Why does the world exist?

There seems to be many theories and explanations about "how" the world came into existence. Most religions would say that a supernatural being just made the world and the methods that were used couldn’t be understood. The scientists on the other hand, have come up with a very sophisticated explanation of how this world has evolved from nothing. Although I understand that there is enough debate on which path is true, I want to ask the question of why the world exists. According to religions, why did the supernatural create a world? According to the scientific community, why did the nothing turn into something?

sorry I havent given my oppinion on this one so I will start a new topic.

No need to start a new topic, just edit Message 1.

I already opened a new topic with a more precise title. Sorry I was not aware of that feature for some reason.
