Creation or Evolution?

It's pointless to ask "What existed before the universe?" because there was no "before" the universe. Time started existing simultaneously with space. Before either existed, there was nothing. It's pointless to discuss the nothing because it's nothing, and not the "vacuum of space" nothing, I mean REAL nothing. Not white or black or anything at all.

All matter in the universe was condensed into a point so small that the pressure was enormous. Eventually it burst forth and expanded and in seconds the universe was born. Over time things randomly occurred and here we are. People don't like to think that it's random luck that we exist, so they made up reasons to make humans special. In reality it's simple probability: with the infinite number of stars out there, at least one of them was bound to develop intelligent life. More than likely there's thousands of other intelligent life forms in our own galaxy, and untold millions, billions in the universe as a whole. We'll never even be able to meet some of them because even traveling at the speed of light we could never reach the other side before the universe ended.

I like to think of it in a way more difficult yet simpler explanation. Space and beyond had no beginning. It was always there. and always will be. and since we live in a world where everything has a beginning and an end, its impossible to imagine and is a kinda scary thought.
