A Steady State of Little Bangs
It seems to me that deeper we look to smallers scale the more energetic the particles appear to be. Deep below the subatomic level space-time appears to consist of a seething cauldron of high energy particles zipping around, popping in and out of existence.
Now every point in space contains huge numbers of these high energy particles locked up inside the atoms. So it occurred to me, what if the big bang did not happen at one point in time, but is actually continually occurring today at the subatomic level. Space-time may seem sedate to us because we are observing it far away at a much higher scale, just as the surface of the Sun seems uniform until we look up close. So what if the big bang is instead an infinitely large number of little bangs occuring at the subatomic level at every point in space. And perhaps each little bang produces electromagnetic radiation that all together on a cosmic scale acts as dark matter pushing the universe to expand to ever greater scales.
So What Caused The Creation Of The Universe
What if the universe is a huge blackhole and we are located inside it. This universe may have been born by a macro star in a macro universe collapsing into a blackhole at the end of its life.
Maybe the stars in the night sky can potentially spawn the next generation of universes.
A fractal universe (see other post) eliminates the need for singularites. We along with everything else in the universe may be continually contracting (lorenz lenght contraction) at the centre of the blackhole universe. From this point of view we would be contracting relative to the observable universe, but note the observable universe would still be expanding away relative to us.
If the universe formed from the inside of a blackhole wouldn't the birth of the universe have formed in a cold enviroment. Forget the accreation disk, I'm talking about the inside of the blackhole. Note a blackhole does not emit any light... or heat from inside the event horizon. Surely the centre of the blackhole is very cold. Is a blackhole and the therefore the universe a Bose-Einstein Condensate?

The universe knows nothing about cause and effect because they are merely human constructs. Our human proclivity to label events as either cause or effect is very useful to us, but not to the universe. Conjecturing a big bang as an ultimate cause has to be judged on its usefulness. For me it, raises more questions about dark matter, expansion rates, age of the universe, and edges to the universe, than it answers.
