Why is it less possible that the Universe was created by a man in another dimension? And he caused quantum fluctuations that made this universe. Is that less possible? How so?

well eventually their must have been a creator for the other “man” in another universe, prime mover argument simply expanded.right?

For all I know we could be the product of advanced life form who made us and the universe in a laboratory hundreds of billions of years ago, but as for me, I choose to believe that our triune God created mineral, animal, human, angelic life out of nothing some time ago (anywhere from 6000 years
to millions of years ago). I’ve a question for you: how do you know you’re alive, perhaps this is all just an illusion or you’re just an unaware extra in the endless dream of an imaginary giant? Just being facetious here but you’re not gonna get an irrefutable answer to your question, you’re basically free to believe whatever you fancy, rightly or wrongly.

Aby:
That would mean that we would have to have created ourselves. Because we’re here. Now. And, if that were so, we would have to have existed before we existed. Otherwise, we could not have created. Anything. Much less the entire universe. And ourselves.
God bless,

There is absolutely no evidence that a man has ever created a universe.
Less possible than what?

It severly begs the question, questions that other posters have well pointed out. What reasons do we have to beleive this? A possibility is a good thing to explore but to simply throw it out at say a theist or something without good reason, I am not saying you are doing this (you are just asking a question), is irrelevant. When we have sufficient reason to beleive it than and only then will be a question that must be answered.

The weird thing is, there are scientists who’ve speculated about creating “universes” in the laboratory through “Chaotic Inflation theory”, like MIT cosmologist Alan Guth below;
“Guth has explored whether it’s in principle possible to ignite inflation in a hypothetical laboratory, thereby creating a new universe”

Interesting but it seems like mere semantics to me. His theory defines a universe by this inflationary view, not that that is what most people mean by the term. He is simply stacking the deck, this quantum inflation would satisfy his definition of a universe but it may be nothing comparable to what we all experience and understand as a universe. It might no teven be possible.

I’m not saying it is possible or that I buy into it, just about all of modern cosmology that speculates on what ***caused ***the Big Bang is just wild unsupported speculations, fantasies, just-so stories, and guesses dressed up as “theories”. But it is the awkward state of the current science that well respected physicists at MIT present these theories as if they have any relation to empirical evidence.
Anyway, the O.P. doesn’t look so crazy when you compare it to some of the “theories” out there.

Fair enough. I just am skeptical, from a philosophical point of view, over what seems to be semantical theories, that is all.
