Ok, here's a crazy theory!
What if the Big Bang wasn't the beginning but was the beginning of the end?
Before the Big Bang Matter may have been one, just one huge lump of everything, but it decayed or could no longer hold itself anymore. So it either blew apart and created the known universe that way or gradually decayed and created it slowly. But all the stars and planets are also decaying, gradually, atoms and mollecules and such like are falling away from their source so this is a lengthy decay, like a body burried in the soil. Gradually everything may just keep decaying untill theres just a mass of atoms floating about in nothingness, then maybe the atoms will break down, and it will continue to fall apart into infinately small, from something infinately large.
Dunno just a crazy idea, I'm full of them, speculations can be more fun than reality!
