How was the Universe created

Do you believe in religous teachings, or scientific

Religious teaching are pure bullshits, requiring wizards, magic and talking animals. Never had any actual outcome apart of keeping us back.

I would go with science, simply it's based on knowledge and has real world applications (you are reading it on computer aren't you?).

Big Bang Theory may not be the final one or it's just a part of more complex one but still I would go with it rather than bronze age idiocy.

Do I believe primitive illiterate sheep herders who thought the earth was flat, the stars were holes in the sky, and heard voices in their head? Or do I believe individuals generally with higher than average intelligence who approach these questions using mathematics and experiment?

I actually think the premise of the question is wrong, a result of our own mortality and limited perspective.

Our conscious has a clear beginning and a clear end so we project these properties on everything around us.

In reality creation is a myth. All the things that make up everything have always existed and it is simply a matter of chemical, physical, and nuclear actions and reactions which result in what we see and experience around us.

I can nearly prove this with one simple question.

Show me one thing which has ever ceased to exist completely.

If you cannot, if something cannot cease to exist completely, it is reasonable to assume something also cannot be created.

I think It wasn't. :)

i think it was a combination of both religion and science for.. say God did start the big bang and then just decided to let evolution and natraul selection take place.. It would take billions of years for a species to evolve a complex thought process after humans being the smartest i would say doolphins would be the next closest thing to a organism having a complex thought process

No one was around to see it, so, the only logical answer is, "I don't know."
