The law of conservation of energy states that matter can not be created or destroyed, only changed..
This claim of ancient physics is very entertaining. My dumb question is: when did we decide that energy ever existed? So far in no field of physics I see the existence of energy – ready to be changed into matter and back in energy and all over again. I may be far behind in my knowledge, but in my time they always were talking about the differential of energy, about energy only as a result produced (consumed) in a motion between state A and state B, the differential between the absolute zero and whatever. In order to observe electricity you need + and -, in order to observe heat you need difference in temperatures, water has to fall – difference in levels, steam (gas) has to expand – difference in volumes etc…. The universe is expanding due to the differential observed by a certain observer, but not due of an original existence of energy. Wherever we go, we run into the original cause, observer. Somebody had to make the difference. Somebody had to make ''a volume'' for expansion.
You can change A into B, but you cannot change B back into A – this is the universal reality of the universe. In the ‘’known to us and observed by us”’ a.k.a. “closed’’ universe energy dissipates, all processes are irreversible. At the point of the thermodynamic death of the universe there is a predicted big ‘’ nothing”’ (rewriting the 3rd time: “nothing” is not 100% nothing – but only how we can imagine it as an absence of any difference, “nothing” = no difference.)The universe expands and it is loosing its energy = equalizing the differentials, - when all differentials are equalized there will be no energy; - unless a supernatural (unobserved, non-existing in the known universe) entity is involved in the process ( call it whatever – another universe, dimensions (where nothing is something, - it is not observed and it does not live according to our laws) . One runs into the entity again. (in terms of quantum mechanics the picture would be a lot more complicated – but the general meaning is the same, again we run into a cause of fluctuation…. Big Bang points that there was a beginning when things started from some kind of “nothing”)
So my next dumb question is: if to imagine the universe where there is no movement on any level (unresolved and symmetrical quantum fluctuations or no difference=no energy in the predicted end of our universe) – does time still exist? When there is “’nothing”’ does time still flows? – If there is the ‘’third observer’’ of the “nothing”.
God created the Universe. Who did create G-d? Another G-d. Who did create another
G-d? Another G-d….Does it makes sense? No. The conclusion is: there is no G-d who created the Universe. My dumb question is – how is it possible to arrive to such a conclusion? 5<6 is enough. 5<6=6=6=6=6 does not make sense. G-d created the Universe. G-d is more than U. There is a difference between G-d and U. 6-5=1. There is no difference between G-d and another G-d. There is no sense of saying that another G-d created G-d. If there was such a difference or if it was possible or imaginable or observable it would be also possible to look for G-d#2 who created G-d#1. The property of the Biblical G-d, who created everything and the Universe and who is indefinite and eternal does not let us to imagine that there may be another G-d whose properties may be different and may be more than the properties of the Biblical G-d. (Another G-d may be equal and co-existent but he cannot not be a Creator of the Creator of Everything and the Universe.) U<G=G=G=G…. Or simply U<G. Period. End of story, unless one enjoys piling nonsense. There is no possibility to find another G1 whose properties may be different from G. There is no G1 who created G. There is no need to go beyond of what make sense. There is no need for nonsense. On other hand god of the sun, or god of healing or god of war and all other gods allow existence of G-d who created them in the Universe, because they have different properties….and there is the essential difference between any of them and the G-d who created everything and the Universe.
Why are we still asking all dumb questions, searching in the dark of our ignorance, inventing home made answers?....There is nothing new in what we are talking about… Thomas Aquinas, Isaac Newton, Gottfried Leibniz, Galileo Galilei, George Berkeley, Nicole Oresme – the most powerfull minds were discussing all these things including relativity and dualism of time..and big bang.. – long time ago . It turns out that in our upbringing and in our education and in our general TV mass media enviroment these giants of human thoughts have been cut out from our minds by the dull grey iron cirtain of atheism/dialectical materialism. Spinoza may be OK, but Leibniz is –no,no, even if you study math…Aristotle is OK, but Newton is–no,no… only if you want to critisize and tell us that Newton is uneducated and mistaken if to compare to our knowledge.In our studies we are not allowed to look to their side, any human thought leading to their ideas has been banned or, at least, ridiculed in our education... you would not get a degree in biology, if you look there …our minds are in chains, we cannot doubt the strange idea called godforsuredoesnotexist—we are encouraged to go in this direction only if we promise to bring back the conclusion that godisamythwhichdoesnotexist…and thereisnoindicationofgod… I have no reason to believe that human mind would be tolerating these chains and limitations for too long…
In my homemade reasoning, I feel like a little idiot , so ignorant and uneducated, - if to compare to Newton. I have so many questions to ask him, but I am always running of time, taking care of everyday things. Still, in spite of the bloody traces of the chains on my mind I feel that I have been saved. The brain damage could be a lot worse, if I did not open the Bible once and didn’t find out Who was that supernatural being out of our world.

Matter is a philosophical category designating the objective reality which is given to man by his sensations, and which is copied, photographed and reflected by our sensations, while existing independently of them."
