How can anything exsist?

Where did the Supernova come from? See how the statements are paradoxical? According to what we know everything has to come from something, yet for anything to exist something did originally have to come from nothing. :rasta:

Is he any relation to Albert E Neuman?

The supernova came from, oh, I forgot.

Nitrogen combusted with Oxygen and created the first-ever molecule. Or maybe it was Carbon. Eleven years ago, I knew.

I just looked it up.
Well, the age of the universe, here: Some recent studies found the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen cycle to be two times slower than previously believed, leading to the conclusion that the Universe could be a billion years older than previous estimates (via the CNO cycle).

When there was nothing, there were still gases. The gases heated up, started becoming entropic, became dense, and then fused.

In the 90's, they made more observations to prove the "Big Bang Theory" and have also discovered that the Universe is expanding at a rate twice as rapid as previously thought.

As for your Alfred E. Neumann reference, you're Cracked.

Yes, I came from materials that existed before (two diploid cells;sperm and egg), but where did they come from? My parents. Where did they come from? Etc.

You eventually get into the chicken and egg argument. So my point is still valid, but nice try. Not sarcasm at all, that was a good point.

I can answer some of these.

Heat and Density created the first atom.

Your parents came directly from your Grandparents.

The chicken is the alien. Can you imagine Humans being born in a shell?

Your still caught in the loop, no matter where you go with this you always come to the same conclusion.

Where did heat and density come from? My parents came from my grandparents, where did they come from? Where did the human race come from?

You will always be able to answer all those questions, but if you follow them back to a time where all existence was was a highly condensed area of matter, that still had to come from somewhere. If everything has to come from something, how can there have ever been nothing? But in order for for anything to exist, there has to at some point have been nothing.

So even though you are answering my questions, you aren't even breaching the surface of the greater part of the argument.
