Do you believe the universe has existed forever, or do you believe it come into being a finite amount of time ago in the past?

Irrelevant. That is a philosophical discussion, not a scientific one.

Science is looking at the origins, but it is by backtracking data. Not by positing a Brahma in an egg as the beginning of things.

"Irrelevant. That is a philosophical discussion, not a scientific one."

So the nature of the universe, astrophysics, cosmology are now not scientific topics, but rather irrelevant "philosophical" ones?

"Not by positing a Brahma in an egg as the beginning of things."

Not even by positing a Singularity???



Now how about answering the question? It's germane to your contention that Creation is a "myth".
