this is NOT a pro-creation stance but an intelligence behind the start of evolution question...
I have been studying Astronomy as a hobbie for years. I am currently working towards a BS in physics and plan on getting my MS.

From a mathimatical point of view, dark matter, other dimensions, teleportation, and other crazy "Trekie" terms do exist. (Voyager pwns)

Today, mankind is able to teleport a superatom half a meter (ez material: http://www.research.ibm.com/quantuminfo/teleportation/ ), store and retrieve binary bits on photons (Quantum computers, read more: http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~westside/quantum-intro.html )

Even though I have a very artistic and creative mind (Play violin) I like to base my logic on science. I believe in evolution. Even the finches Darwin studied have continued to evolve and will continue to.

Where did the big bang come from? The last big crunch. Do some reading.

Let me know if you got any questions about black holes, worm holes, white holes, and other thing. If you got questions about tachyon particles and what not, let me know. I will try to explain it clearly if I'm not to stoned.
