If God didn't create the universe, then how did it just get here?

Rather than focusing on cosmological questions, I think what truly interests you is whether the universe could really have no purpose. Do I have that right?

Kind of.
I have thought that if their is no purpose for it then why even have it? I think without God, what would be the point of the universe and human existence? If it did have a point, then what is it and why did it just all of a sudden come about?

Re: Kind of.
Your Message 3 is a pretty good starting point all by itself. I'll fix this up and promote it. I'll hide your Message 1 content, but you can still see it with peek so you can feed it into the discussion as appropriate.
