Hey guys!
As of lately, I've indulged deeply into the entire affair of Quantum Mechanics, field theories and the like, all in an attempt to comprehend how the universe came out to be, what caused it, and what is it's ultimate fate.
Despite my sincere efforts, and after reading plenty of all-encompassing materials about elementary particle, superstring theories (supersymmetry and the like), multiverse universes, etc, I'm still having some issues.
More concretely, about a month ago i began to realize that perhaps the "all-knowing, all-powerful, all-good" notion of god is severely lacking in several distinct ways: the quantum fluctuation idea (virtual particles) entangled me with the concept of creation of "empty space", and perhaps the stencil of "god" could be supplemented by "quantum fluctuations and quantum fuzziness".
My question to you is the following: if the universe was indeed created out of nothing (vacuum, courtesy of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle), then what exactly was beforehand? what governs the quantum fluctuations? now i agnize that it's the beauty of quantum theories that remains an undeciphered mystery for many centuries now, but unless the Casimir effect as they say (hope I'm not scrimmaging those two up) had a reason to be excited, it all regresses to the very beginning.. who says it's legible for quantum mechanics to govern it all?
I'm a bit perplexed here guys, so i could use some help.
Wholeheartedly, Dima
