I agree with trestres. I think that is a much more logically satisfying explanation for our existence than to accept that our universe came out of nothing by itself.

It wasn't from nothing!

I've said this 3 times now.
So who or what made that matter?

Didn't I say I don't know the source?

I can understand your reasoning and it makes some sense, but is that your reasoning for God? The fact that we can't prove matter's source?

That's the thing though. Unless we know the source of matter I interpret it as matter coming from God. Think of it as a starting point. We cannot prove or disprove it but at least we have a lead to go to. Even if God isn't what we all assume to be, whether God is an omniscient being or everything in the universe, we can use this interpretation to eventually lead us to the truth.

There are many things that science does not know the answer to. These are just some of the things.

Neither of us can be sure that we're right in regards to the source of these things. It's a completely moot point to argue.
