The origin of the universe

             Throughout the years, mankind has examined the universe for signs of its origin. For centuries, two possibilities have been the subject of much debate.

Therefore, they have formed their own view of how the universe came into existence. Many atheists believe that by chance, our universe was the product of a "super universe that creates other universes" ("General Introduction to Non-Believers" 3). In turn, the super universe created a "hypothetical 'multiverse' spinning off infinity of other universes" ("Non-Believers" 3). However, there is no evidence that supports this super universe theory.
