No, you need that conversion of energy so the singularity had to exist before something triggered it to expand out.  And to Ben, you're playing with Semantics, which is fair, but we have a good idea on where our universe came from.  We just don't know what created a singularity of, as my astrophysics teacher said, infinite mass (Not sure how infinite it can be if matter is finite in the universe).  Nor do we know what set it off to expand out.

I didn't that would make sense. I was just wondering what his response would be.
