Well we COULD be a little less harsh on Hope here.
So.... Asking for proof and saying we disagree with someone telling us we're all wrong and all evidence is wrong is harsh?
Points of scientific method aside, the real question asked is, if everything came from nothing, then what created the nothing? It's as old a question as the chicken and the egg.
What do you mean by "nothing"? There is literally not example of "nothing" in the universe.
Many physicists are talking now about the 'God particle,' subatomic anomalies that cannot be explained with current scientific models. They operate outside the known laws of physics and perhaps are doorways to other dimensions.
That is not at all what the God particle its. It's the Higgs boson, a particle that creates a field that gives other particles mass. It was predicted BY the known laws of physics.
Also, based on observations, the laws we know about and using mathematical particles, we KNOW there are more particles out there.
They simply can't express that view publicly, as it would cause them to lose credibility in the scientific community.
Wrong again. What they lose credibility for is bringing their religious beliefs into the lab.
