Can I share my theory of Everything? [View all]

I'm sure that this theory is not unique, but I haven't read much philosophy. Here it is. The Universe did not have a start, or beginning. The Universe has always been. If the Universe had a start, who started it? Well I'm an Atheist so the who part makes no sense to me. But, to solve it for myself, it only makes perfect sense that the Universe has always been. No bearded dude. Big Bang theory is alright, there have been an infinite number of bangs.

I know, how could something not have a beginning. Well, I don't know. But, I don't think that the Universe strives to make sense to us. Without throwing around Gods to solve the dilemma of how did it all happen, the only other alternative can be that it's always existed.

This theory has caused the Jehovah's to stop coming by. Imagine, the Jehovah's have rejected me. Strange.
