They state that the universe can come out of a [[quantum vacuum]], meaning there's no need for an alternate creator. But the quantum vacuum is not nothing; it is "teeming with virtual particles that constantly wink in and out of existence."<ref>[http://physics.aps.org/story/v2/st28 Physics - Focus: The Force of Empty Space], December 3, 1998, Phys. Rev. Focus 2, 28</ref> This also requires the amount of [[energy]] in the universe to be zero, due to the [[First Law of Thermodynamics]] not allowing new energy to be created. This assumption only poses more questions that must be answered by assumptions. Trying to use [[quantum mechanics]] to account for our universe is an [[ad hoc]] explanation, and ruled out by [[Occam's razor]]. | ||
