How do we exist?

Sorry I guess your ignorance is my fault then.
In a discussion, it is customary to provide arguments for one's claims, because merely alluding to them is not very convincing. I am not unwilling to concede that I may be wrong, but so far you have said nothing to indicate why.

"Why" is the question we have to answer on our own.

It is answered from within in tandem with existence.
You are not really following the discussion, it seems.

Unless science finds it out.

If the Big Rip theory is right, there will "nothing" again.

I edited that post to include that we must find the answer in tandem with existence.

My personal beliefs are that reincarnation DOES exist, however knowing it exists serves no practical use. Heaven is a state of mind in an everlasting cycle.

Its because I already know the answer while you guys are still finding it out.

I'm partial to the idea that this universe has existed multiple times, and it keeps coming back til everything is perfect, like the creator is OCD

The universe doesn't need a creator because everything works without one. Science can explain why earth is the way it is making use of their knowledge of the Fundamental Forces. People tend to oversimplify things, bringing up a creator like god. The truth is, it is much more difficult than philosophers 3500 years ago thought. Answer me one question: If a creator made everything, who made the creator then?

I actually have something on this, and I haven't completely figure out where the line of creators begin.

I'm not going to hold your hand I've provided enough support for my argument about time.

We did.

Yet existence still exists for some reason.

Then how do you explain why the world population increased by factor of 7 in the past century? Where did all these people suddenly come from?

The universe is highly mathematical, which don't make any sense at all. Scientists have always claimed nothing existed during the universe's infancy, neither matter, energy or space time, then what could have caused the Big Bang, assuming m theory isn't true, shouldn't big bangs happen more frequently since there is more information to utilize, in the formation of another super atom. I like to imagine the universe uses some kind of cosmic RNG that process information which decides what gets created and what gets destroyed via big bangs. This would in turn point to a simulation generated by either advanced extraterrestrial beings, or a supreme being.
