaneously. Not one then another balancing it all out, but both splitting out of their total(0), and never disrupting the balance.

That was kind of my point, that in fact it does not come from nothing but comes from something.

A virtual particle could be like a mini Big Bang. It allows matter to exist momentarily before disappearing again. The Big Bang could perhaps be considered a much more extreme and much more permanent version of a virtual particle. If the Big Bounce theory is correct, our Universe will stretch out to a maximum point, and then collapse back in on it's self. I think this is probably the most likely outcome for our Universe. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Imagine we have a special elastic fabric called the "fabric of nothing". When our piece of fabric is perfectly flat, it is in a neutral state. If we push down on the fabric and create a dent on the bottom, this lump is in a negative state. If we push up from under the fabric and create a mound, the lump is in a positive state. The fabric can only exist when it is in a neutral state on average, meaning is we make a positive bump on the top we also need to make a positive bump on the bottom. The fabric would still be in a neutral state over all. However, if we let go it will collapse (stretch back into a flat position) because it would rather be in it's natural neutral state.
Now that is a very simplistic 2D representation of a much more complex idea. What I am saying is, when you try to 'stretch' nothing into something you to "pull from both sides" with equal but opposite forces. The energy provided in the Big Bang explosion is what does the 'stretching', but the explosion happens not only in positive space but also in a seemingly abstract negative space. The Universe will eventually collapse back in on it's self and both Universes will annihilate each other, because reality wants to be at that neutral state. A virtual particle is this same concept on a much smaller scale. The reason these unexpected bursts of energy happen is simply because the chances of nothing happening in an infinite amount of time is 0, as I stated in the OP.edit on 1-11-2011 by ChaoticOrder because: (no reason given)
I'll check it out soon, when I have a little bit of time. I have enjoyed your contributions to this thread.
Wow, that's an easy way to burn up the morning. I'm gonna leave this thread for now. I'll check the progress later. I really recommend that YouTube I posted in the meantime if anyone's interested.
The 'stretching' in my example is the creation of negative or positive states. The sudden 'explosion' of energy in the normal Big Bang provides the 'work' or 'force', and represents a positive state. So then we must ask where is all that energy is coming from...HOW can it come from nothing? And that is what I have been explaining this whole time. A negative Big Bang also happens in the negative Universe simultaneously and perhaps symmetrically.
What I would like to know though, is this "stretching" or "pulling" you refer to, that is a reaction is it not? Or the work of force of somekind, which is something.. correct?
I just don't buy the idea that something appears to create something and disappears just to explain a theory... bit of a stretch in anyone's imagination but as I said earlier, if you write the rules you win.
'nothing', as I am describing it, is only 'flexible' because it can be represented in finite parts (-1 and 1 for example) which when totaled equal 0. So if nothing can be represented by discrete values, according to quantum mechanics, 'nothing' is going to eventually occupy a state where it isn't perfectly 'flat'; it will be made up of positive and negative states that equal nothing when put together.

If you think in the terms of a absolute vacuum. The vacuum becomes negative when particles are present.
So the absolute vacuum which would be neutral (neither positive or negative), actually becomes negative. Because of the particles.
In our terms a absolute vacuum would be non existent (Nothingness/infinite).

Well no, a vacuum is a vacuum which is something.
For something to be finite, positive or negative logically they exist.
This brings us really to quantum theory and chaos theory which no-one can really argue with because they are like faith, you either believe or don't.
