Did the Big Bang create God or did God create the Big Bang?

43. Are there possibilities that involve intelligence creating the universe?

in theory, sure.

One scientific theory proposes that a black hole results in the creation of a new universe.
A related one says that our universe could simply be the interior of a black hole.

Brane theory says that our universe "big bangs" into existence as two branes come together, then the branes grow apart until the heat death of the universes in each brane causes them to attract again, creating another big bang, on and on and on.

So, I can see in the former some civilization creates a large black hole in another universe, unknowingly, or perhaps intentionally, creating a new universe which happens to be ours. Obviously not responsible for anything that happens after (unless you can affect the physical laws of a universe in the formation of the black hole).

Or perhaps there are lifeforms that can affect the branes (pretty far-fetched).

Problem is, none of that is remotely provable (or likely can be falsified). Because we can't travel back to the beginning of the universe, and even if our universe is really the inside of a black hole that bubbled itself off from its parent universe, we can't pop through to the other side to see.

So, we can't really do anything with all of that. If there was an intelligence, it can't interact with us in any way other than having some sort of hand in creating our universe. And there's no way we can even determine if that's how our universe started. Even if we create our own black hole, we can't ever get information out of it about what's going on inside of it.
