Richard,
You're absolutely correct. For the same reason, Hawking and Krauss
concluded that the universe created itself. How absurd can you get?

Most scientist accept the big bang theory, but it seems like there must
have been a spark of some kind to trigger the big bang. It's difficult
to think of something coming out of nothing.
According to Indian spiritual cosmological theories, the trigger for
creation was an /impulse/ which was caused by Vac, the god of speech,
who uttered the first sound. The idea being that every thing, substance
or entity that exists has a vibration of some kind; from this vibration
come consciousness, mind, ideas, and then name and form. So, /everything
is sound vibration/ - no matter how gross or fine.
In this philosophy of sound the supreme (spanda) subtle vibration is the
first cause, which set in motion the myriad other sounds and hence other
forms - the whole phenomenological universe is sound vibration starting
with a single primordial vibration which set the cosmos in motion.
That's the spiritual cosmological theory.

Worth a read. Woomeister Chopra challenges science to explain
consciousness with a Randi style prize. The money suggests he
feels confident that there is no scientific solution to the hard
problem of consciousness- in the same way that James Randi feels
confident there is no paranormal.
The trouble for Chopra is that, while no one has managed to
demonstrate even a tiny morsel of magical powers, we know quite a
lot about consciousness already.
Here's hoping for a swift solution to the hard problem as he's
one bullshit artist I'd like to see with some egg on his face.
And a million bucks would be a lot of egg.....
