OK with that? If so you may proceed, or else don't even bother to read. :)

What is this universe all about?
By Chris "AlbaX"
====================
The Creation of Universe
So to start off I am going to ask you one question. Why did the universe exist? This question has been so age old that we even forgot when was it asked in the first place. So why is the universe really here?
According to scientists and experts in other fields, the universe was created in a Big Bang, and it's expansion was accelerating since and is estimated to be at least 93 billion light years across. Since the Big Bang until now, the universe is believed to be 13.73±0.12 billion years old.
If you are a man of science you would have believed in those facts, and to be honest the facts are convincing enough. But then again, refer to my first question, why bother to exist when it saves trouble not to exist?
Ask any religious man, who are in total objection of the science facts ever since history, and they'll point their finger at God. They'll say," God created everything, sowed the universe with life, dictated every pass present and future." And then I'll ask again and again and again, why bother to create the universe that is so infinite and impossible to govern. God did it for the trouble? God did it to occupy their time?
In another theory, it stated that our universe is just one of the multiverse that existed by the same method of birth, the Big Bang. Each universe is different from one another, governed by different physics laws and constants, and matters so different from the ones in our universe exists in those that it's unimaginable.
This theory, if combined with the God theory plus a theory of my own, may just sound more logical than ever. Look. Gods are timeless and supreme angelic spirits, they are ageless, their existence and birth is as a mystery as the question as I asked, and they are bored. Get where I'm going? Look on.
Note that I wrote "Gods" instead of "God" because in my theory, many Gods existed outside the universe. So what happens when you get dozens of holy supreme being bored to death in a timeless dimension? They'll try to find things to occupy themselves of course, and maybe while trying, one of them suggested that they have a little competition on building the best universe and whoever wins will have bragging rights among the Gods. And so they started to mould their universes, this is correct to the theory that multiverse exist.
And starts this little story that I wrote about the universe.
One God, created our universe. He set how things would work in this universe, and thus creating the physics laws and contants that we know today. He tried to create things from just a handful of materials the Gods can use, it is the protons neutrons and some other elementary particles known in science. Then when he was satisfied, he gave birth to our universe with a little fireworks process, the Big Bang, which is the only way known to Gods to create a new space.
He looked overthe universe, and it was full of hydrogen atoms ( the simplest element ) bouncing around and then hit each other to form helium molecules according to the law the God set. In a few billion years later, the first stars are born, giving light to the universe, and few billion years after the stars came together to form galaxies.
It went smoothly like how the god set the universe, but it was all so empty, hollow to be precise. The stars and galaxies would surely impress other Gods, but he doubt that it will be unique, he was desperate to outstand. And so he breathed in life, not directly as any religious facts stated, but by tweaking the physics law a little, he made some elements into the known "organic" elements, Hydrogen, Carbon, Oxygen, and Nitrogen. In his modification, the elements can bind in many ways to create what we know as cells and the organelles.
And so the real story began. He sowed life in some new formed planets, and then he came to Earth. Nothing was really special about Earth, in his mind it's "just another petri dish of life" that can be used to impress other Gods. But of all the life he spread, only a handful survived, one being the Earth.
Then again, what's the purpose of those cells when it's just some things that can wiggle around? No, the God thought, he will need something of a grander scale, a chronicle to tell his fellow Gods. So he started to write on the path of history of the universe, in one of those included a large section specially for the lives. Yes, what I meant is that everything was decided by God in the first place, and that the freedom of choice is just an illusion.
He bothered to create all this to present a good show to his fellow Gods. But soon, one rogue God whose name was Satan saw what theGod was creating. He was jealous because his own universe wasn't as good, so he tried countless of times to wreck all God'shardwork. Satan went corrupting minds of the lives, and soon led them into suicidal destiny. The lives died one by one in planets, God decided that he had to act fast.
Then came Satan to Earth, like what he does, he corrupted the minds, but God interfered this time to undo Satan's plan, he visited Earth in his avatar form and introduced a set of rules to the dominat life, Human. The set of rules was written by God himself to counter weak mind, that he it think will stop Satan's mind corruption.
The rules was not passed directly to every human because he found a better solution to save time and attention. Instead he passed it down to prophets who will then spread the rules for God and he will then be free to worry about other worlds and tend to the universe. Over the course of history he visited Earth a few times to check on things, and then pass the set of rules to another prophet who would then help to speed things up.
And so with this he was able to surpress Satan's corruption and then God himself can continue to watch over the growth of his universe.
===================================================================
Act Two of the Story
Prophets did a great help to spread the set of rules, though not everyone agreed with accepting it. Over the span of years God visited Earth a few times and elected a few prophets to do his bidding, some being Moses, Jesus, Prophet Muhammad, and even Siddhārtha Gautama.
So if all of them are prophets of the same God, why did they spread different religions? Why not only a single religion exist? Why different holy scripts like The Bible or Qu'ran?
And answer is fairly simple and can be explained by science itself. Have you ever played a game where messages are transfered and relayed from one another in a line and see how close to the original message does the person at the end of the line can tell? The person will almost always say something ridiculous and not similar to the original message. The result is always consistent, is that the more the message is relayed and passed, the less detailed it will be.
So can this be used to explain the difference between religions even though there's only one God? The answer is yes. Due to the factor that I've stated and a few others factor like language being used in a particular region, geographical terrains that created isolation of civilisations, and difference of race and ethnic, I have enough reason to conclude that my statement is as realistic as any others can be.
So in my opinion, every religious icon, their prophets received a same set of rules from the God himself. Some interpreted it differently and spread different sayings, but it is still similar to the actual one refering the moral values. So in truth, God actually knew that this would happen, but it didn't go too well than he expected when his creations are all fighting against each other for the difference in religion, physically or verbally. They all fought for their own religion, stating that the real God gave mandate to their religion only and others are imposters.
So....Think about it...Is the differentiation really necessary now that you've read what I wrote?
And here ends my article for today. I hope that I has changed your perception. Even though I still believed in Buddha as the real boss of gods XD...

P.S. I am meaning to say that we are actually fishes in an aquarium or animals in a zoo. Nothing more.
