Where'd that energy come from?

Where that energy come from is still 100% unclear.

Oh no.

But there are some guesses.

We know where it came from.

Came from Jesus.

Well, that's part of the problem, right?

A lot of people do, in fact, have a problem with that Big Bang cosmology at that early time because there seems to be no way for us to explain that injection of energy any way other than some sort of divine supernatural activity.

But if we were to do that, then we'd just be like, oh, okay, we've given up on science.

We're not going to try to figure out how it actually works.

Let's just go home and have a drink and forget about it.

So we refuse to sort of give up and just say, oh, it was something that we'll never be able to understand.

It was some divinity or it was some supernatural thing.

So if we try to think about nature, then the way you can actually inject energy has to do with something called spontaneous symmetry breaking.

Neil, have you told our distinguished Patreons about the fundamental forces in the universe?

Assume no.

Assume no.

Yeah.

Okay.

Assuming no.
