*Annoyance is only slightly removed from anger. Maybe you're being intransigent. As Brent pointed out, many origin theories have a "beginning" or "start", so before that our universe didn't exist (not to be confused with the Multiverse). But then, magically perhaps, it comes into instantaneous existence having an infinite spatial extent since it's alleged to be flat. For a genius like you, there's nothing to be explained here.
